Sorry if there's a thread about this already, but in case there's not, as the title says - where's the best place to sell low temp diamonds near the Borann system?

The game is only displaying 200,000 to 500,000 credit prices - i thought these were supposed to be worth a few million each? :D .

If someone posted here that xyz is the best place to sell, by the time you reached there it would have lost its prices. You really have to search for yourself and sell in moderate (not Cutter-full) numbers. Outstations sometimes appear to offer the better prices, especially those further away from the main star in the system.

Advice - open eddb.io and search for the stations buying LTDs and sort by "last updated"

Then avoid those. :LOL:

This has been known a couple weeks now due to youtube vids on the subject. And honestly its needed cause mining is an atrociously boring activity so it should have ways to pay REALLY well. On-top of the fact of how outrageously expensive Fleet Carriers and their upkeep will be, there needs to be a high paying / easy money way. Even someone like me who DETESTS mining and hates having to do it due to how boring it is, is slogging through it so I can either eventually see something fleet carrier related, or at least have some extra ship options. Not like there's much else to do.

I don't think mining should be rewarded because it's boring; I think anyone who does something boring in a video game is doing it to themselves. But I think it should be rewarded because it's cool hard-SF and underpins an economy in space. (OK, activities which underpin economies aren't usually rewarded well, but I can dream).

I think the present popularity of mining is just a craze though. As I reported in another thread, experiments have convinced me that I can earn almost as much doing delivery missions as I can mining. This "mapped mining" could change that, but I probably wouldn't be quick enough at it to tip the balance.

Also, be aware that when you come into dock, it scans how much cargo you have and bases the price off of how much cargo you are bringing in. If you are selling more than 500, sell 100t at a time, and wait 10 minutes (staying in the sell window) and in 10 minutes, the price will go up. Checking EDDB will give you a good indicator of your price, but don't count on it as it all depends on how much you have in your holds

It fluctuates, if you're willing to haul them to Robigo it fluctuates around that price or 1.5.

I'm just glad another easy money source exists in a game where it's devs constantly punish their players and make their game feel un-fun, treating it as if it's supposed to either be our ONLY game we play or a second job. I like space games, I like the lore, but damn this game is super grindy. I have to play it in small spurts due to how grindy it is. As of this post I have 1,693 hours logged in on Steam and while that's small compared to some people, I shouldn't have to feel like I'd have to make this my only game to get ahead.

Last night,I had 522t of LTDs in my cutter, got to robigo (OMFG) and it was 925k per ton.. that's when i realized something about the station bases its price off how much is in your hold.
