Well last night I finally made MSW, took a while searching for resources. Cant believe players on Chim are selling steel for 15cpu just becuase the OQ is over 900. When will ppl learn.
Thankfully I joined a guild the other day and a member kindly sold me steel at 2cpu. Not bad either. Might go onto buisness together.
Already has some requests for YT1300's.
Q. what do you sell yours at, Chimaera does not have many is space and I want to change that. I currently sell my ships at 2.5cpu. So a YT-1300 and other multu-player ships would sell for 300k. Im not in it for the money more to get newbies and vets back into space.

I also mastered SW last night with an alt, now I'm in the process of gathering new resources. I'm kinda curious as to how much people price their ships at too. Mining my own resources I'm figuring 3-4cpu.

Well i found one guy near kaadara selling mp ships for 450k which seemed dirt cheap to me, very good hp on the chassis too.
People got bored of JTL is the problem and finding the best/right parts as you progress is the main issue (Just gone from reb master to imp) so seriously the best bet would be spend time looking at packaging parts for ships for each tier and faction.
If someone had sold decent packaged TIE's it would have made my life alot easier.

well my MP ships will be around 300k no matter what resources are used, that just over 2.5cpu

When I started out as master shipwright on Chimaera I tried selling packaged sets of components, but only sold about 3 packs so I dropped the idea.

that's my pricing personally for chassis. I use dirt-cheap resources (stuff I can find for 1cpu) for my chassis and can still hit 'regular' mass on them (e.g., 100k on X-Wing) - so, I only charge 3cpu for them, which is 450k for master level ships (150k resources) - of course, when I make the ships for myself, I splurge on my good stuff, but that's another matter heh. so besides a little tiny bit of effort on my part, i'd make 300k per master level ship sold, which, to me, is a good amount for one sale. i've also only sold 2 master level chassis so far in the last month, and only make them on demand instead of stocking them.
EDIT: One of these things does not belong here (a Chimeara thread).... (It's me! I just had to add my $0.04, because I'm worth more than $0.02

Welcome,
I'm long time SW (i'm no active SW but still got it). Your plan is simple -crappy resources - low prices.
This strategy is good only for multiperson ships. BTW we need new ships which can be customized
(why not two shields on board?).
This game needs only the best items. I like my almost 66k A-wing.
When you compare it to standard 64k mass A-Wing you ill see what is going on (when i was active SW
i was charging 1.5-2.0 mill for it).
IMO SW ATM is no profit.
Regards

for me its not about profit, i can get that from selling loot.
Its more getting the new players and old into space.

i've been a master for about 2mouths now, and was selling all my ships at 3CPU, and selling about 2 a week. but now the Galaxy WIde Vendor has come in and the pricing has gone silly. i've had to cut my pricing to 2CPU and i'm likely if i sell one per week. and while i'm here do any of you SW from Chimaera have Firespray disks to trade i have two extras of Disk 5 and i'm after disks 2,4,and 7. if you not for Trade please make me an offer on my disks 5.
