I am uncertain on how to price certain rare/enhanced weaponry. These include:


-Items made from Acklay Bones

-Enhanced Vibro Knucklers (168 max damage in my case, plus 19 to range)

-Distrupter Rifles (in my case 342 max dmg, 5.8 spd, plus 92 Range, 892 condition)

-Nightsister Lances (300+ max dmg in my situation)

-DE-10 Pistols


Concerning the items made with Acklay Bones, I had to purchase these loots for 200k per bone, but I dont know how to increase pricing to make a profit margin. The bones are 80 minimum and 120 maximum damage.


The Disrupter Rifles were made with green cubes, stocked, and Scoped with standard scopes ecperimented for range.


Any help or personal experience would be appreciated.


Thank you.


P.S. I actually havent been making many sales at all lately. Maybe some help on how to get customers would also be good?

leave the items out on your shop, and when people send you a /tell ask for an offer, you'd be amazed what some people will offer...


Depending if it is unsliced or not affects the price.. If it's unsliced, and parts cost 200k, charge at least 300k but get whatever you can. If it is sliced, and you get a bad slice, you can possibly lose credits cause people would rather have an unsliced than a 17% speed slice. High DMG slices on acklay batons on Chlastra go for millions depending on how good they are.

Yes, I agree with Stettin on most accounts....


You can price them similar to how you price the rest of your stock as well....thinking about how much the loot enhancements cost you. And it's not a bad idea to ask around for quotes ingame...ask on your Trade Board as well to get an Idea what someone might pay....there's lot's of ways to get an idea for a good selling price. When you get down to it though...it's all about if you felt you made a good sale...you don't necessarily have to sell it for an enormous amount...
