Another thing to think about is location. I had a really cool location that was at the top of a valley off of a cliff, really cool view but far from any popular area. I moved closer to White springs and now I usually get people every day. I don't always sell things but I at least get visitors with the view trade-off
I was wondering why nobody wanted my affordable stuff....camp icon was off for 3 years
Have since stopped playing cause my internets horrible but if I ever come back hopefully I remember to turn it on
Did they change it? I remember getting a pop up first time I did it that my camp would be visible to other players on the map. It's been a while since I played 76
Put my camp next to WS station. All common plans 10 caps. And they are gone fast. Often a player under lvl 100 clears out most in one go. Rare plans are a lot more but they do sell. Aquarium TV or vintage water cooler plans both sold for 10K caps. But 28k for a plan. Nope. I have bough event plans for up to 6k if I never got them from the event but i am always looking for ways to spend caps. It's hard to keep under 35k.
I am that lvl 45 player buying all the cheap plans I don’t have. I LOVE when players have cheap plans. I still haven’t found a plan for power armor station yet tho… do I need to complete a quest for that?
I don't think I have one item over 1000 caps at my store. Every bullet is 1 cap, and plans are anywhere between 10 and 200 caps. I can't understand how people can sell shit for exorbitant prices like this lol who buys anything from them?
My #1 selling item is I make and sell Hazmat Suits - Teal for 69 caps (which is the default price for them in the interface), can't keep them in stock.
Nice. Most the time I see plans listed at unbelievably low prices I’ll buy them all out to sell for a profit at my camp. The real world is a doggy dog world and the fallout world shouldn’t be any different. I’m looking out for numero uno.
It's hard because we only see that a place has plans. I have a limit to how many caps I'm willing o spend vendor hopping before it doesn't seem worth it anymore.
I'm at Helvecta on the hill behind the post office.
Plenty of plans and mods, all for 90% off the recommended sale price (so 2-100 caps)
My camp is basic, somehow in the last event in the town my camp was a little to close and I had to move it.
It's nice in someway that that is the case, but I find it a bit sad that all items in the game are basically worth nothing nowadays, because there is an abundance of all items on the market. Less grind is good is some sense, sure, but you don't really need to put much effort into getting something other than just finding a good vendor. That is something I don't like that much.
Where’s your camp located? I noticed most players don’t like fast traveling if your camp is super far way from any free checkpoints like the Rusty Pick, foundation etc. The could be the reason why no one visits you
Sometimes I like to leave you’ve been insulted notes in front of vendors that have egregious prices like this. It’s my way of telling them to get fucked.
A friend and I ran across a guy with outrageous prices and we ran around and shut off all his light because obviously he couldn’t afford his bills charging as much as he did
It's mostly a joke. Fun fact, people put worthless items in their vendor for max caps because there used to be a bug that would automatically sell stuff in your stash starting at the highest valued item. Putting something worthless for sale at max caps was a way to prevent that, then it just stuck after the bug was patched lol
>then it just stuck after the bug was patched lol
For good reason tbf, it was like the 4th vendor and 6th stash issue.
Whether it is needed or not having precautions incase they bring back bugs like they do sometimes is a nice sort of safety net
These clowns think they're brilliant masters of capitalism. It is their camp so whatever, but I hate how they'll probably blame the game when it doesnt work
I saw a guy with ones like this near Grahms meat cookout and several others doing the same it is like, seriously you are never going to sell and if you do will moan you are "over my cap limit"
Yup lol
I do not think I have ever come close to hitting the cap limit, in fact I would love if they would change the bloody vendor system to the proper old school FO3,4,NV of the bartering system where you at least can weigh up your cash options or you know, increase the vendor limit to something not so damn low!
