I charge 10k per slice, but discount full sets of armor just a little (like 75k for full set of composite instead of 90k). I have a standing policy though that the first time someone questions my prices they go up to 20k per slice. I don't want to haggle, so if they don't like my prices they can take their business somewhere else.

Oh yeah, and I'm /anon and I keep my tag down so the only businessI get are past customers or referals... And even then, I'll only slice if I'm not busy with something else.

"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

usually i say "whatever you think is apropriate". most often then theyll give me some good tips. but sometimes for some reason ill just say 5k a slice. either way, i make a profit. when i hit master, ill charge more, but i try to charge on the lesser side in hopes ofgetting more customers.

23k a slice

Until recently, I charged 10k if the customer got the type of slice he wanted (i.e. damage/speed etc.), no charge if not. Since the nerf to feign death, my price went up to 10k flat fee, regardless of result.

That's the ancient pricing before the economy went to... well, you know that place that people go when they're in handbaskets. If you're charging 100 credits per percent now, you're being exploited by your customers, in my opinion. I was charging 2000 credits a few months ago, then 3000, now I charge 5000, but the price doubles each time thecustomer ticks me off. So far I haven't had very many problems, one tried to send me a fake bank tip... I ended up keeping his weapon.

I've only had one person balk at the price and he went on the deny service for being a jerk anyway.
