I have tat wolly hide with 997 OQ (sorry I forget the other stats)
and tat leather hide with 950 (ish)
What should I sell these for and who is my target market?
1 more question. To make any money as a ranger, is avian meat the only thing worth harvesting?
thanks.

lol avian meat is definately NOT the only way to make money. Various people will be after different things, some will want a specific hide, others a specific meat.
At the moment, on chimaera, current endor carnivore meat is going for 50cpu and Dantooine carnivore meat at 40cpu.
20K of endor carn meat = 1 million credits. Not bad at all

Sell the hide to armorsmiths (you can also barter a nice set of armor for free too)
some armorsmiths pay out the wazoo for good hide..
I honestly prefer to sell to the friendly non-uber rich AS's... they need a chance to compete with the other ones.
(dont mean to come off like a socialist)

Actually, both those hides would be worthless to an armorsmith, if it has a low Shock Resist. However, the market for plain high OQ is good with chefsand bioengineers.

One thing that you can do is read the post "A Pricing Guide for Animal Resources" of Volsted. Let's say that with that formulayou get a price of25 cpu.
Then lurk the Trade Froums of your server and look for auctions post (WTB/WTS Want To Buy or Want To Sell). If you find that the selling price is 100 cpu.Voila! you know that you should multiply by 4 the prices that you get with the formula of Volsted.
Other way is just to make an auction in the trade forums.
Hope it helps.

Just remember that everything you harvest is worth something to somebody. Even bone, I am under contract right now for a few stacks of endor avain bone, 20-30cpu, depending on stats.
Remember to check some creatures for loot. Lizards, barakset, give scales. Kliknik gives hearts. Some animals have lootable things that some people are looking for every now and again.

So true. I know as a B-E I have need of the following things from rangers:
Milk
Avian Bone
Scaley Hide
Carnivore Meat
Domesticated Meat
Herbivore Meat
Insect Meat
Reptillian Meat
Wild Meat
Dathomirian Insect Meat
and Fish
We care all about Flavor, PE, and OQ
My needs as a doctor are almost as diverse. I'm good friends with an armorsmith/chef, and his needs are similar in type, different in stats. We actually created a spreadsheet to document what we needed, and everyone searches swgcraft for the stats they're interested in on a daily basis. I use my MTKA/ranger 0/0/4/0/Merchant to get as much as we can (pair that with the pistoleer/ranger 0/0/4/0/CH and we get a *lot* of meat/hide/etc). I know for a fact armorsmiths and docs pay the most (to answer your question about how to make money), since the armorsmith can sell the uber armor for major cash and the doc is already making tons of cash off the meats they use in the forms of buff packs (or selling their stimpacks/curepacks).
