I think we did this last week :-)
5k per slice, free if under 20% (weapons)
Full suits of armor (9 pieces) go for 35k (discounts given for -20% slices).
and i slice for free for my guildies (for personal orders of course...not bulk).
200creds per %
but thats cause i couldnt be bothered lol
i think 100/% is a good price though
Well, when i needed the xp I would do it for cost (about 1k each: 500 cr clamp and 500 cr upgrade kit). Hey, I got the xp and they got a halfway decent slice.
Now that I'm a master smuggler I wont touch a slice job for less than 2500 crs per piece. Heck, I have to get all the tools that I can't make etc and still make a good profit. However, I find that most experienced players will pay me more of their own free will for a good slice (with % in the 30's). I Sliced a full suit of comp armor (9 pcs)and was given 50k for my efforts. That's more like it.
Look at the price of weapons... 20k for a decent pistol. If I can make that pistol 25% better on average, I think It's worth 25% of the weapon's value... 5k.
That's my 2 creds.
I'm a slicer, not a master, but I do it for 2-3k for weapons and 4-5k for armor depending on if I've got lots of time and/or resources.
When I was grinding up the tree, I did 'em for free. I knew I'd get a crappy slice and I needed the xp.
Only just made Slicing 4 and I've been going with the accepted standard 100cr per % free under 15%. At master that goes to 150cr per free under 20%.
Several of us charge the flat rate per slice and yours seem in line with the other masters with yours.
There are tooooo many dumper on Gorath, eg. moun gold/neutron pixie for 350cr in the bazar...