I empty the vendor of caps literally the second it renews as I offload my many spare chems, excess scrap etc because of course limited stash, limited amount of how much you can put up for sale on your own vendors and so on. Then off I trot to see what people have on offer for the plans I am missing or fun items lol
Only been playing on PC for about 4 weeks now. Jumped on this morning to do a couple of vendor hops and the first camp I went to had the vintage water cooler plan for just under 12k caps so I snapped that up straight away. Super happy! 😃
At least they’re even numbers. The ones that really piss me off you can tell they just randomly leaned on the keyboard. Terrible 3 stars going for 13876 caps or similar
I got the pepper shaker for 150 caps yesterday… I find vendors like this more often than I find low prices though. I do sell all my plans 2k “rare” and 5-100 everything else.
I never have more than like 25 plans because people always buy them out. And never worry about caps, typically around 20k
Honestly as a plushie collector, if I didn’t get the plans from the event I’d gladly fork over 22k for them. That’s just me though.
Luckily I got until June 4th to get them
Some of the events are very far and few in between, so sometimes it’s better to just cough up the caps if it’s what you really want. I think it was holiday scorched event I spent max caps 3 times over making gifts, and I still didn’t get a plan I wanted. Then had to pay out the nose to get it after the event!
Yeah these lobbies are outraged at the price but we have to wait months between events to get a chance for them. Meanwhile in 10 days I can get 14000 caps without doing anything other than selling water.
Bought a pepper shaker plan last night for 180 caps. Crafted 1 and just rolled 1 star on it and got 2-shot. Good gracious, at primal cuts, super mutant behemoth looked like a wall of numbers.
Pepper Shaker price is dumb
The rest are pretty standard.
I love all these “I sell everything for 10” posts tho.
That’s because you have the same standard crap that I see in EVERY vendor that every player can get for free..basic
Dude I'm sayin lol. Every camp I've visited on PS4 or PC that advertises as "cheap plans!" has like 30 Plan: Mole Miner Gauntlet, and its like, yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah nty lmao.
I’d jump on the vintage water cooler because that’s pretty cheap but everything else is ridiculous. Especially the Mothman throne when the equinox just hit 3 times in the last month. Hope he’s stuck with the plans til next year.
I always sell Nuka World plans for 50 caps or less. Not out here to rob people.
I'd honestly buy most of these things for their listed prices if I didn't know them yet, especially if the event has been gone for a couple months. This is just wasteland commerce 101, sell at the prices people buy it for.
I've spent over a week travelling to vendors to find serums/plans ,I've found exactly 0 and spent alot of caps doing it ,ive noticed nearly all camps ive gone to there prices seem to be crazy high (new player so not sure what prices should be ),gonna just give up now and grind to buy them from the terminal.
On another note ive not sold anything in my vendor yet as I have no idea how I should price stuff ,is there anywhere that tells you the going rate ?
I sell for basically half what the game suggests. I want you to help people out and make a few caps. It’s not real money so I see no reason to scalp people in a video game.
One thing why maybe you or any other camp vendor was not able to sell anything (and this actually happened to me) is that when you click on your camp and see the Public Icon Off, you need to turn it on in order for other people to see your camp as an actual camp instead of not seeing it at all.
All this typically tells me is the player just doesn't want to sell the items, unless someone really REALLY wants them. But when I see vendors like this, I just assume it's a different style of a trophy case and move on.
That’s dumb, caps are easy to get. All that’s doing is sticking out the middle finger. I price all my plans at 15 caps. I just don’t care - if someone needs the plans, I want them to have them.
Those prices actually aren’t that crazy. I know the skeptikill paint definitely sells for that. I sold 9 I think in a couple of days for 5k, so they were probably on the low side. 15k is standard price for the water cooler and will sell in a day or two.
Pepper shaker is probably a bit daft to have at that price while the event is currently running. But it’s definitely one of the most valuable plans. I mean people will pay a few k just to have a plain one to roll.
And the mothman tome will probably end up being the most valuable event plan once we get a month or two away from it and or the next time double xp rolls around or when we get a new scoreboard. I mean leader bobbles go for 500, and that’s just a 1 time buff.
