I've been a Master WS for a bit now and I have been trying to buy up skill tapes to achieve 12 point, right now I am at 11 points, (+12 Exp overall). But money is wearing thin and I have noticed that unless you're makingrare-loot made weapons (krayt/acklay ect.), you don't sell really anything.
The resources I work with are extremely high quality, and I was wondering if any 11pt smiths have had luck selling their enhanced weapons.
*edit* Oh, and while we are at it.... is there even a point to making non-enhanced weapons anymore?

Krayt tissues are cheap now a days (Talk to a smith who has been around for a year or two). Get some and make some semi-decent weapons and they will sell for some nice profit. Won't get you the payoff as some of the double cap weapons but they can keep ya going.

Non enhanced weapons still sell, just not at the rate that they use to. You can be successful even if you are only a 10 point smith if you target the right group. Try making only low SAC weapons and market that. Just pick an angle and try to work it.
yes, but if you were a 12-point smith you could make 1 to 5 MIL a day 
ahhh just givin ya a hard time, I commend you for making the most of your situation instead of whining "I can't compete" like others have.

QFE. I'm a ten point smith and my goal is to keep everything in stock. I try to stock everything from survival knives to flame throwers. I haven't made a single weapon with any loot and I'm still getting no less than 100k of sales a day. Everything I make I mark up 1000% of the cost of the resources. I'm having difficulting keeping up.

Oh you pwned me. What do you do with 1 to 5 mil a day anyway? I'm not going to whine about anything. This is an alt char that I unlocked when my main became Jedi. With the CU coming out I found my alt couldn't find a weapon that was certed for CL0, so I started making them. WaerbGloofin Bargain Weapons was formed. 
The key is to set short term attainable goals. Perhaps someday I'll go for the 12pt route. Until then I'll sell the crystals my Jedi keeps passing me. 
, and resource deeds sure do last longer.
