1k each. Seriously, people try to get too much money off of these now. I tend to give any ones I loot away to up and coming smugglers. One thing I hope they fix in the revamp is switching around terminals and containers so people's greed doesn't stop those who want to be smugglers from actually doing so. Maybe then, the containers will go back down to the 500-1k credits each they were back in the day. I've seen vendors on Gorath with containers upwards of 30k, which is completely riddiculus. So my answer stands, sell them for 1k to up and coming smugglers.

Depends on the buyers you find. if there goin for smuggler and they got money you can get a good amount ( i paid 10K each for mine to work sliceing) But if there not very well set financialy dont expect to get much above bizzare rates (6k)
hope that helps

best you should hope for is 5k though when my only choice was to pay 5-6k
i just grinded on terminals. took a lot longer..but i didnt have to spend a mill to do it

Equip a weapon you are not certified to use and pull low level Swooper/Meatlump missions. Regardless of their difficulty, NPCs seem to drop locked containers at the same rate so by going super easy you can plow through them faster, increasing your yield of containers for the time involved.
screw buying containers off the bazaar. any wise up and coming slicer will use clamps, and you need 60 perfect slices until you can begin on crates of CDEF weapons. so given the cost of laser knives, 3 crates of clamps, and 60 containers off the bazaar that comes up to about 400,000 credits on Ahazi.
Way too much for a new player, and let's be honest it's the fault of the damn hologrinders that people can sell for that high. I hate seeing new smugglers being fleeced by the rest of the community; to get to slice terminals you would still need to drop 120k on the bazaar unless you go out and find them on your own.

I'm pretty sure the price of containers bieng so high is a direct correlation to our prices for slicing going up. PPL want to gouge us to level our proffession but dont' want to pay more themselves.

If I had to do Novice over again I'd right down the name of anyone who offered to sell me a container for more than 3k... and then when Ireached master.. his slices would cost 20k... just to return the favor.