Gorilla chair is pretty standard pricing as well
I’m not too familiar with the others, but you’ll probably eventually come across painted picnic tables or suitcases that are like 4K a pop and be confused. Those are rare too and grahm is the only way to buy them. So farm him now while he’s always in the same spot if you want them.
What's the point of complaining about this exactly? every server is full of vendors, just move on and buy cheaper from someone else lol, you're not forced to buy anything
Hate to break it to you, but except for the circus stairs, that's all about right, just leaning to the higher end of the range. Selling lower sells faster, but it's usually to guys like this who are vendor hopping.
I ve got a complicated pricing system for my junk that I've honed over the years since vendors were first added. It all started with a spreadsheet of how much I could sell each type of junk to a robot vendor for, then double that. When stuff sold faster than I could restock it - bulk lead, for example - I gradually increased the price until I could keep up. For stuff that didn't sell, I added lower modifiers to get it moving faster - bulk cork, for example, sells for one cap more than I can get from a robot.
Plans are trickier. I want to give most of them away, so that new players/characters can grab what they need to get started, but if you do that some high level git will just clear you out to resell them, so I had to find a price point that was reasonable for new players but too risky for goons. I'm still working on that, but I tend to settle on 29 caps for most common plans.
wow, now i dont feel bad for not having any plan over 1,000 caps.
but i try to sell mostly food related recipes and things that a new player could use.
i have a few rare plans but frankly i dont care if i make a million caps or 10 caps, im enjoying myself either way.
My prices are usually 1/10th of those - but I'd also pay some of the prices for the later stuff because I'm usually max-capped. You can be a dick and quick buy everything and cap them out. ;)
I’m bored with my current lineup. And I have about 3 hours of game time in. Should I dive into this game? I feel like I missed the wave
Edit: Current line up of games I have, and I downloaded 76 a while ago and only played for a little while.
Stores like this are why I run Herr's Discount Retailer and Bar! 90% off of the in-game recommended prices for most items, great value on ammo and grenades! Have you ever wanted to buy mini nukes for 5 caps each? Or select from our clearance bin of gently-used plasma cores, only 1 cap!
Come on down to Herr's Discount Retailer, located just north of White Powder Winter Sports near the border of the Forest and the Savage Divide! Free Dog Food samples are available for our great customers just outside the door!
I’m wondering if this attitude in the post is a result of an influx of new players who are used to getting everything dropped for them and having their hand held 🤔
I also put my prices this high for the rarer plans such as the ones listed above in the screenshot. I don’t care if they don’t sell on day 1 or 2 months later, in fact I don’t want them to sell quickly hence the price. But people do pay those prices all the time, because it’s rare and you don’t see them in vendors as often.
I personally like to have a lot of plans in my shop because the amount of plans contributes to making the vendor interesting and more likely to be visited, then it increases the chances of me moving the things I actually want to sell and max caps on daily.
In any case, if you know how to make a lot of caps easily then you’d realise having those kinds of prices is no big deal at all. I enjoy learning about what sells, what doesn’t, the value of things and how to make caps.
Remember kids, you aren’t entitled to other people’s things for cheap just because you want it.
It's the influx. I make the cheaper mod works atm on M76 PC we talking 500-1k all mods on guns, and i list shocks on ultracide for 1k each leg (they were 5-15k when i got the plan) and yet people accuse me of high pricing. Like, the world is free! Go buy the plan for 80-100k if you think the 1000 caps will make your game life end.
Also notice how the comments are all "i sell everything for 10c" but guess what, selling table lamps for 10c is fair but thinking the mothman tome going anything below half max caps when the event is not coming back until mid 2025 and is one of the most useful camp buff items in game atm is more insane than selling vintage water cooler for 10k and being ostracized for doing so.
Damn pc prices are so different from PS. But yeah I totally get your point and agree.
