this is my first time making them and ive never used.. I got some really sweet gas to try soo i might get to 2k max This is my first thing as a master WS i have made. I plan on only doing commando stuff,, Full line of all there disposibles. I dont think im going to even do there main weapons. Ohh and +35% sliced bowcasters : )

Can anyone give me an idea what i should sell these at?? I used to sell grenades for 5k for c12 10k for C22, 15k glop and cryo and 25k for protons but people say thats way to low... /shrug i never advertised and would sell a few crates a month. I think thats one reason why i didnt sell many.. My freind made um for me and i sold um.. rockets too. But now i plan on advertising and i know i need to raise my prices just not sure how much.

Any help would be apreciated by this wookie

Personally, with the demand and resource requirements for grenades, I rarely if ever use best possible resources for them. You can use 2nd, 3rd or even 4th best resources that are 'obsolete' for the purposes of all other weapons and they still sell at an amazing rate.

As for prices, I really only make C12, Thermal and Protons. C12s 30-35k per crate, Thermals 75-80k per crate and Protons 90k-100k per crate. I am lucky in that I have some factories placed by friends/guildees so I can keep a virtually constant production line running.

someone recently sold crates of thermal detonators on our server...dont know what economy is like on your server but you can see what stats they had, and what they went for on radiant....

Yea i know what you mean about using high end resources,.. But honestly.. Im new on chim.. its my only thing im making and it costs me the same amount to mine good stuff or use total crap.. soo why not make the best : )If i had to purchase the stuff it would be a different storry but im a miner soo it means no difference besides ive been getting lucky with this awsome stuff on 90% and between me and a couple offreinds we have 40 miners hopefully ill beable to keep up with demand, offer at a nice fair price and keep all types with atleast 200 crates of each instock at all times.. Ill let ya know how it all goes.. Now to find the stuff to make 300 bow casters soo i can slice um : )

Those stats are fine - very similar to how my Thermals come out. I'm pricing my thermals at 55K a crate - covers my expenses and allows me to make a modest profit.

Stats look good to me also. They are a bit higher than mine so that's cool.

We've had a terrible shortage of Thoranium Steel on Radiant and the stuff is like a +25 WS Exp. tape when you find it. It's almost worth more to just sell it outright to the grindersthan make grenades from it.

Pricing all depends on the Galaxy and location. I am less than 900m from Coronet and I advertise a lot by barking at the starport. I sell out pretty consistantly on the weekends. I have 9 factories running making components and grenades. That's all they make and I can barely keep up with demand. I just started my first batch of Thermals so we'll see how they sell. Pricing will probably be a bit high but it's easier to go down than up.

Here's my pricing on what I sell.

C12's - 30K/crate

C22's - 35K/crate

Cryoban's - 40K/crate

Proton's - 100K/crate

Thermals - 130K/crate

Good luck!

I decided on 25k for C12's

40k for thermals

this is at my home base on rori.. im hoping to open up 2 more locations and ill probly tack on 5k.. ill adjust prices depending on how it all goes..

Je'Cy

stats are about average for what I have been crafting, my pricing is:

C12's - 40k

Thermals - 100k

Imperial - 100k

I run 14 factories and can't keep up with the demand.

Wow... that is incredibly cheap. C12s run 50kish, Any non-proton is usually around 100-105k, and protons... who knows. (125k+)

Hmm, I have my C12's at 15k a crate and NO ONE BUYS THEM...oh well

prices vary from server to server so all of this should be taken with a grain of salt but i used to sell c12's at 25k per crate and couldn't keep up with demand with 5 factories running. so i upped the price to 37.5k per crate. thermals i will jump up to 50k i think.

half of what makes a vendor empty quick might just be location...got a sweet spot near theed myself

Raise the price... sometimes that alone does wonders

Raised prices to 55k on thermals, and droped more factories selling out in a day LOL. 14 pumping now... think im droping 10 more.. see if 25 factories will keep me stocked : ) I just cant see raising the prices much more .. unless i just cant keep it stocked i guess we will see.
