hi all , as ive just got M tailor i was gonna set up shop selling clothes and tailor components, but what i want to know is what sort of price do i sell the components at? i want to run an efficient, low cost business which helps me and the coustomer but my man problem is pricing. usually i dont sell anything, i just ask the coustomer to tip what they think is a fair price or simply give the item to them, but now as credits are running low im forced to charge peeps for the stuff i make, so if anyone can gimme a price list, or they know of a link to a site that can help me it would be appreciated. thanks for reading,


yours

everyones prices are different, depending on the tailor and server economy.

first thing i would do is look at material costs.


Bellow is the material costs assuming 3cpu


Synth Cloth - 1500 cr per crate

Trim - 1875 cr per crate

RFP - 1500 cr per crate (cant remember this one and cant be bothered checking, but you get the general idea)


Then decide how much your time is worth and how much profit you want.

Ive never sold sub components, but you need to remember not to go with too much profit on these as they are just a sub component and not a finished item. 5k a crate is a price i would probably go with, but id really have no idea if that was too cheap/too expensive as i have little experiance in selling these.

SynCloth 2500


RFP 3000


Shoe soles 2500


jewerly settings 2500


cargo pockets 2500


metal fasteners 2500


Fiberplast panels 2500


Trim 3000/crate (or special order 40 crates(full run)at 100k)



Trim is my biggest seller, followed by synth cloth, then fiberplast panels.



that's what I sell them for on bria.

In Radiant,


Syn cloths 2500 credits (crate of 25)

Fiber Panels 5000 credits (crate of 50)

But the is a lot of variety I've seen the crates os 25 syn cloth from 1000 credits to 15000

Usually I just do it for 5 c/p/u because it's easy. Of course, I only do crates by special request, if they're available and if I have the time.
