Yea i think we should be able to own more than one ship because what if you want a fighter ship but like one of those multi person ships also. You would have to deal with one and not both. I personally think that we should have at least 10 ships that we could own. This my opinion though ofcoarse!!!

Ok Guys, I must have missed it somewhere and it's driving me bonkers.....
Does Anyone know What resources building the ships will take AND how many units total and are we, that are going to be building these ships, have to spend millions of credits on the resources, which will be jacked up so high it will make us dizzy...I have heard talk already that people will be charging a min. of 20 million Creditsjust for the smaller ships...I can honestly say thatNONE of MY ships willEVER be that expensive...not even the large ones.
I am already getting orders, so I would like to know a head of time....
If anyone knows....PLEASEEE let me know what to expect and to look forward to....do I need to start killing myself over the cost of resources now.... (20+ houses for storage...where will I put it all. o_O)
I was told that it is going to take 40,000units of just ONE resource, and that's not ALL the resources...for just a SMALL ship....
IF what I was told IS true, than those of us that are not so Billionare-like... 
are going to have to charge the Stupid price of 20 million...think of all the players that would like to try it out and won't be able to because this is going to Cater to only the Extremely stupidly Filthy Rich people....*sighs*
are going to have to charge the Stupid price of 20 million...think of all the players that would like to try it out and won't be able to because this is going to Cater to only the Extremely stupidly Filthy Rich people....*sighs*Hope someone can give me a heads up on the resources thing and the amounts...otherwise...I'll be thinking this is another ploy from the devs to riun the game... :'(
I can be reached with an in-game email toRYNNN (with 3 N's).
Thanks to everyone for their help.
AND A FREE BUMP

If people are gonna be charging millions of credits for ships, nobody except the super-rich will be able to get them. The devs don't want this, so if they find the ships are costing too much they'll lower the resource requirements.

I seriousely hope so, because for someone to claim they are going to make billions off of people with these ships...that's just outragious...BUT look at the AV-21's...anywhere from 7 to 20 million for the cars put together, and 2 to 5 or 6 million just for the power plant, I was able to scrap enough up and went Broke spending 2.5 million to get my husband his Brand new car...Cost didn't matter to me because it made him happy.
But the cost of some things are ridicules, and I can honestly say, that yes, even I got carried away and sold some things for millions...but...it was what the going rate was and I was shocked when someone bought 2 rugs from me...an ornate rug for 2.6 mil, and an orange rug for 3 mil.
If the resources are going to be 40k units for one part and say 30k units for another on just one small ship...I can say that people will be charging not only all your limbs, and first bourne, but the rest of the family too...including the cat and dog...A lot of things are very expensive, and I have offered free ships to just a very Limited few of my dearest mates...But I'm not going to charhe someone so much that they won't be able to enjoy the JTL...
I am even willing to take Resources as part of a payment, and I'm fearing that...it's going to require Factoury crates of Identical items... *hates making factoury Crates* which in again brings us to cost...the cost of those components to make, and the energy to run your factoury, and the time put in.
Let's hope the devs get it right this time and Hope they cut down on the amounts as I was advised on.
It will be nice to allow everyone to try it.
lol and I'm always willing to work out deals...After all Crystals (Coloured) are my Specialty. 
(No I collect them not Give them away...80+ coloured crystals and counting)

& to 20 million for a AV21? Nah, that's an exageration. The thing only costs as much as the power plant basically. The most I can see these ships costing it double their actual value. When vehicles came out I can't really think of anything more that double what it is now. And even then, you're going to have a lot of people with ships already with the veteran thing, so crafters will have to lower their prices because of that. And also, rugs, AV21's, etc are all loot items. Ships are going to be crafted. That's why they'll be expensive at first, but will assuredly go down in price.
