Nope I know places that you can buy them for 13k. Look around for agriculture imperial highly populated systems

Look for high population Imperial agriculture systems owned by Denton Patreus. One of his control benefits is 10% cheaper Imperial slaves.

LTT 8517 (Hopkins Dock) selling for around 13.2ish - Lusonda (Lee Orbital) buying for around 18ish. It is a 40ly jump one way, and the return trip is pretty bleak (crop harvesters/marine equipment). Be careful as your cargo will be illegal once you get to Lusonda. Supposedly it is a well know route so be careful of pirates that be prowling around. I am sure there are better routes out there, but you are welcome to that one. I have been using it for a while and have seen little to know price swing on the Imperial "workers", but there seems to be a big swing back and forth between the crop harvesters and marine equipment.

If you are going to do this you may as well commit. Hold off on the Asp for a T6 (500k round trip with 100 ton cargo) unless you want to gut the asp for cargo only, next get a T7(1 Mcr just dropping off the slaves). Within a week you will probably be in a Clipper.

With just a little dedication you can be making a solid 1Mcr+ on just the imp slave delivery.

P.S. This is what smuggling is truly all about, you mess up and get scanned and you literally will be paying your whole profit from a run in fines. Fly white knuckled CMDR.

As a general rule of thumb high population agricultural hubs controlled by torval with legal imperial slaves are the best play to pick them up. And 8517 is a pirate hot spot so look out. ;-p

I stopped bothering with the return route. Getting around 400-500 cr per ton isn't worth enough to me. When I could return in 2 jumps without the cargo and just do another 5.6k CR/T profit slave smuggling run.

I rather enjoy when there are a few CZs on the return trip. I go back with no cargo and with a few quick kills in a CZ I can more than double what my profits would have been and spice the grind up some so to speak.

Orang bussel gateway has slaves at 13.4k but good luck finding a place to sale them and bring back something to sale.

Seems to be much easier. Not worse than smuggling. And nothing like "400-500" of course.
