Wow, either I'm looking in all the wrong places or tissues are grossly overpriced on gorath. I've seen them go as high as 60k each for the creature taming tissues, and about the lowest was 10k a peice. I have had absolutely no luck finding a reliable supplier either (fortunately however my guy is grinding BE so I'll have one soon ) As a result of the lack of availability and the high prices I finally just started telling people "sorry I am not doing stat clothes" at least not until he gets high enough to supply me. I am very reluctant to even do combines for people that supply their own tissues now after a recent crit fail cost me 60k and an unhappy customer :*(

If creature taming tissues are 60K on gorath, then prices are low! I usually end up spending around 100K for those. Of course, all that is about to change.

My prices are extremely high for CH tissues, but then I paid 9 million credits for a single stack of 900 milk. That means that a +14 CH taming crystal cost me 250k worth of resources. To make back as fast as I could, I charged 500k for each tissue in the clothing. 1.5 million for a +25 taming sunguard or 500k for a +14 Muscle shirt


High prices, but that will drop when milk is abundant. I pay my BE a minimum of 3k per tissue, so 75k per crate unless it uses eggs or mollusks or milk. Then we discuss prices. I only buy the high end pieces, like +17 defense cloth, because there is no stacking. For medical and entertaining, I like a lot of +14 tissues, and some +17 or +18 tissues for single cloth items (like muscle shirts)


25k per tissue used, and 20k per tissue in multiple cloth slots. So a +14 medicalsunguard is 25k while a +25 is 60k I have yet to see the best doctors NOT wear a full suit of medical clothing now. It seems to have become the standard, and everyone admits that average for buffs and heals is higher, though maximum effect is unchanged

I've managed to keep a bit of a damper on demand by not heavily advertising the availability of bio-clothing. I basically do all my bio business via face-to-face custom orders if/when people ask about it, or for friends.

The way I see it, most people here are charging way too low. Yes there are alot of tailors around, but as someone said, findind BEs is the hard part. There arent enough BEs to go around.


Im a master tailor, and my alt is a master BE (2nd account). Its a good symbiosis I made a grand ball gown tonight with +25 +25 to dancer/musician wound healing, and put it on my vendor for 100k (requires 5 crated cloths). My +25 +25 doctor dresses sell for 40k (easy to make - no rare ingredients). They sell out faster than I can keep them in stock.


I charge 35k for a +4 +15 Melee/stun camos, 30k for same stat undershirt. Mask scent go for a little higher, but not much, since I got unlucky with the stats (+12 +12).


In general, Ive got the impression that money isnt hard to come by on my server (bria), and everybody can afford more costly attire. I assume when reading the above posts, that people selling clothing with stats for only 10k, that the mods are crap. Most of the non-tissued stuff on my vendor sell for that.


Yes Im pricey, but Im fair and I makeexquisite clothes

hi!


thats my formula:


1k*bonus points + 5k per additional tissue + item-costs w/o enhancement.


for example: a +25 wound/ injury treatmentlarge headwrap costs:


1k*25 + 5k + 1.299,-- = 31.299,--


as im a lazy one, i put them into vendor for 30k.


greetz, tricia






My formula as well.

The typical price for tissues on my server is 3500 per when you find a BE (that's the hard part). Lots of tailors seem to have agreements and sell as low as 7k per clothes. I was selling at 10k and was selling much too fast considering the low supply of tissues, so increased my prices to 12k for shirts and bandoliers, 15k for pants and 25k for the 25 stuff. And it's finally selling out at a reasonable pace.

This is one of those situations where servers, and even planets on the same server can very greatly. I try to keep a level price on the bonus and also make sure I take into affect the price of the tissue. Most of my one tissue enhanced clothing (plus 15 to 17) goes pretty quick at 20 - 22k. My plus 25 clothings go for between 50 - 60k depending on the supply of tissues, and how many tissues the outfit actually used. CH enhanced goes for a wide range of prices depending on the cost of the tissue.

I charge 12k per tissue now, and just add up if the item uses more than one. Why would I bother making doctor dresses and sell them at 30k when I can make 50k just selling shirts? It would make no sense to me, considering how hard it is to get hold on tissues.

I'm on Bria and theres a lot of BE tailors around, but I keep my prices at 1k/%bonus +1k per wasted tissue. So, +25 medical or dancing clothing are between 25-29k depending on how many tissues are wasted, +15 to maskscent camos 15k. I've seen a lot cheaper and a lot more expensive tailors on bria, but it seems to be a nice average, and I sell about 30-50 BE'd items per day.

Wow, I charge a lot less than that - for me, it's 5000 per tissue used (I generally buy them at 3000 per.)






I'm beginning to charge in that range for some of the tissues. My ID/BE Eimi can usually make tissues in the +15 range, but the materials are either hard to get or very expensive. Until really good grains, flowers and fungi spawn on Lowca again, I can't do any better. For the +16 and +17 tissues for single pieces of clothing which have single tissue slots I have to charge more. I often pay 4000 credits and more for those ones. Its just not worth my time to scour the galaxy looking for them (espcially when my normal suppliers are out of them) just to make a tiny bit of profit.
