I may try flaming them and asking "Can u make me uber gun pls" in future, thanks for the tip.
You need to say it like this...
"Can you make me an UB3R McNuBeR with 30 SAC, super l!ghtn!ng fast with 1000+ dmg? And... and.. use your best stuff, not the stuff you use on the weapons on your vendor!!!!one1!1!eleven!!!! Oh, and it has to be fast... I'll give you lots of money. How's about 1000 credits?!?"

Savori the Master Weaponsmith, Master Doc of Sunrunner
I try to keep every level weapon in stock if possible and yes that sometimes means restocking many things month after month.
Still, my strategy is if the noob comes in and finds the weapon he needs and notes that the next one he needs is there he'll be back. He/She also tells their friends that ol' Skor usually has everything you need, great quality and good prices. Seems to have worked because I routinely have to make more of the low CL weapons.
Frankly this is a market oppertunaty for the WS that cannot currently make uber weapons. Problemis every newbie WS wants to make Uber weapons (well its to be expected) and will spend their hard earn money on buying Krayt tissue and making a piece of poo in the process.
So, all you new guys, theres a trade out there for the intermediate weapons.
I would recomend making packs for people - ie Carbine grinding pack - that has all the level of carbines.
As its been posted before, these are throw away weapons so people dont want to spend a lot of money. Plus, if they are for new players, the new players dont have any money or not much money.
I sometimes get approached to make a weapon for a newbie. I ask them what profession they are and want to be and what their current skill is. I then make them a few weapons that will help them grind. I dont charge for this as they really dont have any money. If Ive got the time for making something 10-50k, i might as well give the thing away and let them buy a swoop with the money instead.
The SWG economy really isnt right in this sense and I dont really know what can be done about it.
