After looking over the trade board the past few days, I have come to see that most
people are just picking random numbers off the top of their heads. 300 million for any
one sailor is just insane even if it is level 120. =da= has set out to hopefully put an
end to all that. The guide that Bullitt4106 & myself have come up with should help to
provide a basic starting point for all sailors. Below is a link to a PDF file that we
created.

http://dafleet.pfwebsite.com/price_list.pdf

This PDF lists the prices for sailors from level 12 - 120. We broke it down by the base
stats as this is the most important feature when deciding the price of a sailor you are
selling or buying. The stats are broken down as follows...Elite, 12/11 or 11/12, 12/10
or 10/12, 11/11, and 11/10 or 10/11. We did not include anything lower than these
base stats as it is very easy to roll for the above stats and get them. And before
anyone says anything about it, I know there is not a stat for 12/12. Let뭩 face it, this
is such a rare stat that it did not need to be added in. If you find yourself buying or
selling one of these, then please just use your best judgment on it.
Now, as far as the starting point for this guide, we tried to use a numbering system
that was fair to both the buyer & the seller. You will notice that at the top of the list
we have a conversion chart for premium items located in the NF store.

**Disclaimer: We are not saying that people should buy and sell premium items for
in game credits. We are just using this as a starting reference for this guide. **

As we all know, you cannot trade a sailor unless he is level 12 or higher, and you can
buy a level 12 elite sailor from the site @ $3.00. So with that in mind, we set the
starting price for a level 12 elite @ 3 million. From there we simply implemented a
numbering system to add credits at a per level basis all the way up to level 120. We
then used this same numbering system for all the other base stats, but just started
them at a slightly lower rate than the elites. The end result is a much more
organized way of pricing sailors for everyone involved. No more guessing at what the
sailor is worth.

We have also added an area at the bottom to show a price listing for experts & vets.
This pricing is also based off the item conversion chart from the top. You will also
notice that we have added an example of how to figure the total cost for your sailor,
as well as an example of what my actual UK BB5 crew would figure out to be if I were
to sell them using this pricing guide.

Please keep in mind that this is merely meant to act as a guide. As with all business
and trades, there should still be room for bargaining. Some may try to sell a little
higher or buy a little lower, and this is perfectly okay to do. This is the essence of
normal business in the real world.

*Edit: We are currently working to get this info added to a database on our site so
that you can go to it and just plug in the info and hit a "calculate" button. It will then
add up all the info for you and display the total cost. Once this has been completed, I
will post a link to it for all to use. Until then, please let me know your thoughts on the
guide. We are not sure how other servers have their pricing system setup so please
no comments of how this system does not work for pricing on other severs. As the
header states: "Bismarck Pricing Guide".

Thanks,