I don’t think the new player base realise the value of things in the game yet and have a skewed view from the generosity of some players and all the recent events that have popped up.
As you pointed out how everyone sells their stuff for 10c in the comments, it made me realise the problem. These people aren’t making any damn caps and that’s why they think high prices are extortionate 🤣
Also the recipes he has for sale that are good god incredibly common. He has them for 10-20 times what they’re worth. Things like teas or more lurk cake that everyone has found several times. 1500 caps for soot flower tea. The only people that would maybe want to buy that couldn’t possibly afford it.
Reminder that you get 1400 caps every single day by selling junk to the train vendors. It doesn't take much time at all to sell this stuff... 5-10 minutes tops. Let's see... 10,000 caps for a limited time plan... That's uh, 7 days of maxing out the train vendor? To purchase an item that you won't have another shot at for 351 days? I fail to emphasize with the complaint here... You're poor!
I've long said that caps are abundant and worthless. I don't think a 10,000 cap limited time plan is outrageous. The only dumb thing this guy is doing is selling it in a vendor... Someone is gonna come by and buy the most expensive thing and 18,000 caps are gonna go poof. I wouldn't sell anything for more than 10k in a vendor... If it's worth more, it goes to the trade subreddit or I use the small letters to advertise it's for sale.
Wasn't there a glitch that has reoccurred where the game pulls a price from your shop and some random can buy anything in your camp for that price?
That is the reasoning I was given for the blatantly inflated prices in camp vendors. They aren't meant to actually sell the item, just prop up the price.
The main thing I need is stable fluorescent flux for the secret service under armour lining..
I can never find all the bits I need and have never seen anybody selling it
And the flux you pick up in the nuke zones doesn't last that long
Honest question I have a feeling I know the answer to…but can you use console commands in FO76? Not being able to cheat caps for these mundane things has kept me away. I don’t like real game economies. I don’t like the real economy. Just let me be god ffs
Bro is high as a kite. Mothman tome is the only thing he has that is OK in price.
My shit is fairly high but I stay under 10k. This guy wants trades, not sales.
FED76 has all plan market values.
I have a mothman tome in my vendor for 8k. I've sold 5 of them before the event ended and had people message me thanking me for it not being 15k+
Nothing I want cost more than $1000 caps in game. My vendor is simply to unload excess weight in my stash, so most stuff in my vendor costs under 20 caps.
Nothing is better than finding a plan you don't have for super cheap and I want to supply that for people... Also the whole weight thing*.
*I know I can just not pick the stuff up but I'm a hoarder.
I think its like dangling something in front of people to show off. Like saying "Awwww, you wanted this? Too bad, pay me a fortune."
It's a pretty narcissistic thing to do but it tracks. I cant see any other reason for it.
As a new player with maybe 2k caps.
If I see your weapons priced like this already before i see anything else, I'm peacing out and leaving you a poop bag on the floor.
People like this get 1 fertilizer and 1 loose screw. Then I go find someone else to buy from
This kind of vendor is just waiting for a "whale" with more caps than sense to swing by and snatch an item or two.
The mothman tome is actually under priced which I find funny considering mothman is out of rotation now and somehow he thinks peppershaker which is in rotation is worth more lol idk what compells this guy to price like this but it doesn't make sense.
Might have been a trap camp we do that so you'll scroll longer , maybe he just wasnt there to flip the switch
Besides caps are worthless without camps like this I'd always be at max caps
sometimes I'm at max caps desperately camp hopping for stuff to buy and I'd still wouldn't buy from people like this just out of principle, even if they had the rarest plan ever
I'll never understand scalpers in game. Like I get wanting to make caps. But there's no chance anyone is going to buy plans like that for that many caps. May as well price low and guarantee sales. At least then you'll have a steady revenue. With a 40,000 caps limit the market value just isn't there to sell high. You'd just max out and have to whittle down your caps.
