I just became a new smuggler today, and I was reading through the stickied threads and such, but I'm still not clear ona few things: selling faction points, and making spice.
Currently, 'm at the rank of Colonel, so I"m maxed out there. How much does it cost a smuggler for faction? In reading the posts, people had mentioned watching their bank account to make sure they had the amount they calculated and didn't go below that, but how do you calculate that? And if you're selling faction, how do you do it, in terms of getting paid and delegation (with a max amount of 500)? Do you have the person with you who needs the FP and delegate it in chunks? I've got some guild mates who are interested in this, but I don't know how to answer their questions about it.
Now for spices. Does the quality of the resource matter when making spice? And if so, what qualities are we looking for to make the best spice?
Oh, and btw, what is a good price to charge for weapon/armor slices?
Can someone help me out on this? I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,

FP, there's a great stickied link to the best FP buying/selling doc I've seen but I can be breif and summarise. It costs 10,000cr for the largest chunk of FP we can buy (125 iirc, it's been awhile). You delegate at 1.18:1 (costs you 118 to delegate 100). You'll need the person buying from you there to delegate and of course you'll need payment in advance.
Spice, as the post above this said, any old crap you can get cheap. Same goes for slicing tools. We're lucky because we can use any garbage that we can pick up at 1cpu.
Pricing is really up to you. When I was slicing my way up to master I started at 100cr/% and increased to 200cr/% at Slicing 4 and 300cr/% at Master. My last price was a fixed 10k per slice. Charge what people will pay, but near the top of what they will pay
Good luck.
