Posted on May 11, 2012 Does it really take a full hour for the import markets to recap and recalibrate? I get home from work at about 1am central, and I am shut out of accomplishing anything because it takes a full hour to do its thing. What is it doing, consulting a Commodore-64 for advice?

Posted on May 12, 2012 An add on question: Why can you import some things and not others? Same question for exporting.

Posted on May 12, 2012 Brent, not a clue, sorry. I assume, as a beta, this is not running on the final production hardware.Andrew, it appears the more processed and removed from a raw state an item is, the more likely it is to be imported and at a reasonable price. The opposite seems true of the export market... |

Posted on May 12, 2012 Oh, it takes maybe 1 minute to do the update, I just assigned a full hour to it so in the start I can manually adjust any problems that come from it.As for exporting some and not others - I'll probably allow importing/exporting of everything eventually, just don't complain about the prices. |

Posted on May 12, 2012 Thats cool. It would make sense that you only made a minimal profit exporting something. Its kind of a last resort so to speak.

Posted on May 12, 2012 I think I've only made a profit once exporting something. I look upon it as a way to make your mistakes go away quickly and hopefully recover some small percentage of your investment...

Posted on May 12, 2012 Quality is a huge factor when exporting something. It becomes profitable around Q10, but minimally so.

Posted on May 13, 2012 I have always made money on the export market, just not enough to be worth while as a business avenue. As with Jim, I mainly use it as a way to recoup losses, unload excess crap, and quietly ship out the containers with the dead bodies. It occasionally gets in the way when I am trying to move something from one company to another at "wholesale." Lost 200k units of chemicals like that this morning. (Damned the torpedoes!)
