If I sold every ship I had, I could get a Python...

Go for it? Don't? Thoughts?

I've always considered that a number of my ships are just stored investments, in the case of need, I can sell them, I'd say go for it, but only if you can also afford the re-buy.

Negative. Rebuy costs must be covered as well. Even the most cautious pilot can lose it all.

Besides, getting a python and just basic mining gear isn't going to make you happy at all. It'll be severely limited and vulnerable, giving you a sense of being on a tight leash. Wait a bit first. Build up more credits.

If you mean an A-rated Python with money left over for mining gear on top of at least a few rebuys, then it might be worth considering if you're really not happy with your current ships. The Python is arguably the best example of a true "do anything" ship, so it wouldn't pigeonhole you into into a single playstyle.

But saying that, it's nice to keep a stable of ships rather than going all in with a single one. If you don't want to wait until you can get a Python without selling anything, I'd suggest at least saving enough to buy one by selling modules rather than whole ships. You don't lose any money by selling modules, but hulls do depreciate.

Do what makes you happy. Just whatever you do, don't end up flying a budget Python without rebuy.

You need 100mil to make a python you would love, until then just enjoy those you got. I still fly my Cobra most of the time in the game.

You could get a basic python, pack it with cargo racks and do a few deliveries to the current CG at Khun. Then reap the benefits of a nice payout in a week's time.

But don't do it without sufficient rebuy.

I'd never sell all my ships to buy one (but then again, I've never sold a ship and don't plan on it). Unless you can afford to fit it decently and have a couple rebuys, just keep saving.

I sold my FDL to get my Python and while it is a great ship to run missions in I never loved it. Maybe if I kept it and engineered it I would have eventually fallen in love with it but nah.

Nope, dont sell the other ships.

Remember, if you have to sell your other ships just to afford a bigger one means you cant afford it and you'll just be losing credits.

Earn some more credits before getting the Python and outfitting her. Make sure you also have enough Credits for a few re-buys.

If you can't afford it without selling off your entire fleet, then you're not ready for it. Keep working, you'll get there. Just be patient.

And for the love of whatever you find holy, do NOT fly without at least one rebuy. I prefer 4 or 5 just to be safe.

I'd say go for it, the python can do everything it's arguably the best ship in game

I hate it as I have no reason to use anything else besides my fdl for bounty hunting

Better to wait until you can sell enough ships to get two pythons (then buy one). Also to fully engr a python. Meanwhile, use the AspX. Great ship and makes credits well.

No. Python is tough and has good cargo space. AspX has everything else. You need both, at least. Oh, and don't sell the Cobra!
