Well you can check the trade forums here for an idea fo what sort of price to sell things for.



Also, if you find out the names of other Rangers on your server, you could get in touch with them to find out what prices they are charging.

I visit the trade forums, actuall troll them, and find out what the going price is. I know a few non-Rangers that harvest quite a bit. I find out what they are selling and undercut them. Yes, that is kinda of brutal, but we are not "rich" profession if you go by just the skills we have. Plus this makes a me a loyal customers in the process.

I hate to say it but with a large enough stack of a single resource, you can pretty much charge whatever you like within reason. As long as there are still hologrinders and you advertise enough ...you'll sell it all. I look it more like: My time alone is worth 10 cpu ....so I start there and then take into consideration the stats of the resource.


You may think ...whoa ..nothing lower than 10 cpu ..you're nuts?! But no ....I've actually sold a ton of organics ...primarily because I harvest into nothing less than 25k or so stacks.

I have my first aution on 5 k of GOOD herbivore meat up now, usually sell small amounts on the Bazars.


This is how i calculate the 30 cpu (hope to get more offcourse):


I spent 9 hours in total doing this:


3 x buffs @12 k = 36 000

6 x travel @ 4,4 k = 26 400 (had to go from Endor to Corellia to get buffs)


That isatotal of expenses 62 400. Leaving a "profit" of 87 600, if you divided that by 9 hours you get 9,7 kcph.I can easily do 2 5 k missions while buffed in one hour, sometimes 3. I use that in the caluclation of my profits/selling price.

I'm with Darth, any crafter with money (the kind you need ) is looking for double or triple digits stacks for his factory runs. If you build up a relationship with a couple of them (chefs/be's are nice because they use a wider variety of resources, better chance of good stuff around for them) you'll get a steady income at good prices. Good suppliers with larger stacksare very hard to come by for crafters so my experience is that they'll pay more then the usual offers you'll see shouted at the sp or contracted on the trade forum. The more you can deliver, the more you can name your price.

I've been having good results selling at the bazzars. Split into 100-200 size lots and sell 'em high. No quick credits but good long term results.