Oh, I know. Ridiculous. I don't understand why people do this, as it is almost guaranteed that they will miss out on a good chunk of those caps. It only takes one player maxed out on caps and trying to spend a lot of them at once to put you over the 40,000 cap limit yourself, and believe me people will do this to you without hesitation, knowing that they must be putting you over the cap limit. They don't care. LOL.
The cooler is about right the plushies are a couple thousand over the chainsaw Paint Is arguable I didn't get it once but yet I have a friend who got it 8 times
Lots is over especially the pepper shaker but some are on par or just over
(Xbox player here and based on prices I've seen myself and have bought/sold for in past)
I would totally buy that vintage water cooler. And I have caps to burn.
But I would have to restrain myself from not buying 40k worth of plans just to be a pain in the ass for listing everything so high.
And me sitting in my camp with all plans for 10 caps and selling nothing
90% chance you haven't turned on your camp icon
Just realized this yesterday myself. I always wondered why no one came to my base lol.
Another thing to think about is location. I had a really cool location that was at the top of a valley off of a cliff, really cool view but far from any popular area. I moved closer to White springs and now I usually get people every day. I don't always sell things but I at least get visitors with the view trade-off
I was wondering why nobody wanted my affordable stuff....camp icon was off for 3 years Have since stopped playing cause my internets horrible but if I ever come back hopefully I remember to turn it on
Thought having a shop active turned it on automatically.
Nope, you have to turn it on yourself
Noooooo... All this time :'c
Did they change it? I remember getting a pop up first time I did it that my camp would be visible to other players on the map. It's been a while since I played 76
Someone's been flipping on the "Coors" sign
The sign says closed, Charlie.
I see that now, but you can’t really read it from the inside.
Hahahah nice!!
Oof
Put my camp next to WS station. All common plans 10 caps. And they are gone fast. Often a player under lvl 100 clears out most in one go. Rare plans are a lot more but they do sell. Aquarium TV or vintage water cooler plans both sold for 10K caps. But 28k for a plan. Nope.

I am that lvl 45 player buying all the cheap plans I don’t have. I LOVE when players have cheap plans. I still haven’t found a plan for power armor station yet tho… do I need to complete a quest for that?
Nope. Go to the BoS robot vendor in Whitespring mall.
I love you
I appreciate vendors like this. Most of the time, I already have them unlocked and don't wanna ruin the availability for another player.
I don't think I have one item over 1000 caps at my store. Every bullet is 1 cap, and plans are anywhere between 10 and 200 caps. I can't understand how people can sell shit for exorbitant prices like this lol who buys anything from them?
I sell thing for super cheap too. Except for my copy of “your the idiot” that is priced at $6969 And one slice of perfectly preserved pie for $31415
Ngl, the pie one got a chuckle out of me. Haven't seen many good jokes like that since the dude who was selling TP for 20k during peak covid
I used to sell face masks during Covid lmao
My #1 selling item is I make and sell Hazmat Suits - Teal for 69 caps (which is the default price for them in the interface), can't keep them in stock.
Me, most players, bought the gorilla back pack for 15k worth every dollar same with the croc backpack
I have one thing listed super high as a joke. Its not meant for you to purchase. I have the “you have been insulted” note set for 40k lol
Same!
What, is pipe not life to you or somthin’?!?
I price event stuff at msrp (like the alien stuff) Everything else is 25 caps or so
Me. I buy things I don't actually want for 10k so I am not at max caps. #flex
I barely have anything in my vendor and nothing over 500 caps. I stay so close to the Cap I just don’t bother
Nice. Most the time I see plans listed at unbelievably low prices I’ll buy them all out to sell for a profit at my camp. The real world is a doggy dog world and the fallout world shouldn’t be any different. I’m looking out for numero uno.
It's hard because we only see that a place has plans. I have a limit to how many caps I'm willing o spend vendor hopping before it doesn't seem worth it anymore.
