Whatever someone's willing to pay. THAT is what you sell it for.


10k a crate is usually the most popular option though.

Great idea except for one thing. There are a bunch of normal and respec smugglers who would undercut the hell out of you just to sell their own product. Spice is fun to sell on areas that have little population. Selling Pixie/Muon in Theed isn't as profitable as Lok or Dathomir. Sell it for 15k a crate at those planets and you'll sell more because A) yours will most likely be the only available spice on the bazaar and B) On Naboo, Corellia, and Tatooine it's the opposite of A.

Easy pricing! Pull up a bazaar terminal and go to vendor search. Then go to misc->crates->neutron pixie. Sort by price, see the high, see the low. Pick something in the middle and boom!

Instant pricing

lol, 15k? I sell mine for 3k. I've seen people sell for 2.5k, and i've seen people sell for 10k, personally, I like to give my buyers a good deal. I figure, if i sell my product to you at a price nobody else has, you'll always come back for more.

I might up the price, but i'm not sure.

It costs me anywhere from 1200 to 1500 credits to make a crate of neutron pixie (I have my own harvestors). I sell mine for 2500 which is still decent profit for me. I know this is a lot lower than most people but I also am using my merchant xp for force sensitive luck.

Wow, ive been selling mine at crate 25k but open to negotiation so after haggling 20k usual price they go for, if i put them on bazaar its 1kfor each individual pixieand they always go. 3k a crate? my god that will make smugglers the poorest proffesion in galaxy. We need to stick together and raise the price up not undercut each and reduce prices.

I wish I could sell for 25k/crate.


Some jackass on Corbantis sells for 5k. I have a hard time selling mine because mine go for 7.5k to 10k (depending on what planet i put them on the terms.

I dont understand how people can sell them for less than 10k, they are worth so much more

I sell mine for 10k a crate. However, with the fix to stacking spices, I feel they are not worth this price any longer. My sales have dropped a lot.

I sell mine for 5k each. Now I tried selling them at 10k, they didn't shift, I lowered them to 7.5k they started to move at a rate of about 2-3 every other day. I've put them down to 5k and I sell on average 2-3 a day.


The reason for this? Valcyn is small, it has a large amount of Spice to population level. I've seen crates and crates of the stuff on the baazar and I've seens crates and crates on vendors at 500cr. Now 45 x 0.2cpu x 25 = 225cr + a lttile bit of factory cost to make a crate of the stuff. I've had smugglers on my server say "No I won't put up the price of spice, I'll continue selling at 4000cr" So I can have it on my Vendor at 10k and it won't sell or I can have it on a 5k and it will sell at a reasonable speed.


If you find you are selling spice quicker than you are producing it then you are sellling to low. If you are not selling spice at a slow rate your price is to high. Simple.

How much do you sell Muon and PIxie for?


As much as someone will pay for it.


People thought I was *insane* last year when I charged 10k per slice. But you know what? People paid it. Gladly. Not only did I provide slicing, but I had good customer service, I role played a bit, and I made the whole process "fun". People pay for that.


Spice is going to be the same thing. Look for where people want it most, travel there yourself, and sell it in-person. I bet you'll be able to jack the price up for the convenience.
