Roblox Electric State Dark RP Wiki:Market Prices

This is essentially a guide to marketing that provides reasonable prices for marketable items. Any price not on this page is relatively expensive for the basic market and you'd be able to find a better price on another server quite easily

Profit
You should sell the item for more than what it's worth. When you earn extra money off of selling items, you've gained a profit. To earn a profit, sell the item higher than its unit price. If you sell it lower than the unit price, you will lose money and you'll not gain any profit. If you use dispensers, keep in mind that it will tax 15% of its price, meaning you need to sell it for at least 16% more to earn a profit. The formula for calculating profit is as follows: ((Sell Price x Shipment Quantity) x 17/20) - Shipment Price = Profit. You can also do the following:

To figure out how much an item is worth, divide the amount the crate costs by the number of items in the crate. For instance, the Bloxy Cola crate is $1000 and contains eight Bloxy Colas. $1000 divided by eight is $125 (the unit price of Bloxy Cola), therefore you should sell Bloxy Cola for more than $125. However, if you sell something for TOO high of a price, there will be fewer people purchasing your item. The same goes for if your shop is harder to get to than a competitor, or has more expensive items than a competitor. (This is an example of how to make a profit)

Key
Please note that the price range for items without a unit price may be inaccurate since there is no defined price for that item.
 * The price, in this guide, is a range of two numbers. You should sell the item at the price between those numbers. Remember that the price range is entirely subjective.
 * Unit Price is the objective price of the item
 * Unit Price (+ Tax) is the price you would need to sell in a dispenser to break even.
 * [|Shipment] Price is the cost of the shipment (crate) of the item
 * Crafting Price is the cost and items needed to make the item
 * Quantity is the amount of items you get per shipment or if you craft
 * Capital Price is the money earned from selling the item using the Capital Cargo Station