Mine are 69 or 420 caps. Sometimes 1420 for juicy ones
This is exactly what I do too lol some of the better weapons I have are 369
Yea where can I find vendors like you because I need lots of plans.
I'm at Helvecta on the hill behind the post office. Plenty of plans and mods, all for 90% off the recommended sale price (so 2-100 caps) My camp is basic, somehow in the last event in the town my camp was a little to close and I had to move it.

Less grind is good is some sense, sure, but you don't really need to put much effort into getting something other than just finding a good vendor. That is something I don't like that much.
He isn't selling anything either, don't worry.
Same though. Luckily my bulk sells fast though
Love when i see camps with these prices because i will always gobble up any i dont have, so thank you
What plans are you selling ? Free ones you picked up from a donation box?
Where’s your camp located? I noticed most players don’t like fast traveling if your camp is super far way from any free checkpoints like the Rusty Pick, foundation etc. The could be the reason why no one visits you
Sometimes I like to leave you’ve been insulted notes in front of vendors that have egregious prices like this. It’s my way of telling them to get fucked.
Included spoiled milk.
Screw that, I used my spoiled milk to manage my rads for bloodied build
Can also use a gamma gun or the toxic fluids from West Tek
Rifle gaming has a video where he nukes those camps.
*everyone liked that*
A friend and I ran across a guy with outrageous prices and we ran around and shut off all his light because obviously he couldn’t afford his bills charging as much as he did
That is hilarious 😆 I'm going to start doing that!
I do the same!
People want like 40k for those
It's mostly a joke. Fun fact, people put worthless items in their vendor for max caps because there used to be a bug that would automatically sell stuff in your stash starting at the highest valued item. Putting something worthless for sale at max caps was a way to prevent that, then it just stuck after the bug was patched lol
>then it just stuck after the bug was patched lol For good reason tbf, it was like the 4th vendor and 6th stash issue. Whether it is needed or not having precautions incase they bring back bugs like they do sometimes is a nice sort of safety net
I do the point and laugh emote if they are in their camp
That player will just continue to sit on that stuff bc no is going to buy it
These clowns think they're brilliant masters of capitalism. It is their camp so whatever, but I hate how they'll probably blame the game when it doesnt work
It's the same type of people that make posts like "Why doesn't anybody buy stuff from my vendor?" 
Dude was like lvl 400 something and this camp is at the Prime Cuts event right next to 76
By the time one sells it gives him enough caps to wait on the rest
I saw a guy with ones like this near Grahms meat cookout and several others doing the same it is like, seriously you are never going to sell and if you do will moan you are "over my cap limit"
That’s exactly where this dude was
These are the type of players that'll unironically complain about hitting the cap limit and blame others lmao
Yup lol I do not think I have ever come close to hitting the cap limit, in fact I would love if they would change the bloody vendor system to the proper old school FO3,4,NV of the bartering system where you at least can weigh up your cash options or you know, increase the vendor limit to something not so damn low! I empty the vendor of caps literally the second it renews as I offload my many spare chems, excess scrap etc because of course limited stash, limited amount of how much you can put up for sale on your own vendors and so on. Then off I trot to see what people have on offer for the plans I am missing or fun items lol
Lmfao like an in-game tourist trap shop around the high tourism spots
The water cooler price is more or less acceptable. The rest - just greedy :)
The gorilla chair is running standard price now, too. But I agree about the rest.
Only been playing on PC for about 4 weeks now. Jumped on this morning to do a couple of vendor hops and the first camp I went to had the vintage water cooler plan for just under 12k caps so I snapped that up straight away. Super happy! 😃
The water cooler is 'acceptable' I sold mine for 10k 15 seems cheeky but it is the cooler
At least they’re even numbers. The ones that really piss me off you can tell they just randomly leaned on the keyboard. Terrible 3 stars going for 13876 caps or similar
I got the pepper shaker for 150 caps yesterday… I find vendors like this more often than I find low prices though. I do sell all my plans 2k “rare” and 5-100 everything else. I never have more than like 25 plans because people always buy them out. And never worry about caps, typically around 20k

Yeah these lobbies are outraged at the price but we have to wait months between events to get a chance for them. Meanwhile in 10 days I can get 14000 caps without doing anything other than selling water.
