The prestige to place the item gets refunded, however the salvage made item is lost.
Actually, it seems that the item is returned to inventory when sold. I'm not sure whether it's original creator's or the seller's inventory though.
i'd imagine the sellers one, could be wrong tho o.O
Returned to the inventory would be good

Slightly OT...
Do conttructed items cost less than ready items? (assuming the item can be made as well as bought)
Also:
Can you sell your salvage constructed item for prestige?

If you have nothing useful to say, you have two choices: Say something useless or stay quiet.
Don't know
and
No. However I heard a rumour about salvage shops in a future update.

[/ QUOTE ]No item can be both crafted and bought, it's one for the other.
And you can sell them for the same amount of prestige it costs to place them.

Most items constructed can't be bought off the shelf. But for those that can. usualy yes.

Ask on the request channel ingame. people have been buying and selling salvage. I am considering setting up a store of sorts myself.
So wait..... you construct something on a workbench... and it COSTS YOU PRESTIGE TO PLACE? Whats the point in that? (aside from being able to construct items that you can't buy...)
If I can construct a mission computer, surely that should cost me no prestige at all... just use up the salvage I've got... otherwise I may as well buy the computer anyway as its still gonna cost.....?
Can this be clarified?
If you construct an item out of salvage, does it cost prestige to place in the base?
yes
can i do that one any clearer?
As the SG leader can I move stuff people have placed in our base? I mean if someone stuck a salvage based item somewhere really silly or just somewhere I don't like it, will I be able to shift it about like normal items or is it a case of lump it or sell it? :s
Yes, something you construct out of salvage costs prestige to place. However, it's usually cheaper than the bought option (ie 97k compared to 106k), but may not be as efficient in terms of control or power used. It's a tradeoff. In most circumstances, buying an item directly may be preferable. Building something from salvage is only really for items that cant be bought or if you're really tight for prestige and need something urgently (you can replace it with the bought item later).
Last night a lot of our SG was on, I asked them all to give me all their salvage so as i can build stuff on the workshop tables.
Brilliant i managed to make some tech material, tech power and a few other nik naks.
Then with all these items i had a look to see what cool stuff i could make for the base.
I manged to make a holodisplay, a teleport. and a mission computer. But due to me not paying attention i ended up making 2 x mission computers. (DOH!)
What i was wondering is how do i get rid of the second mission computer from my personnel inventory.
Unfortuantly we do not have enough prestige to place any of these items in the base as of yet, so cant even highlight them. 
I can't see no option to sell, delete these personnel items. or will i get that option when we have enough prestige banked to actually select them ?
I realise the salvage will be lost on that item, but i feel 2 x mission computers is a tad over kill for our little tiny base.
or can you trade persennol items to others as im sure some one else could prob use a spare mission computer in there base

When it's made, it's made, you can't remove it or regain the salvage used :P
Nor can you trade them!
The whole concept of bases are lacking ALOT and I DO hope that we will be seeing alot of patches doing things to bases and their function!

(Not just SG leader, but ranks who have the base editing rights - normally leaders thou). Yes, you can move the items around in the base editing mode. Unfortunately I dont see a way to move the items between rooms (even if they'd be suitable rooms). Couple of times some bug has allowed me to do this with deco items but normally i dont think its supposed to work. The bases are bugged as an ant's nest.
So if theres 2 transport rooms next to each other, I dont think we could move a telepad between them. Yesterday I downsized our transport room when I realized I couldnt fit raid teleporter in the same room as our 2 telepads, cause the bloomin room has a cap of 2 teleporters. In order to do the downsizing, I sold the telepads and had to reconstruct them from salvage.

Agreed.
I don't know if you can delete them once you've made one.. But if you're really that annoyed at having 2 in your inventory you could join another SG who has the 75k prestige and a control room (sans mission computer), and place one there, and then mosey on back to your own one?
I had a mission computer. Placed it, and it told us we can't run missions until we have a base teleporter, so I sold it to get the prestige back so we could work towards a TP room (150k) and teleporter. Unfortunately like has been pointed out I lost the mission computer, it didn't get returned or anything, just blam! Vanished.
Ah well, 6 Tech Materials are easy enough to create. Just a bummer.
Oh, you can keep it and then drop it in our base if you're looking for a home for it, heh, well, when we get enough prestige for it to be useful..
Shrug.

[/ QUOTE ]But dont you lose all your items when quitting your SG?
Nope the only thing you lose is your prestige. But the sg you leave keeps it.
And you do lose any items that you've placed... but you've effectively given up control of them to the base leaders as soon as you place them, so they're not yours anymore anyway.

manged to place one of the mission computers , then decided to delete it to see waht would happen.
The item is lost, it is NOT returned to inventory. Prestige is refunded to the SG.
Since i had 2 of these made i it thought would be worth the experiment to delete it after placing.
So if deleteing crafred stuff please note you will loose the item.

We finally got a workbench up and running and I built a telepad and mission computer - thanks to the gigantic pile of salvage I was hauling around with me.
Couldn't place the telepad for obvious reasons.
But could place the mission computer - which I didn't dare do. I have no editing rights and am not a leader within the SG. Given that it costs 75k to place I though I'd better check what happens if one of folk on the SG decide they don't want a mission computer yet and sell it. Do we get the 75k back? And what happens to the mission computer? Sodl for ZERO?
