Repair Prices

ppl that does give 1k+ is overrated, i mean come on how can you do that :| atleast 5k for a Grade 5 Dark Matter would be able to cover up, but i understand that you couldn't get money as good as any one then i think is ok but nevertheless netting 100k is pretty SUPER EASY. just kill, loot, sell. you'll bound to be able to get 100k very fast. i did that most of the time aside from selling stuff in the MW and i get my self rich for this past few months. is super easy ~_~ 1 month worth of 10-20mil achievable.

I started this kind of topic few days ago. Here http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ce-for-players

My recommendation

DM Grade 1 = 100 gil / Repair service = 200-500 gil
DM Grade 2 = 600 gil / Repair service = 1000-2000 gil
DM Grade 3 = 1500 gil / repair service = 2000-3000 gil
DM Grade 4 = 2800 gil / repair service = 3500-4000 gil
DM Grade 5 = 4500 gil / repair service = 6000-10000 gil

As I saw many people looking for fix these day, they usually put 5000 for grade 5.
But it still ok because we still got some sp as a reward for fix ( also, we don't lose anything to get that sp lol )

But some people still cheap out by putting 1000 for grade 5, and I saw them standing there without their equipment fixed lol.

I make a lot of money and I don't spend any of it outside of repairs. It's gotta go somewhere, since I'm not really into hoarding money for no purpose.

there is something called Equivalent Exchange with a proper kindness (tips). Like in the real world, you bought an item, let say $5, from there the cost of it is maybe $3 or $4. so the tips you handed out is for the service you give.

If you do not want to pay, then give the same material as payment. zzz

I dont know what a fair price is but certianly more than the cost of the grade of dark matter. Pay the crafter for her time she spent lvling the craft.

[Petdo]

Just leave those 1k-for-grade5-please-fix-me-gear standing there. Don't try to help them or they will set 1k price again.

This is MADNESS!

When I see people offering dark matter for repair or lower gil of the dark matter I just ignore. No profit no repair.

[Swev]

I just dont repair anyones gear anymore. I let them go buy some new gear instead lol

[TheVedis]

Im stingy when it comes to repairs
I want twice the cost of the dark matter or I probly wont touch it, its just not worth my time at this point.
of course i make plenty of exceptions to that to people i actualy know

My recommendation
DM Grade 1 = 100 gil / Repair service = 200-500 gil
DM Grade 2 = 600 gil / Repair service = 1000-2000 gil
DM Grade 3 = 1500 gil / repair service = 2000-3000 gil
DM Grade 4 = 2800 gil / repair service = 3500-4000 gil
DM Grade 5 = 4500 gil / repair service = 6000-10000 gil

That sounds pretty fair. ^^

To be honest, the closer the offer is to the upper end of that scale the more I'd be more willing to stop what I'm doing, change my class to whatever is necessary, and perform the repair (of course if it's a friend that needs repairs, I'd do it for free any day and any time).

Doing the work for a higher reward is not about being greedy or wanting gil.
It's about showing respect and appreciation for other players' time and energy.


If the repair offer is really low, I just figure the offer is for their LS members, and I move on.
