It might vary per server but given what I've seen the AV speeder sell for, up in the millions on Lowca. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm saving up anyway. If you have a friend who's planning on becoming a shipwright, see what they can do for you after they master. Keep in mindthe devs have said it takesa master shipwright to craft this, so it's a top of the line craft. Hope that was at least somewhat helpful.

It's been stated that a YT-1300 will take roughly the same amount of resources as a PA Hall, with many times the fun andversatility. With that in mind, I honestly can't see them going for less than 500k.

yt-1300's will probably cost ALOT at the begining, but as it goes on, they probably will sell for a bit less... right now all the shipwrights out there know that people want em, and can charge a bit more until everyone has one, then they gotta do it for less... i personaly dont care for one and would prefer a nice x-wing, b-wing, or a-wing over it.. those by all technical terms should be considerably less resources taken, and thus less money to buy...

if you want a YT-1300 wait a couple weeks unless you got tons of money to spare.
the grinders will be the first offering it and like PA Halls in the beginning will be selling them for crazy amounts of credits. give it time and more and more shipwrights will come slowly bringing the price down to reasonable levels. until then, have fun in a nice X-Wing of TIE

I hope that they are pretty expensive. Remember, it was a big deal to get your own ship, and a new YT1300 transport is top of the line for its class. In all of the Star Wars short stories, such as the "Tales From" series, it seemed like a big deal for a person to get his first freighter. Here's hoping for realism.

The YT-1300 will have roughly the same resource requirements as a PA Hall. At 55k resources for most halls and 65k for Generic PA Halls we could be looking at anything as cheap at 165k credits to a million plus depending on the market.
You have to remember, the YT-1300 is a moving house and an icon of the Star Wars universe. People will cheerfully give up their first born to get one. The truly insane.. ah dedicated grinders might be able to provide them by the end of the first day, but they will be the ones that fully expect to recoup the cost of their grind by taking it out of their customers bank accounts before the market floods with new Master Shipwrights trying to outsell the others with slightly cheaper prices.

From what I've seen and heard it will take about as many resources as a Guild hall, so you can expect the same price when guild halls were uncommon and architects were rare, 500k.

I would not have a problem paying 500k, few days on dath would do it
We all have a little over a month to save

...More than that
A few months at least, if they get it out in time(rare in any game)
Betas out in August, and money and XP will probably be easier to get to balance out the regular charwiping and short time.
