Thread: Pricing for Tradeskills V2.0

  1. #1

    Pricing for Tradeskills V2.0

    FIRST: These numbers are good basic numbers for tradeskills. If you get good fast service you can/should consider tipping over the charge if you can well afford it.

    Please if you want to make things for free drop a msg below with what you'll do for free and I'll put you at the bottom of this msg. To those who would get something done for free please do not hound them. Drives tradeskillers insane to do that

    Pricelist V2.2

    AI Armor:
    QL100-150 - 3M / w/psychology - 5M
    QL151-250 - 5M / w/psychology - 7M
    QL250-300 - 8M / w/psychology - 10M
    **Psychlogy should give you a extra 2M as its a boatload of IP to be spent.

    Combined Armor : 5-10M since your already there. Its your choice.

    Note: The follow "anything" is everything but AI armor since AI armor isnt just 1 skill requirement its 4-5 by the time your through and some are combined skill lvls you have to meet.

    Anything requiring 1250+ in QFT : 5M EACH!
    Anything requiring 1250-1800 in Psychology 5M " " " " " "
    Anything requiring 1250-1800 in WS : 5M " " " " " "
    Anything requiring 1250-1800 + in Pharm: 5M " " " " "

    Implants: 125-200 1K per QL per piece. Minimum charge is 2K per the level of the person making it.**

    Nano Creation: 30-100: 3K Per QL. Minimum charge 3K per level of the person making it.**
    Nano Creation: 101-180: 4K: per QL. Min charge 4K per level of the person making it.**

    **Specialty weapons (Glyph+Weapon types) are subject to change in the near future as I get feedback on how people are creating upgrade shotguns/bows/etc and the requirements for it. I’ve made a few and people seemed REAL happy with the effectiveness and damage.


    Stims/Emergency Treatment Labs: 125-170 4K Per QL lvl + cost of items.
    Aggression Enhancer: 3K Per QL.
    Virral Triumvirate Egg : 2M Minimum.
    Augmented Bow Tie : 250K Minimum. Good tip 500-1M.
    Overtuned Tank Armor: 2K Per lvl of the person making it. Good tip: 3K per lvl of the person making it. They provide the tool**

    Tier 1 Armor: 125K For 1. 2+ 100K each. ** This should be subjective. The requirements are not that high but you should take into account the time and effort perhaps do the entire set for 500K.

    CAS/Barter Armor takes the same skill so consider I consider the following to be for both.

    CAS Symbiotic Armor 30-180: 3K per QL Minimum charge 3K per lvl of the person making it.**
    CAS Symbiotic Armor 181-200: 4K Per QL minimum charge 1M.**

    Storm/Carbonum Plate Armor: 181-200: 2K Per QL. Minimum charge 500K. Making a Full set with 30% discount. **

    Rollerrat Carbonum Helmet: 1M for the first piece 500K for each additional.

    Junk Metal : QL125-150 : 250K Min or 100K a Piece whichever is higher.
    Junk Metal : QL151-200 : 500K Min or 250K a Piece whichever is higher.
    Junk Metal : QL191-200 : 1M Min or 500K a Piece whichever is higher.
    Note: Do not bother bringing a piece that is QL210+ robot part to a tradeskills person unless you check with them first. It requires 6XQL in ME to create so the requirement is very high.

    Tier 1 Armor : 250K-500K Each
    Tier 2 Armor : 1M Each
    Tier 3 Armor : 5M Each

    Anything requiring 1250+ in QFT : 5M EACH!
    Anything requiring 1250-1800 in Psychology 5M " " " " " "
    Anything requiring 1250-1800 in WS : 5M " " " " " "
    Anything requiring 1250-1800 + in Pharm: 5M " " " " "


    Dragonflesh Armor: 1M per piece.

    Coffee Machines: 250K.

    Custom Towers: QL50-125: 4K per lvl of the person making it.**
    Custom Towers: 126-175: 500-1M each or 4K per QL lvl.**
    Custom Towers: 176-200: 2M Each.
    Custom Towers: 201-255: 5M Each.
    Custom Towers: 255-300: 10M Each
    ^^ You supply the nanobots

    Custom Laser Turrets : 160-300: 2M Each
    Sentient Corrosion Turrets: QL225-300 5M Each

    Arul Saba Bracelets :
    1 Gem Bracer : 500K
    2 Gem Bracer : 1M
    3 Gem Bracer : 3M
    4 Gem Bracer : 5M Each Side
    5 Gem Bracer : 10M Each Side

    Other considerations: The items value: If your making a GAIV you should tip heavy because of the trust involved hence the price for the VTE.



    **= Minimum charge should be whatever is the greater in the case of multiple pieces.
    Reasoning: Chemistry/Pharm Tech should cost people more. No one uses it for ANYTHING useful except for tradeskills.
    Nano creation: Requires 5 skills when creating that needs to be maintained at a decent level.
    Bronto/Flesh/Mantis/Dragon/Carb: Price of the PPPE and skills involved in creation.

    Adjustments will be made as market conditions change

    Wink

    i sugest to recreat a bit lower the prices .. with sl : peerks, new items, symbiants, the growish number of engineer ...
    particulary for jobe implants (who use them now ... ) : 5m is realy too high for Qft (maybe not for psycho ...). I charge max 1m for 1 shining ... none will accept 5 m

    ps : due to the lower number of people in rk2, i can think your prices are good, but for rk1 ... :P

    Y not just make everything for free? I do if im not incredably busy

    No one is stopping anyone doing them for free. This just serves as a helpful resource for anyone not wanting to do them for free.

