What ViKKing said! :)

Use the price Jake will pay you for the car, and go over it, but notably under the price Jake sells cars for. Don't use Jake's custom-built price.

If the savings are minimal, its better to just buy your own car and set it up how you like it. That setup, for example, is unappealing to me. Fuel tank is too low and I can only fit one other person in there.

However, if the savings are very good, I would consider buying it, and then using it or converting to to what I do want. In fact, I will be looking for vehicles in the near future in Somerset, so I will keep an eye on the market.

I wouldn't pay 18500 for a pre-built symphony not built how I want it. Maybe 15000 - 16000.

For example Jake is offering round $14,000 for a combat symphony due to over

abundance of items (!!!), while the normal price for a used vehicle would be $18,000; then

sell it for $16,000.


The reason I'm not doing it like that is that I could probably just take them to somewhere

like elmsfield and sell them without losing cash like that.

Yeah I considered trying to do custom offers to get rid of the merchandise - it'd still be

faster than Jake's and you'd get your car in ~1h (But you'd have to do any fueltank changes

yourself). Also that symph is the cheapest thing I had going on (it's actually very slightly lower than Jake's high price would be if some of the stuff wasn't common)!

So I apologize for having a smaller selection than Jake's but here's what I got for customizing right now:

Chassis':
Vampire
Phoenix
Chomper
Symphony
Pickup

Weapons:
Machine Gun
Heavy Machine Gun
Rocket Launcher
Micro-Missile Launcher
Car Rifle
Flaming Oil Jet

Engines:
2L
2.5L
3.2L
4L

The armor on the cars is going to stay as it is since there's no refunds for that and you can always add more yourself or get it shot off in a combat to get your money's worth ;)

How much discout you get depends on how much you buy but it should be at least 4-5k off Jake's building prices.

*sam* said:
It's probably just the general quietness in the game that's stopping you selling much right now. But we'll fix that...  B)


Yeah, also I'm sure these offers would be great for new players who are just starting out and getting their first car...

Hmm maybe I should make a decent scouting car that's good just to start out with that I could sell for 20k...

One nested market would be to sell chassis alone.
If someone has enough parts to complete a vehicle but only lack a rolling chassis, then he might be interested.

If you are looking to sell vehicles ready for new sunscribers, you may be looking for a final price below $20,000 (as they are supposed to earn that money with their subscription).
Eventually, remove a weapon or two to match the limit.

Have you considered getting a sign for you business? ;)

Heh, I like the names you make up for them :-)
Would it be ok if I steal a few of these names the next time I make some new NPC vehicles?

As Jake's decided to start ripping people off even more and rocket launchers are more expensive now my prices have gone up by a bit too, but I'm also able to give you a higher discount now.

Also these offers will probably stop coming in near future with the garage limits and all so grab what you can. :p
