I need some advice

A couple years ago back when they made 8x8 plots rent free I made a couple of teleport bases for my main VG. The bases aren't big, both consisting of an oversight center, and a teleport chamber. Each with two arcane teleporters and 4 beacons. The rooms in the abses are modestly decorated. One SG has all the beacons unlocked while the other is only missing the RWZ beacon.

Since the SG's were built as solo's they never aquired much prestige. If each SG had 15 members they's only have just over 100k prestige in one and just over 185k in the other.

My main VG has finally gotten to the point where I don't need these teleport bases anymore and I'm thinking of selling them. I just don't know what I should ask for them.

I'd appreciate some advice. Keep in mind I haven't decided if I'm going to actually sell them. I may decide to offer them to any interested party on my servers radio station channel.

Probably the most you could get for them in Inf is a couple million. Almost not worth the effort in my opinion. Maybe consider giving them to newbies interested in starting a VG as a starter base?

That's one of the ideas I've been kicking around. I'm not deluding myself as to their value. The only thing I'd consider even remotely valuable is the RWZ beacon and how hard is that to get. It just takes a mothership raid.

Or you could commit suicide directly over the bowl and your corpse will drop through the shield, hopefully close enough to the badge marker to get it, hehe. Dunno if that's been changed so that a corpse just lands on the shield, but that was how I got the badge on my Brute.

hm, not a lot. I bought a VG with med bay, storage room, teleport bay with 4 teleporters and about 2 million prestige in the bank. I paid 80 million (40M influence and 40M infamy).

Thanks for responding Ironblade. I think the best route to take is to get a friend to help fill out the rosters with fillers and then add some more to the bases then give them away for Xmas.


Thanks to everyone for helping me make up my mind.

GAH!!!

Ok, so I really wish I had known about this earlier. It was the one Exploration Badge I didn't have for the past few years on Shadow. Oh well, Dream Team Ship Raids FTW!

Keep in mind that the prestige from the fillers goes away if the fillers go away. The first 15 members added will give 20K prestige each. But if you fall below 15 members total, each members departure subtracts 20K.

It depends on the server. I sold a 1 million prestige base and SG off for 20 million INF a couple of years back. I offered it on the server forums for that server (which I was moving off of) and took offers in "seal bids" via PMs.

If we go with that as a rough estimate, you'd get maybe 2-3 million tops. Probably less though.
