Money Confirmation

[Crest]

I am always looking at money ideas and her is a new one.

I have sourcedmy details on Croncom so if they are not accrate then neither am I

Buy for / Sell for / Make
NEXT Vehicle Component 1 1775 / 158 D
NEXT Vehicle Component 2 1988 / 177 B
NEXT Vehicle Component 3 201 / 196 A

According to their theory on CronCom you need only vehicle comp part 1 to make Vehicle comp 3. This means that it is cheaper to make a vehicle comp 3 than a vehicle comp 1 (Which needs Comp Part 4).

Is this an error on Cron Com or does this mean anyone can make 4x cash making them as you lay out 80cr making a Comp part 1, then no more costs to make a Comp 3.

Sell comp 3 for 196, after costing you 88cr. Definate profit. This is without a barter. You would need an op, then no skills on construction as Op will give you enough (TL needed is 36).

Maybe its just me....maybe croncom is wrong and maybe it non of the above

Comp.3 is TL 36, so you need Construction Grease to build ...

umm, have you BP'd the Vhc comp 3? That would be the easiest way of knowing what it consists of...and since I'm at work I can't do it.
I would assume that the formula is missing another comp part, should probably be A + something else.
And the fact that the prices you listed go from 1 = 1775, 2 = 1988, 3 = 201? has got to be a typo (missing another digit?). All the parts increase in price as the part #'s increase, afaik.

The Info on CronCom ist right.

VC 1 = VHCP 4
VC 2 = VHCP 2
VC 3 = VHCP 1

price for VC3 at NPC shoud be 2202...

(i've builded about 1000 Troop Carriers from chemicals... i know it without making a BP :-))

hmmm, weird. Thx 4 the info DV.
Thought about making a shitload of comp 3's, but then I did the math.
88nc for chems to build comp part 1's, 196nc for completed comp 3's = profit of 108. Build 100 3's will prolly take you an hour since you have to build both the comp parts and then the comps. That would be 10,800 nc profit w/o barter. with barter you might double or triple ur profit? So 21,600 or 32,400 for an hours worth of work with 3 different characters (unless you plan to drive out in the wastes to use an OP).
Unless you just started out new characters and want to make some cash while leveling this wouldn't be a very effective way of getting cash.
I've used 3 different characters to mass produce weapons and the profit made from selling the zero or 1 slotters is much greater than this, typically 2000+ profit for each weapon sold back, and you get the chance to get a 4 or 5 slotter:D
