I charge 2k per slice for weapons and armor. Free if its below 20%...
Why am I so cheap?
Because I don't believe in the over-pricing these days from the inflation of credits. Nor do I believe that others should suffer because we got our revamp pushed back.. again.
(For the curious, I make all of my tools and mine up all of the resources required to make them)






Behold! The slice monkey has arrived!

But seriously, why are you a smuggler? Did the holo tell you to do it?

Mine is complicated:


Weapons--

5k if it comes up speed, 10k if it comes up damage, free if it's under 20 percent on either.


Armor--

5k if it comes up effectiveness, 2500 if it comes up encumberance, free if it's under 20 percent on either. No bulk discounts because I don't really want to slice anyway.... It's better money to go pull a mission.


I don't do these for the money, I do them for the flavor.


Just a funny little slicing story:

I was negotiating with someone in Theed, and as usual, I tell them I'm expensive and there are other smugglers around. I'm on a lot so if they still can't find someone, they can probably always come back to me.

A passerby (artisan) notices that I said 10k for a slice (see above prices), and says, "Tsk, tsk, Mr. Smuggler, the standard rate is 200 cr per %."

I reply, "I don't care about your standards. I'm a smuggler, not a merchant."


Other bystanders and customer crack up--it's nice to have a profession that's so easy to roleplay. There are only three in this game--smuggler, bounty hunter, and Jedi.