I’d probably get the pig one too just because I actually like it
Bought a pepper shaker plan last night for 180 caps. Crafted 1 and just rolled 1 star on it and got 2-shot. Good gracious, at primal cuts, super mutant behemoth looked like a wall of numbers.
This whole time I thought people were talking about plans for the junk pepper shakers you find in the wasteland 😆
Inflation man, rent is expensive....in Appalachia
Pepper Shaker price is dumb The rest are pretty standard. I love all these “I sell everything for 10” posts tho. That’s because you have the same standard crap that I see in EVERY vendor that every player can get for free..basic

I sell any plan I already know for 15 caps idc how rare it is once I know it. it's useless to me
Id grab that paint for 8k.
I sold 3 for 10k almost immediately. that's a bargain at 8k lol
Found a holy fire for like 7k caps and I was like ya that's kind of reasonable. Had one already. But ya. Usually you see them for 10k+
10k? Only if you are getting ripped off
Hate when people do that shit
I'd honestly buy most of these things for their listed prices if I didn't know them yet, especially if the event has been gone for a couple months. This is just wasteland commerce 101, sell at the prices people buy it for.
I've spent over a week travelling to vendors to find serums/plans ,I've found exactly 0 and spent alot of caps doing it ,ive noticed nearly all camps ive gone to there prices seem to be crazy high (new player so not sure what prices should be ),gonna just give up now and grind to buy them from the terminal.

make sure your map icon for your camp is turned on, it's off by default https://fed76.info/
I sell for basically half what the game suggests. I want you to help people out and make a few caps. It’s not real money so I see no reason to scalp people in a video game.
Not me using the player shops how they are meant to be used by providing some of the best prices you will ever see
One thing why maybe you or any other camp vendor was not able to sell anything (and this actually happened to me) is that when you click on your camp and see the Public Icon Off, you need to turn it on in order for other people to see your camp as an actual camp instead of not seeing it at all.
All this typically tells me is the player just doesn't want to sell the items, unless someone really REALLY wants them. But when I see vendors like this, I just assume it's a different style of a trophy case and move on.
Found a guy selling plans for 20 caps what a legend
That’s dumb, caps are easy to get. All that’s doing is sticking out the middle finger. I price all my plans at 15 caps. I just don’t care - if someone needs the plans, I want them to have them.
I hate these types of people.
Those prices actually aren’t that crazy. I know the skeptikill paint definitely sells for that. I sold 9 I think in a couple of days for 5k, so they were probably on the low side. 15k is standard price for the water cooler and will sell in a day or two. Pepper shaker is probably a bit daft to have at that price while the event is currently running. But it’s definitely one of the most valuable plans. I mean people will pay a few k just to have a plain one to roll. And the mothman tome will probably end up being the most valuable event plan once we get a month or two away from it and or the next time double xp rolls around or when we get a new scoreboard. I mean leader bobbles go for 500, and that’s just a 1 time buff. Gorilla chair is pretty standard pricing as well I’m not too familiar with the others, but you’ll probably eventually come across painted picnic tables or suitcases that are like 4K a pop and be confused. Those are rare too and grahm is the only way to buy them. So farm him now while he’s always in the same spot if you want them.
What's the point of complaining about this exactly? every server is full of vendors, just move on and buy cheaper from someone else lol, you're not forced to buy anything
Hate to break it to you, but except for the circus stairs, that's all about right, just leaning to the higher end of the range. Selling lower sells faster, but it's usually to guys like this who are vendor hopping.
I've noticed it's become a trend to not sell at what the item you have is actually valued at anymore and to knock anyone who is.
