    As the title says, I am going to be in a position, hopefully within the next month... maybe a bit longer, to consider buying a privateer should one be available at a reasonable price.
    I am not current with their going rates, but will continue to watch the selling threads to see if one catches my attention.
    If you have one you are thinking about selling, feel free to send me a PM. I'm not in a rush, and will be getting my funds arranged over the next month while I do some research.
    I am not overly interested in a package deal (Hangar, UL thruster and privateer) unless its for a price just way too good to pass up. The ship is all I really need.
    If you see a thread of someone selling one and I might have missed it, please give me a heads up here! or email me at xandercatman@start.ca
    Thanks in advance!

    I wish you the best with finding your Privateer Hon, and it was nice running into you at Dave's interview in the Quarry.

    Let me know when you want to start workin' on your space legs - the offer still stands.

    Catch up with you soon. :)

    Hi Zan

    Look from what I can see in recent sales, the cheapest SI500 Privateer ever sold was 32000Ped, and that was a quick sale. Most un-upgraded ones sit around the 40-45000Ped mark.
    The SI is a different matter. I have a thread somewhere in PCF that described the value for every total unit of 1000 SI. Being that if I recall it needed 200-300 Gold ingots for each 1000, so you get the idea that the bigger the SI, the more the invested in the ship. I estimated that I had put nearly 30000Ped worth of gold into my ship to get an SI of 62000 in total. So mine I would price around 65-70000Ped. I hope you find one as they make life a lot easier!

    This thread can now be closed - I purchased the Starfinder XIV this morning from my former mentor.
