great thx
so as colonel (ighest possible rank) ut cost 118 to send 100
so i send 1000 and pay 1118 factionpoints
i can still buy 1250 for 100k so now transferring 1000 cost me bit less than 100k
1000 points going for 100k is 100 CPU!!!
(my personal cost, even bit less than that)
so a fair price would be 125 cpu i guess, i would do 25k profit with selling 1000 faction
but im not fair so i would do at least 150cpu, do at least 50k profit ^^
do you think it should be like 180cpu or do you think everything above 125 is not nice?

thx dosi
is its 1:118 at colonel (higehst rank) that would be a cpu of 118 right????????
so with cpu 118 i dont make any profit and dont lose money
if this is true sellinf faction is not a way to earn money
because if i sell at 125 cpu (and 90% of customers think thats too much and leave again) i can do 125000 credits for 1000 points, but i have to pay for myself 118000 credits for 1000 points so i do 7000 credits profit each 1000 points
thats nothing
thats less than nothin? 7k profit each 1k faction i sell, thats peanuts??
if somebody wants to buy 10k faction, in best case i can do 70k credits with that?
i cant believe that, i think i still do something wrong?

Meeeeep, wrong.
The 1:118 should actually be 1:1.18 and that is the delegation ratio
meaning
If you delegate 100 FP you loose 118 FP (18 FP as transfer fee, so to say) as Colonel
Making profit with faction deals begins with ~79 cpu to ~95 cpu, depends if you use an entertainer buff and if your faction won or lost the Cries of Alderaan Story.
basicly you are with 125/FP on a save side with a nice profit, it is my current price and since my faction deals are pretty rare anyway and I usally have banked some FP from a duty mission in space it is pure profit for me.
Yeah, that's a big profit. If someone is nice or hard-up, you could charge them left. If you're going to sell faction, calculate your cost based on your rank and whether or not you're inspiration buffed and go off of that. And if you're going to sell faction, get to Colonel as soon as possible.