    Something which I can understand completely when things like Crackerjack Sleeves are currently selling for so very much.

    the day people start selling engineer only items to engineers a realistic prices is the day that you will find tradeskiller tradeskill prices will drop.

    If people want to do if for free great
    if people want to charge a little great
    if people want to charge as per list here great

    people posting on a thread complaining about being charged or over pricing = flame = not great.

    sorry not normal for me to post like this but... well... you know

    i have a lot of respect for the engineer that wont give up the profession when they hit level 200.

    I think the numbers are:

    4 gems : 1665 ME & 1755 EE
    5 gems : 2100 ME & 2270 EE

    atleast very close to this.

    Free Tradeskills?

    I dont think so and 5M for qft/ws/whatever implants is low as I see it. I worked very hard to get my skills where they were. My items cost me a LOT of credits. I expect a return on my IP/perks/time spent playing this agravating profession.

    I make items for free to my guild. No one else. You want my skills, pay me. We deserve respect for and giving away our skills makes them like us. No, it makes people think they deserve free tradeskill items. If they want free, let them spend the IP and make it themselves ...

    I charge 2-4x more than Elbo has posted. If people want to keep making a profit from my skills, say GA4 disk. Give me 10% of the gross profit. Trust is involved. Give respect and credits also.

    Listing the price for 4 slot bracers at 10M. Let me know if this is to low. I know people who would resell it would start around 80-100M.

    4 gem bracers

    I charge 15M to make the 4 gems bracer this week only. next week and after I will be charging 25M per bracer. If people are going to charge me 100M for a sleeve and not blink ... then again If I am doing stuff I am going to charge you a lot for interrupting me. People that dislike my prices are gladly sent into limbo to wait for someone who charges less. My skill's, my IP spent, my time is worth more than you have posted up there.
    3M for 1250 QFT/ME is what I charge (and get) for implants ...

    I really can't deny the complete screwing that some of the professions give tradeskillers. Crackerjack sleeves for 50-100M (or soft/hard pppe's for 50+M).

    Msg some of the other 205+ engineers on rimor Runn and see what the pricing range is for them and if they are getting the same treatment by other professions on tradeskill items. Perhaps that will stoke the fire and prices will go up in a tit for tat retribution.

    Eh. 500K would be the mininum. Its a complete waste of time to arrange a meeting and the skill involved and time it took to get the MRR to begin with etc.

    Pricing

    I charge 25m (and get it too) for 4 gem bracers. It is my permanent price. I don't care if other engy want to undercut me, please do so, I have other things to do! 3 gem bracers are 2M flat. period. 3M for 1250 Psy/me/qft/ee/ws implants 1 or 100 but 3M. On most other things I charge based on level and need and if nano/stripped imps/armor is for you or to sell. Why do I charge so much?

    I had someone complain about my 4 gem price. I said "Bye." 2 days later they were begging me to come make their bracers and were Glad I was so Cheap! It seems some engy charge 40M+ good for them! Keep up the prices!

    100M crackerjack sleeves. x2. 60M Profiteer's helper. 100M+ for a 200 control brain! Sheesh! and thats just my recent items. Lower the cost of me getting my tradeskilling items and I will lower my prices.

    i made 4 x 4 gems bracers so far and paid 15 mil for bracer to omni engi (i am clan) and 10-15 mil (dont remember exact amount) for 3 bracers to clan engi (many thanks to them) This was 5-6 weeks ago then only few engies were able to make 4 gems bracers. Now i believe more engies have required skills so 25 mil per bracer is definitely not so cheap (for rk2 at least).

    And now we have Blondengy on the market forums advertising her making 4slots for 4 mill a piece! Thanks for ruining the one decent tradeskill we had to make money of.......get some return for our investment. I ....am sorry, but I feel this a bit illoyal to the engi community.

    Cogs, three things:

    1) Why don't you just talk to me before flameing in here? I have my reasons for that price, its not like I'm thinking "hey! lets just tear down those prices for arul saba makeing!"...

    2) I think that price is a reasonable price. Before posting I asked several people on what prices they thought where reasonable, and always got the sime kind of answer.
    Would you like MPs to start chargeing 1mil for each time they buff you CM? Or a trader to charge for each wrangle? And I know you're damn dependent on those buffs beeing a high level engineer! Just like other professions are dependant on our tradeskills. I know I certainly wouldn't like that to happen! And I'm very greatfull for every MP who just runs buy and buffs me without me actually haveing to beg everyone...

    3) I agree with people chargeing too much for some some crappy +25 tradeskill piece of armor. But why do you pay that much then? If noone payed 100mil for a crackjacker sleeve noone would even think of selling it for that much! I wanted to buy one, and to me it is worth around 10-15mil, no more. I offerend 10mil, the person said he wouldn't sell if for that much, and I didn't buy it. As simple as that. If you buy one of those sleeves for 50-100mil creds, you're backstabbing the community a lot more in my eyes! Then you're the reason for those redicoulus prices!


    Suggested price here is 15-20mil. (which in my eyes is too much) You go do it for 8 mil. (which is already a lot better in my eyes)
