I am doing well, I do find a few more recently of "I want an AT-ST" ... or random rank purchases.

Maybe converting an entire guild to Imperial got my name back in circulation ?

I feel like sucha n00b, but im going to ask anyway.

How the crap do you transfer faction. I have been smuggler for over a year and until now havn't really seen the need for faction selling...how however...

Yea, so my n00bn3ss is exposed. Anyone care to answer?

It would be almost impossible to ever turn a profit that way because you lose your rank when you resign from a faction.
So, given your scenario...
You would join the Rebellion, buy you way up to a rank sufficient to hold at least 45000 FP (Master Smuggler cost for a Detachment HQ).
THEN, you have to buy the 45k FP to buy the base.
Sell that base, then say an order for an Imperial HQ comes in...
So, you resign from the Rebellion, buy your way up to a rank sufficient to hold at least 32000 FP (Master Smuggler cost for an Imp Det HQ).
THEN, buy the 32k FP for the base.
In order to turn a profit in either case, you'd probably have to sell the bases for at LEAST 200c/FP.
A Master Smuggler who stays a Colonel in a faction will undercut that any day (I currently sell perks at a 50% markup, which translates to roughly 140c/FP).
I'm not saying your scheme wouldn't work. But, it would be hard to maintain in the long run, and your profits would be severely hindered.

Thanks.
