I agree that the Master Tailor made items - flight suits and the grand healers robe should be higher in price. If people want the cheapest then they won't come to my shop. It's that simple. I have a wonderful customer base and they won't shop with any other tailor. Some people understand it takes alot of resrouces to make one of the MT items.


Some people who come for custom work, are surprised when I tell them the price of their outfit and usually they tip me quite well. I suspect they think its gonna be higher.


Only ONCE has anyone told me my prices were to high: I remember spending 2 hours one night helping a customer (a new one) he bought 2 grand healers robes, and a flightsuit. Then he comes back the next day, telling me other tailors would have sold those items for 5k. I was pissed because its easy for a tailor to say that... when the outfits are DONE and sold! I spent MY time with him. If money was his only issue he should have gone to someone else.

Kylania, true. Like i said:


"Im not yet master, i may round up my master prices somewhat when i get there based on demand and market rate for my server (valcyn) "


I had factored my costs so far on straight resources with the arbitary tier modifier i added. Which at the time i made 4k for master. Not factoring in anything extra for a high amount of factory components or anything.


It'll still be a while before i make master and as such my prices for master items are something still verily open for changes, but i'll varythem based on market rates etc on Valcyn and what not, there's already a fair amount of masters around and obviously i need to take theirprices into account as well and how much i can keep up with demand when i get there...
