I was wondering how other peoples sales on spices are. i have a vendor up and maybe sell one spice per month and sell a few more on the bazzar. Is anyoneelse doing better and what are they doing to sale more.

Ever since the Chef revamp hit very early last year and the advention of Doctor buffs, Spices simply do not sell at all. I mean, you might be able to churn a couple out a month like you're saying but it's just not worth it unless you enjoy being a drug dealer. Personally, I think of myself as a Smuggler...but then again, I have no means of doing that...so....yeah..

Most of the time, the credits you put towards power and maintainance on a food factory and the resources just to sell Spices isn't even worth it. I mean, these sell on the bazaar for 100cr per use (2.5k/crate) and it probably costs you 1 or 2 thousand credits just to run your factory.

Sadly, you can make much more than that Slicing for the general public at the Smuggler Forum Recommended price of 7-12k per item sliced. Or just running ungrouped, crap solo missions on Dant if you have some Pistoleer or another elite combat class.

So in summary, no, the vast, vast, VAST majority of Smugglers don't even bother with Spices at all. It simply isn't worth the time it takes to net 1k profit on a single crate.

Spices are supposed to be overhauled in the Combat Upgrade and then phased out as craftable items in the Smuggler Revamp. In the Revamp, they're only received through Smuggler missions with NPCs (no smuggling for other players).

Hope that clears a lot up for you. Probably wasn't the answer you were looking for...but...well...ain't what I'm looking for either.

I always manage to sell supplies far faster than Spices, but I still manage to do a brisk business. I always sold more on the bazaar than I did on my own vendors, but that might be because I never had advertising lol.

My PA deiced for RP purposes to begin selling spices on bazaars. Several of us get the spice from the smugglers and sell them on various planets. From me I sell an average of 3-4 full crates of Pixie a week, each of the 25 crates split into 6 dose crates and also into singles. 1000cr a dose, 6000cr a crate. According to those in charge of selling the Muon, it sells better.

With constant monitoring of the stock levels, occational radical price dropping to maintain monopolies, and the general idea that spice doesn't sell, we make a killing.

I always have muon and pixie on me for emergencies. Both of these spices have saved my derriere many times.

And since the GCW changes, I have had to pop a pixie a couple of times when unbuffed and ambushed in town by Imperials.

I've sold one crate of Pixie. One. Ever.

Kinda sad that I bought that food factory and set up a 1000 unit run when I hit master.

I still sell muon gold and the odd crate of pixie on the baazar but it's nowhere near being a nice money earner (thanks to the chef revamp). I'm lucky to sell a crate in one day.
