Does anyone know about an accessible system that has a discount for a FDL?

Could really do with checking Mahon and Hudson discounts that were broken, maybe the Diamondback again too, I don't really go that side of space that often...

Today, I checked that the Asp and Orca are still selling at 20% discount at Irkutsk starport in Alioth system, the Diamondback Explorer is still selling at 20% discount at Hamilton Gateway starport in Wolf 406 system, and the Eagle is still selling at 20% discount at Daedalus starport in Sol system. I have an Elite rank, so the following prices include Elite rank discount:

Code:
ship                 purchase price       starport          system
==================================================================
Asp                     5,195,700         Irkutsk            Alioth
Diamondback Explorer    1,477,913     Hamilton Gateway      Wolf 406
Eagle                      34,944         Daedalus            Sol
Orca                   37,861,112         Irkutsk            Alioth

Use the following information to determine whether the module discounts are working for Zachary Hudson and Edmund Mahon at the moment:

Code:
module                        purchase price     starport      system
=====================================================================
Beam Laser turreted D3         18,914,610        Daedalus       Sol
Cargo Rack (Capacity: 64) E6      282,821        Irkutsk       Alioth
Hull Reinforcement Package D5     351,000        Irkutsk       Alioth
 
No, I am not. Nor are most. So that would not be helpful to most people. As a matter of fact, that's actually a perk of being a Kickstarter Backer, so those who would have that potential, would probably already know about it.

Does anyone know about an accessible system that has a discount for a FDL?

if you are still looking then -> Gunn Station in BD-28 413
 
Has any found the Federal Gunship in Li Yong Rui's space yet?

To be honest I haven't looked, it may change after Beta anyway but if you are desperate I'll head there early next week and verify if Lembava or Diaguandri has one. I seem to remember the Dropship being absent so it may be worth me having a look around anyway.

I spent 56+ mil for a stock python....darn-it! Then found a station that had it on sale for 43 Mil...think it was in Tabit at Hobercity(15 Ship shipyard) or it was in Furbaide at ger Port....I wrote down these two stations because their Shipyards contain 12 and 15 ship types....not sure which had the Discount....srry.

You can still replace your stock Python. ;)
 
Try a(ny) high-tech system in Li Yong-Rui Controlled and Exploited systems. Both Diaguandri and Lembave have a big shipyard and a great deal of components for 15% discount.
This lowers repair cost and rebuy/insurance, so it's always worth it (besides the moar credits on your deposit) ;)

I'm at 109 Piscium now looking to buy an Asp. The price is 5.661 M Cr, which is not 15% discount from the stated price at http://www.edshipyard.com/#/L=70g,01Q0Wg,2-3I6u4s6u1k8S6k,mpT08c05U5PU5iE2jw2UI
The retail price there is 6.135 M. Has the price risen with the latest FD update? Or, should I fly elsewhere looking for a better deal. Thanks.

While I'm here, I can check prices on any ship you might be interested in.
You're looking in the wrong place at edshipyard. Top line is the cost of the hull alone (no modules). The actual price you'd pay with no discounts is at the bottom, including all the E rated default modules (before you started changing the loadout, that is).

That's why I didn't bother going there, or any other place that a permit is needed. I want a ship, and I want it now.

Lembava and Diaguandri, both are single jump from each other and between the two I bought and kitted out my Python. You will get around 15% discount in both. This is where you will get your ship my friend
 
Can anyone help me find a discounted D5 thruster for an Anaconda. Already checked Friend Terminal and Ray Gateway

You could check Arjung, also discounts and seemed to have big ship parts, and sells a Conda. Might be worth a check. Can't recall the station name from the top of my head though.

EDIT: Hiyya Orbital. Inara to the rescue :D

Just want to add that B5 is the smallest set of thrusters you can fit on an Anaconda, so if you do it for mass-related reasons, D6 is your best bet.
 
I couldn't get into Alioth to get an Orca, I don't have the permit. I got one at Lembava earlier today on a 15% discount.
This is on Xbox GPP3/1.4 Beta galaxy. Would the live server be carrying the same stock? I got mine for 41 million cr
