Thread: Sold out again last night.. oh the insanity!
Well you can look at it this way... You made 100k in an hours work from the guy who bought your outfits. Assuming he's a combat guy bashing bols on the head (isn't everybody?) he's also probably making around 100k an hour doing that (10k/mission, 10 missions/hour, sounds about right). So at least your prices are somewhat rational from that standpoint.
Being sold out isn't always a bad thing. In fact it can make your products seem even more desirable. The alternative is to price them such that some people will turn their noses up at them due to the price, which may not be desirable.
Oh, and it's "too many bugs" not "to many" ![]()

well so far it takes me about 1 hour to make 4 to 6 jedi outfits, and then 3 pilot outfits, which sell out empty each night. I was charging 22k for the jedi outfits, and now I bumped it to 32k and still sold out.

I'm not sure at all how much that means I am making. The jedi outfit takes some easy to make things, cloak, large pocket pants, wrinkled pants, longsleeve shirt, small pocket belt (no cargo pockets required).
the pilots outfit with the comfortable slacks and pilots jacket i think is hard to make.
I'm not sure at all what to charge, i mainly just pick numbers out of my head, and raise/lower as i think will work.
an hour?!?! are you only useing one tool?!?!
I crank out 10 outfits {so over 60 items}in under 30mins when I craft sets.
line up tools start one on shirts, go down the line all shirts,
go back to first tool which has long by then finished start pants,
continue all then bag when done

Are all ofyou who are making these kits selling with 4 sockets each item? Just curious.
I do not cater to 4sox
so all my styled outfits are that outfits, for style
Inever did factory runs when a 4sox appeared either
I am in the profession for clothing, not SEAs
I'm almost frightened to log in now. I just started up an outfit vendor, stocked it, put it on the map, and went out of town. Wonder how much I've sold.
And if you're selling them for 30k, maybe I should raise my prices. I priced everything at 10k. ![]()
