I was wondering what i should charge for Thermal Dets? They seem to be hard to find and the Jedi Grinders want them. Any thoughts would be helpful.

Ass loads. Anything than larger than a c22 is so damn confounding to make, even with a factory, that I dont waste my time. I make c22s price them at 10k per crate (hey the grinders pay it) and go on about my way. As it is I run five factories and the tunr around time on 500 c22s is still 2 days if I want the serials. 168 seconds per build is alot. But price them what you think you can get. It depends on server. Use the TRADE FORUMS.

Depends on your server's economy. On Corbantis I charge 95K per crate for Thermals, and they usually sell out within a few days.

Dude I hear ya the run times for these are about 200-300 for the components and then 200-300 for the dets themselfs......they take forever!!!

it seems like on chilastra that imp det's are in more demand than thermals, guess they like just getting level 3 in field tactics. but i tried charging 100k for thermals and didn't sell too good, then chopped it down to 50k but my imps go for anywhere from 75k to 80k and protons easily 100k

Based on market research (looking round a few WS vendors) I would typically charge about 80k for thermals on Ahazi, but I haven't made any yet as there's been no Thoranium steel spawn yet on Ahaziin 2005!


Personally I cant keep protons in stock at the moment for all the FS grinders (these dont use thoranium steel but require4 components).... the downside is that the FS grinders can only use them at Master Commando rather than 4xxx

I go about 22 cpu on nades, because of the shear amount of factory time and resources they take. That's the reasoning behind my 29K for C12s, 35K for C22's, and 90K for Thermals (which I never make big batches of because of resources). If I were to ever make Imp dets, which I never have, it would have to be a special orderdue to the6.2Kunits of resources per case.


I'll probly be lowering my prices soon, as I'm really starting to build up a good supply of nade resources.
