hey everyone, im a new master WS and have already gotten a million /tells from people wanting gernades. I tried to do some price checking to see how much i should sell them but none of the venders i visited had them in stock. how much do you sell your gernades for or would be willing to sell them for?
thanks for your help

After doing my research I have found that depending on server you can get 20K to 140K per crate. It all depends on your server 
Average I see is 50K per crate of 25.

I upped the price on my to cover the price increase in materials.
2.8 speed
206/855 damage
I charge 50k for a crate of 25 of these. Yesterday I sold 20 crates to the same individual. I put another 30 up this morning and fully expect them to be gone within minutes of server restart.

I hope this helps. I am charging 100k per crate for Imp dets down tp 40k for the c12s. I am looking at putting up my prices as demand has got crazy, I am running 4 factories full time and I cant seal with all the requests! AT long last, its our time in the spotlight, ha ha ha. I have one client who thinks that I should be charging double what I do!!!
Good luck and happy crafting

yep its the latest way to grind XP for the FS stuff. Grenade XP is done as Combat XP which converts 3:1 not 30:1 like unarmed or swords or something.

I go by my server's economy and I tack a bit more on to account for the demand as well as the extra time it takes to make those suckers.

I started off charging 25k per crate for C12s. After going through 400 crates faster than I could make them, I upped the price to 35k, and they're still selling pretty briskly. I may go up to 40k at some point, but I dunno how much higher than that I'll go. Will have to see. They're certainly in demand right now.

Okay those of you that are selling for 35k+ thats highway robbery.....
At least for me,
I bought enough resources at 2/unit to make 8k grenades. I will go back tomorrow and buy some more, but I sepnt a totall of about 600-800k. 8k grenades at 1k wach is 8 million....
The cpu for that is insane, please weaponsmiths try to remember we are here to make some money but not to rip people off. If your vendor goes dry then just keep making more as fast as you can, I dont see any reason to sell them for 35k+ a crate. As weaponsmiths we make plenty of money, being greedy is what screws up the economy of the servers. I know the supply and demand rule...but there is a point to stop raising prices, at least thats my opinion.

40k for a crate of C12 is 30cpu which is the base I used for all my weapon pricing when I first started.
I used 30cpu as the lowest I would accept because I was selling powerups at the time as fast as I could make them at 30cpu, investing more skill points and collecting more resources should yield a better return.
Overtime most of my weapon prices have been stable with some increases (melee) to match market, while at the same time all commandolimited chargeproductshad to be sold atdiscount (10-15CPU).
Now that these have a practical use I see no reason why charging 40k would be considered highway robbery, its not like you are taking advantage of noobies, these are generally hardcore players that know what they are doing, and the same players that are charging you as much as they can get for Krayt tissueandGeo cubes.
Another component of your price should be whether or not you are 12pt, (why did you get your 12pt if you didn't expect it to make any money for you?)and your location/convenience for your buyer.
Anyway I'm at 35K a crate for C21, 50k per crate of C22 and 100k per crate of Thermals.

Thanks for adding to the discussion.
Do you have anything to back up your oppinion?
I think I clearly demonstrated that 40k is a fair price and 50k is not out of the ballpark in any stretch of the imagination.
20k would clearly be a waste of the weaponsmith's time.
