Don't know where you guys are buying ships... Python is 50 ish million

56,978,179 to be exact not to mention the upgrades a good combat version will run you about 125 million possibly more depending on your weapon selection and internal compartment moduels

Edit: There is also some systems that apparently have 10% discount but they are decently hard to find and it doesn't last very long and if you need the discount to buy it you really shouldn't be buying it at all lol

RARE ITEM TRADING is where ALL the $$ is at!

Where? :S

I've been doing the Diso-Fujin run, and there's never more than 16t of rares at each end - and usually less. I started doing this run after reading here about people picking up *dozens* of tonnes at Diso and Fujin, yet have never seen anything like that... Did FD adjust the quantities, or did they decrease because of more people picking them up? (shared galaxy, etc.)

Diso used to sell 50t of corn, then it got stealth nerfed.

Yes from Empire space where I buy them legally and cheap and then I transport them to a Archon Delaine exploited system for the bonus to black market sales.... there are far more people who can afford an anaconda than 6 of you .... it is just most people understand that you need like 300 million to properly outfit it and dont want to roll around in a piece of ....

That's a pretty good route and yeah there's definitely more especially considering it seems only a select few of us actually use these forums out of the probably few million who play

Nothing about a Conda is worth bragging about. Its not a good fighter, my asp can easily maneuver behind it and rip it. Its not great at exploring. Its cargo hold is disappointingly small. So what you have a a moving small city that costs way to much to not only buy but get kitted correctly

Now if you want to brag then say ya I've got a T9 cause if someone has a T9 as long as i have than you know they are rich and could by many fully upgraded condas just for fun. Im not bragging but the Conda isn't that special special glad you think so

This would be true, im making 10 mil/hour on mine ....and it is smuggling I am interested how much he is making on the legit side.... smuggling is cool until you get caught wth 494 tons of Imperial Slaves in your cargo hold lol

I also fear that my route is about to go bust with the space station crash bug going on

You wouldn't mind showing me that route? I am working my ass off for a Python at the moment using this route http://galnetnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Rares-Circuit-1.jpg

on the subject of rare goods trading you don't know how often rare commodities re-stock do you? It has been puzzeling me for a while.

Actually it docks quite nicely it has very good vertical Thrusters

And also I hope no one takes offense to me saying those things about the Conda it's an amazing ship but I've noticed most of the board smuggling missions that pay upwards of 200k are almost always to outposts and that's how I make my money I had a clipper at one point and it completely killed my profit margins

Explorers and soldiers don't care about outposts

All these people bashing the anaconda and those that have one. "Hurr stop having fun in a ship that I can't afford or don't think is fun! Stop doing things I don't like!" With regards to ships, it is clearly the endgame as it has the greatest upfront cost and cost of upgrades. Right now I want to see how much money I can sink into it before FD releases the full game and all our assets are liquidated. Maybe once the full release is here I can play with my friends and keep them in my cargo bay, as the ship's description hints that it can be fitted with a landing pad to hold sidewinders. I wonder if it can hold anything that uses a small landing pad? An anaconda unleashing a vulture wouldn't be very pleasant

Update:

Once another big ship with lots of weapon hardpoints comes around I think I'll ditch the anaconda. If you look around the cockpit you can see wires hanging out everywhere. Pretty low quality for the pride of falucon delacy's fleet

Up until I looked to see if the module existed I actually thought you already could dock sidewinders and that was my really only seeing point beyond its wepon capacity

Anyone wanna PM me some good routes? I've made a lifetime total of 1 million credits or so, and wasn't even aware that free trading was a thing. I can make maybe 3-10 thousand credits total per run. I am not doing something right if you guys are making millions per run, lol. I even have a T-7 with like 60 tons for cargo space. Tried mining, and got a bunch of gold and the O stuff, Osmium? Or something like that? Got probably 80k after an hour of mining.
