Wow, 10k per slice, 100k per suit of comp? Very Interesting. I've been away from the game for some time, and was cruising around the forums looking for what has changed in the Smuggler community. Apparently prices have gone up. I think this is a good deal actually, and more power to the OP. If someone doesn't like your prices, they can go somewhere else, end of story.

yes it must be that their use ti lower prices,,hehe 5 k's isnt the lowest ive seen thou,ive seen people slice for 2k's and i think that is just a waste of time.

we must take pride in our job.

the other day this client complained because he got a 35% speed slice on one of those carbines(forgot the model),he wanted a dmg slice but hey come on,i improved the weapon speen IN 35% thats alot,he refused to pay so i left the item in my back pack telling him that each day would increment the price in 20k's for my troubles and stress he gave me with him and all his friends sending angry tells.

a week later he finally came and payed.

now his really smooth with,so i think we need to stand up for ourselves,

thats my opinion and what im doing right now,everyone is free to do as they want.

You're a better amn then me. I said 5k for a slice if its over 30% its 10k for that item. I once had a suit sliced for encrum for all over 30% it came to 90K, He said no. It sold pretty fast on my vendor for 90k

That's rediculous, you shouldn't sell it! Just wait till he has the money. That would be considered stealing....

If he didnt have the money that would be a different story. If you're going to try to state what I am going to charge you after I told you up front what I charge I'm not going to deal with that c r a p. I'm not your daddy here to teach you how the world works. You people must be the ones who think if they argue in the line in walmart the price will drop after a while. Not so. I say up front under 30% slice is 50k if it goes over 30% 10k per item. If you think after I slice it you are going to tell me it's 100cc per % then Im going to a a great sale on ur stuff in my mall. lol Call it stealing I'm a smuggler I think I'll live lol.

Woah. Now I see why they won't go to you.

I don't see anything wrong with his rates. I charge 10k per slice as well and I get a good amount of business.

Thing is, most people are just used to seeing lower prices such as 5k per or 100 cr/%, which is why they cringe whne they see higher prices.

I run into this one in real life, everyday. my job deals directly with rising prices for a specific product on which our society has come overly relient on to begin with. i hear hours worth of bichin and complainin about it, but can't do jack squat to help them. they got used to lower prices, and now, its going up again. you just gotta learn tolet the sh*t run off your back like water on a duck.

yep trustfuzion i think your philosofy is the right one.

I have taken my master smuggler tag off and now im just wearing my Rogue tag,seems i get better clients but still in a 2 hour period today i got also some mind numbing cretins who started to yell in startport /sigh

i mean c'mon im trying to enjoy my profesion,i role play once in a while and im really a good person.

If i see a noob i always try to help,even thou sometimes i do get tired of answering all their questions hehe arrest me!!! im human hehe

and i think that my job,time,skills and tools are w orth 10k's whats the big problem.

while im at it i wanna say thankx to caylin for all the suport and help we've had so far,i know its tough being where he is;

i understand smuggler as it is,is a broken profesion but lets really enjoy the game and by doing it we also will help others,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

hum i dnt think so we are smugglers so we should be a little evil hehe just my 2 cents hehehe

I say we all go on strike for two weeks! People will realise what we do for them and by the time we come back they'll be ecstatic to pay 100k for a set of armor or 400 cr/percent.

well im not to sure about the strike......hum could work or cause general havoc hehe which i find interesting.J/K

well the thing is that is why i like smuggler so much,we make our own rules.i think that the complaining about "thta we are a broken prof" sohuld be toned a little down by us,dnt get me wrong i defenitely think we need MAJOR REVAMP

but we should just enjoy our profesion.

-lets make our own prices

-try to role play a bit,as smugglers we are the best prof to do that

-basically try to have fun,if we get a revamp cool,if not we will keep on having fun in game.

i know that veteran smugglers can start flaming me and maybe they will be right,i havent been smuggler more then maybe 2 or 3 months but our profesion is what we make of it,and we are a great profesion because the people that have it are the coolest in the game.

dnt know if anything that i just wrote makes sense but it came from the heart.

cheers from sunny spain to all smugglers galaxy wide

The way I see it I am just gonna charge whatever the going rate for Doctor Buffs are nowadays, which would make my rate 15k. If they can pay that for 3 hours of killing, then they can definitaly pay that for the PERMANENT upgrade I give there weapon. If they don't like it, they can go elsewhere. But I see no point in paying that much for a buff but not a better weapon.

Yeah, I'm a new master smuggler but I've had bits and pieces of this profession for a very long time. To be specific I've had 0/4/4/0 for what seemed like forever. Anyway, I really love this profession and more content would be great, but I don't think there's anything really "broken" with our profession other than spice experimentation

. Slicing seems to work great and I love last ditch and Feign Death (not for PvP though because I don't think that's "right"). Maybe I don't know anything though, I'm new afterall

15k + for 1-2 items, any more i consider it a "bulk" order and charge 20-30k per slice just because no auto pull sucks the wang and i can make more money loot whoreing elders and having more fun doing that than being somebodies slice monkey for 30+ minutes.
