I dont get it, do people just not understand how to use the Bazaar? I'm an Artisan and every time i go to buy hides about 75% of all the Hides up for sale are Auctions. Why in the world would i want to bid and wait 6 DAYS to get hides for an item that i need to craft today! Can youimagine going to the Bazaar and spending your hard earned cash on a Rifle only to have to wait SIX DAYS to use your new hardware? Do i need to go learn Novice Scout to just cutthese delinquent Scoutsout of the loop?


Spread the word to your fellow Scouts, sell your resources on the Bazaar as instant transactions. You get your money faster and we get our resources faster.

Not only that, but sell them in greater quantities than 5. We need bulk and will pay for it.

I did it. A newb mistake although it wasn't hide or bones. I just wanted to try out the bazaar so Iinstantsold something I foraged for 5 credits. I had no idea it was going to cost me 20 to put up the sale.


Live and learn.

I don't want to be accused of price fixing, which is illegal, but what are some suggest prices for hides in the diffenent sizes for instance if I wanted to sell 50 hides how much could I get, then 100, 200, 500 so on. And what about bones?

I'm guilty too. Didn't know what fair price would be.

You couldn't price fix even if you wanted to. People will sell for their stuff for watever they can get for it regardless of what other people are doing.


In answer to your question, whatever the market will bear. I've seen people say they will not pay over 4 credits for anything and I've seen people happily pay 10 for those same items.


My suggestion would be to hang around in newbie areas, hospitals and cantinas and just listen to the world around you. I'm sure fair prices are already established.

The highest you should sell hides (i.e. The demand is very high) is 5c per hide.



Ive seen people selling 50 hides for 1000c which is crazy, no Artisan could make money from those.

Is there anyway to break up a set of hides or bone or whatever?
I've got a set of hides and stuff, but it's not an
even amount. I have like 41 hides but I'd like to keep
some for camps. Can I break up the amount to sell
or in my inventory some way?
Thanks.

If you wanna split your items just double click them. It will give you a slider bar (you can type in the amount too) to adjust the amount to be created in the new title.



As far as price goes, I've been getting about 700c for 100 Bone or Hide. I'm sure this will go down when there is a glut of armor out there.



Also an important thing to remember. You can command more money for higher quality resources. i.e. I hunt on Tatooine and Avian bone has a quality of about 50 something, where Animal is around 900 (I think) This makes a huge difference in the quality of the items created. Same thing goes for weapons.



Good luck all Malachy

Not all auctions are 6 days long. You can edit that ya know? I threw up some as an auction but only made it last 30 minutes, to drive the anticipation up.
