I'm now looking to trade on the space markets for the following:-

30,000 interceptors. 1 - 2,000,000 int missiles.
30,000 helicopters. 1 - 2,000,000 missiles.
25,000 Anti Aircraft Missile Batts. 2,000,000 missiles
35,000 Defensive Missile Batts. 2 - 3,000,000 missiles
40,000 Mid Range Missile Batts. 2 - 3,000,000 missiles

Fighter planes (maybe 36k), Precision bombers (40k) THESE ARE MAYBES! As in i may buy them dependent on the offer provided for the above and what you'll sell them for.

I've enough GC to purchase all at once, but i will state it CLEARLY here, i expect a healthy discount.

I'm looking for mobile units, but as most people won't lower their price, i'll hold off on it.

No time wasters. I'm here to do business. Reply back on here or pm me. Thank you :)

Planning to defend against an invasion? I've heard of no rumblings to indicate this...

There's a saying:-

A sphere has 2 faces, one on the inside, one on the outside.

That is all.

Please stay on topic.

Thank you.

clearly i had a problem with my browser

Space Center Concord
Helicopters 17,000
Helicopter Missiles 1,596,250
Interceptors 31,982
Interceptor Missiles 2,898,750

all at 450 Q ready to sell

for the other stuff, i'm not even close, but i've got maybe a 3rd of the ammo, at 390-400 Q, but no docks on canri.

it was my intention, to setup for the offensive ground on on corona,. and lepus, maybe by feburary, with MRMB, L2SMB, OAAMB, LBC, CMBM, ATMB and their ammo, but i can make adjustments, depending on if you find a seller straight away, and how much your willing to spend

How about we do a deal for the first two with missiles and then you'll know i'm serious?

However, i would pref if you could hit 2 million missiles with the helis?

As stated before, i'm looking for a discount. That's the most important thing to me. High volume purchase, i expect the discount :)

P.s. I'd prefer for speedy transactions so that i can move onto other weapon purchases.

Also looking to buy 50 cargo shuttles with 3032 missions left.

Hit me up if your selling.

Edit:

Interceptor missile requirements have been reduced to 200,000.

Everything else still stands for now.

my current prices are already at 25-30%, of the minimum market price, given the GC conversion

i can't really justify going lower on these, its already bare bottom

I've sent you a pm Josias.

Interceptor missiles have been purchased.
Interceptors and all other listed weapons still required.

Thank you for the quick trades.

1,000,000 still remain. Still open for trades.

If you would like to make some deals on Mobile Units I suggest putting up some reasonable offers at the space station. Good luck.

Seeing as most of the people who are 'big' in the space trade have stayed quiet, i'll wait until i've got my defensive and offensive weapons / ammo.

Once that's done, i'll look to mobiles, unless someone starts bartering with me earlier :)

interesting CJ, i'd like to here more of your view

for instance, Mobile stealth wings

2340 professional soldiers, = 1.68 GC
1430 professional officers, = 3.43 GC
has a GC base cost of 5.11 GC

Stealth Bombers are now selling for 2-2.5 GC at a max 450Q, and those are sold at a heavy discount.

even tho the SB are purchased with game cash, their is a high enough turn over on Cervus, to strengthen the base GC value of MSW, to 7.61 Base GC cost. and i haven't added LGB as a consideration

this is one way to look at it of course. but even the base professional cost of 5.11GC doesn't account for the SB/LGB, the upgrades, and the time of waiting for the units to complete

so you have an item on Cervus, with a base GC value of 7.61, being sold for 8 GC, it would seem to me, that you can't reasonably expect a lower price. and this is with out taking into consideration the LGB, and all the upgrades.

for the other units, you'll see a similar theme, Mobile units have a base GC for professionals, then require allot of upgrades.

as it stands, nothing happened at all on crucis, when players did the math and charged the 25-30 GC price building one worked out to. it wasn't until i started lowering the prices to what they are now, that any one would even talk about them.

i am very happy to offer space prices for open discussion. i've made over 10K GC from space trade over the last couple years, and have, entirely from my own investments, brought life to 3 space stations

lets talk about the original request of this thread.

1 Million Helicopter missiles.

2.07M per one, at base market price
2.07T for 1M missiles at 100Q
9.315T value at 450Q, (easier than calculating 330Q and millions of upgrades.)

at 30B per GC, has a GC conversion cost of 310GC

that means if you where to swipe your card, youd have to convert 300+ GC to purchase and upgrade 1M helicopter missiles. at the base market cost. if you could manage to get 1M at low cost, your still talking 150-160GC

my current price of 0.2 per 5K at 450Q, works out to 40GC per 1 M missiles. that is about 25% the cost, at the lowest price. if you could manage to buy 1 M HM at the lowest price.

i'll offer that this isn't an exact estimate, its my understanding that the upgrading process is cheaper than the out right quality adjustment. but it still presents the fact that space prices are extremely low

Heli missiles will be soon purchased.

Moving onto other weapons as stated.

25,000 Anti Aircraft Missile Batts. 2,000,000 missiles
35,000 Defensive Missile Batts. 2 - 3,000,000 missiles
40,000 Mid Range Missile Batts. 2 - 3,000,000 missiles

THESE ARE CRUCIAL PURCHASES.

Lets fire away folks.

for the ammo, i'm about half way, with 400Q ish

Anti Aircraft Missiles 1,055,137 410
Missile Interceptors 2,000,853 394
Defensive Missiles 1,144,309 399

so ammo wise, i'm 2ish weeks out, for the weapons, i've got some, but i'm more in the 2-3 weeks range. additionally, i have no docks on canri, but i can set up something.

anyways, thats what i've got, maybe some one can beat me to it.

Not missile interceptors.

Mid range missiles lol

Josias, let's finish the heli contract, then move onto the rest. One step at a time.

missed that,

i've got the batts, but just shy of 2M missiles, i've been working on stock piling those, in anticipation of opening up those markets. my plan was February, but i can set up something sooner

but yeah, lets get through the HM first

Yes Orbiter, the Mobile SB wings are shockingly inexpensive. But you've seen the offers of 1 GC or less. A joke I guess. My take is that a reasonable offer doesn't go unfilled very long, that's why you don't see them. That market seems a little up in the air right now with the lack of Professionals available. I make my prices based solely on the cost of Pros. I eat the cost of weapons, ammo, and all upgrades. For that I want a small profit in GC. If you gave it away some would still ask for a discount.

Mobile SB wings are shockingly inexpensive

To get 10 wings, it's 80gc.
To get 10 wings of normal Stealths, you could get away with 40gc. (2gc for stealth, 2 gc for bombs)

Yes there is a quality difference, but IS it worth the extra 40gc?

judge for yourself

and because i don't want to start a thread to point out something silly,

atm, their are 9 unique active shuttle trade routs going, between 4 planets, 4 space stations, and 5 players.

i just thought that was cool enough to mention
