Thread: Good Idea for XP Merchant ?
Eya My holo said master merchant uhm lol =)
Cause i sell resource, can be good idea for make very fast xp, put vendor in my house with access fee of 1 credits and say to all that i sell high quality resource at 1 Cr ?
Or have better idea ?
ty for suggestion
yeah but i need to involve people to visit my vendor, and what better idea than high quality resource at 1 cpu 
)
Not really. Here is the problem that you'll run into:
A) You make something so small that people won't bother coming ot buy it: (Selling stim-packs As!!!!) No thanks, not running 1km to buy that!
B) You make something so big, that even if someone comes to buy it, it's a one time purchase only (create of Stim-Bs), new pistol, etc.
No one will come running to buy resources at 1 credit, because they'll assume it's a lie, or the person in front of them will buy them all up. You need thousands of visits to get your xp, it's really not worth it, imho, to try to get people into your houses in a true "merchant" style of play.
My suggestion: Spend your time in/around your vendors getting ready for your next holocron. Making credits or collecting and stockpiling resources.
False advertising is a baaaaaaad idea for 2 reasons.
1. People will know you lied upon checking your vendor and then word spreads.
2. If you did actually sell nice resources at 1cpu you would destroy a very lucrative market for many people.
You mentioned that you already sell resources so just stick to that and you shouldn't do too badly. I sell more resources than med supplies at any given time.
I've been playing with this idea but when it comes to resources it just ownt work. You can stack resources and thus one person can buy out you're entire stock.
Someone mentioned to me a better idea. Sell Hi-quality power ups. They are cheap, once you take them out of a crate they can't be restacked. So someone might rush in and buy up 50 all at once but then they need to use them up before buying more thus leaving behind more for others to buy.
Food is another good one. Also with new player cities cheap furniture isselling like hot cakes.
There are ways to be legit and get that XP rolling in.
Who would take the trouble though to buy unstacked weapon powerups?
This to me would be like running out and buying unstacked stimpacks. They are nearly worthless to me, and that 500 or 1km run meansI just won't even try.

Why not just make more powerups? You know you can sell those things for a HUGE profit above the resources because they are very useful and making good ones is an art....I mean if you want people to show up..you might try actually having something they want to buy.
If you dont' care about that then stop trying to get people to show up for the sales and just pay people to come buy and trigger your entry fee.
May bounty hunters be on you thicker than sand fleas on a bantha lol =)
