Yeah, this is more a matter of organization for me. I have what is now essentially a one-man base (I've even upgraded the plot!), but only have one enhancement table and that is nearly full. Some good stuff, but a lot of it is junk - standard IO an ex-SG mate made long ago, stuff I crafted years ago before I knew any better (Enfeebled Operations!), etc. I could stand to build a couple more and sort what I make.|

I am also finally getting into the practice of buying *stacks* of salvage. My latest 50 and my leveling toon both have near 1B, might as well actually use it. But yeah, I need to improve infrastructure to accommodate ramped-up production (which is actually why I needed a bigger plot to begin with - needed room for more salvage racks).
Suggestions:
Super Packs Done Right
Influence Sink: IO Level Mod/Recrafting
Random Merit Rolls: Scale cost by Toon Level
Organica, I am most intrigued by your posting your asking prices. It's a nice touch, and that way if someone here wants to buy it (to use OR to flip) they can.
On the other hand, now I can list mine at 1 inf cheaper than yours... j/k. Setting sell prices in this game is an art and one of the more entertaining aspects of the marketplace, imo.

Well, as I pointed out earlier I'm waiting about a day for stuff to sell before I post. Stuff that hasn't sold in a day is probably listed a bit high, so it'd be hard to flip.|

But one of the reasons I'm doing that is just to show how I list things for sale. As you said, setting prices is an art. Hopefully I'm doing a good job of it and a new player could learn something from what I post. (Or when I do a bad job of it -- they can also learn!)

Stupefy acc/stun/rech 7,000,001
Ending Money: 677,142,996
Ran: Freakshow Wars again
SOLD (By midnight):
Miracle +Recovery for 150 million
Gaussian's Synchronized Fire-Contrl rech/end reduction for 35 million
Stupefy acc/stun/rech for 12 million
Impervium Armor psionic resistance for 20 million
Money: 881,093,256 and Peddler badge 
Of note: My first Miracle +recovery was listed for 143 million and sold for 150 million, the price I wanted. But it took time to sell. This time there were a lot of previous sales in the 111 million to 120 million range, and without thinking too hard I listed for 101 million. Afterwards I realized that this was a very low listing -- but it still sold for 150 million, and very quickly too.
On the other hand, I listed my Gaussian's for 32.5 million hoping for a 50 million purchase (some were selling in that range) but instead someone bid carefully and got it for just slightly over my listing price.
Then again, my Stupefy was listed for 1 influence over 7 million and sold for 12 mil. And I bet some people wouldn't have even tried to sell that, but I checked and saw it was going for decent money. ^_^ Just goes to show though, you never know what people are going to bid.

Expedient Reinforcement resist bonus aura for pets for 7.5 million
Stupefy acc/stun/rech for 9 million
Money: 1,003,059,264 influence
So at this point I have hit a billion influence. I started with 50 million influence, and I've made 14 a-merit rolls total. I'll make another tonight at 10 PM, 2nd of the day. The stuff I still have for sale is listed for a combined 110 million influence.
So extrapolating a bit... 15 a-merits, halfway to one of the valuable PvP IOs, should net me about 1.2 billion. 30 merits should get me over 2 billion... but by how much?
I could have bout 7 LotG +7.5% recharges by now. Those are still selling for ~ 150 million crafted. 7 x 150 = 1050 million, but you'd have to subtract crafting and listing fees. I think I'm already ahead of that game.
Miracle +recovery's are selling for about the same. Numina's are only about 50 million for whatever reason.
A Gladiator's Armor +resistance to teleportation, +3% defense IO is 30 a-merits. Those are still selling off-market for well over 2 billion, I believe. More and more, I'm convinced that would be the way to go. Certainly it would be easier than all this crafting and listing every day.

This thread encouraged me to start crafting and selling my own, relatively lowbie gains (level 32 scrapper) from A-Merits as well (although I am running the Tips rather than purchasing them).|

My first round included 2 Oblits (actually the triple dropped from completing the Morality mission rather than the resulting a-merit which was nice), the Acc/Dam/Recharge and the quad, both early 30s (30 and 35 I think). Both listed on Monday for 10 and 15 million and both have now sold, for 20 and 25 million respectively.
Threw up a PBAOE Chance for Lethal damage last night so I'll see how that sells too.
Following this thread has been quite interesting so far, but with all that crafting I'd just as soon save up the 30 merits for the Glad proc.
So I did. I'm tempted to sell it, but the possibilities for my softcapped toons are too tempting to pass up.

I think one of the most intriguing things about this thread is that Organica has made over a billion Influence far before reaching the point of saving enough A-merits to purchase that Proc. Availability aside, it looks like a wash.

I spent most of the night writing. I'm waaaay behind for Nanowrimo this year... been playing too much and not writing enough. I decided to skip out on my Thursday "static team" group... having to play 2-3 hours a night 3 nights a week is a big part of my problem. So I spent most of the night writing instead. I'm now at 13,055 words, so I probably have no hope of getting to 50,000 words by the end of the month, unless I can manage a few 5,00 word nights or something.

I drove up to my credit union in Kent (I don't have direct deposit) and while the roads where I live were wet, in Kent there was snow everywhere and the roads were sheets of ice, and snow was still coming down, and cars were stuck everywhere... it took me over an hour to get to my bank, usually it's a 15 minute trip, and when I got there they'd closed. I dropped my check in the night deposit box and spent an hour driving back home through snow. No hami raid for you!
On the other side I'm at 30,500 words written for Nanowrimo, so I'm doing very well atm on that front . ^_^