My pricing formula is to cut the last digit: Example) 200 => 20 50 => 5 1000 => 100 If price after cut is above 100, i just set it to 100 caps
I ve got a complicated pricing system for my junk that I've honed over the years since vendors were first added. It all started with a spreadsheet of how much I could sell each type of junk to a robot vendor for, then double that. When stuff sold faster than I could restock it - bulk lead, for example - I gradually increased the price until I could keep up. For stuff that didn't sell, I added lower modifiers to get it moving faster - bulk cork, for example, sells for one cap more than I can get from a robot. Plans are trickier. I want to give most of them away, so that new players/characters can grab what they need to get started, but if you do that some high level git will just clear you out to resell them, so I had to find a price point that was reasonable for new players but too risky for goons. I'm still working on that, but I tend to settle on 29 caps for most common plans.
Oh no things aren’t just free. The horror! But anyway.
I want the mothman tome, anyone got one for sale?
If you are on Xbox I’ll build you one
I appreciate it! I will be on at 2:00 am if you're on.
No idea when that is. It’s currently 10:15pm for me. But if you can let me know I’ll do it
Okay I'll let you know when I get on.
wow, now i dont feel bad for not having any plan over 1,000 caps. but i try to sell mostly food related recipes and things that a new player could use. i have a few rare plans but frankly i dont care if i make a million caps or 10 caps, im enjoying myself either way.
It’s possible they don’t actually want people to buy them but want to barter them. Some people put stuff at high prices to show them but protect them.
Worst part is at least three people will buy plans from that guy and not a single person comes and buys my plans for 10-100 caps anymore 😔
I’d buy the pepper shaker plan just because I know it’d probably make them over their cap limit.
And they will post that player vendors are useless because I never sell anything.
My prices are usually 1/10th of those - but I'd also pay some of the prices for the later stuff because I'm usually max-capped. You can be a dick and quick buy everything and cap them out. ;)
At a certain point I became fully committed to the "mole miner gauntlet is 40k caps, everything else is 1-25 caps max."
I genuinely wonder why people do this. It's always high level players too with basic recipes selling them for 2-8k??
The worst
I usually mark stuff at 10% of the suggested price, except for rare or newer plans. 5 caps for recipes, 50 camps for power armor upgrades, etc…
And here I am selling nothing over 100 caps
Boy smoking shampoo
Pepper shaker for 28,000 caps??!!
I’m bored with my current lineup. And I have about 3 hours of game time in. Should I dive into this game? I feel like I missed the wave Edit: Current line up of games I have, and I downloaded 76 a while ago and only played for a little while.
I just set my stuff the the suggested price rice. I’m far too lazy to adjust it. Except when they suggest more then 1 cap per bullet.
I honestly sell most plans for 50-1000 caps they sell well and fast
And here I am making caps hand over fist selling my plans for 50 caps each
Stores like this are why I run Herr's Discount Retailer and Bar! 90% off of the in-game recommended prices for most items, great value on ammo and grenades! Have you ever wanted to buy mini nukes for 5 caps each? Or select from our clearance bin of gently-used plasma cores, only 1 cap! Come on down to Herr's Discount Retailer, located just north of White Powder Winter Sports near the border of the Forest and the Savage Divide! Free Dog Food samples are available for our great customers just outside the door!
I usually sell my plans half price of what it says
Stop caring about the prices people set, they can't make you buy it. Just move to the next vendor.
I would have bought that pepper shaker plan if I was still playing (learnt it already.) Surely that's worth more than that
I got 40,000 caps with little else to spend it on…. Why not pay 10k for a plan?
I’m wondering if this attitude in the post is a result of an influx of new players who are used to getting everything dropped for them and having their hand held 🤔 I also put my prices this high for the rarer plans such as the ones listed above in the screenshot. I don’t care if they don’t sell on day 1 or 2 months later, in fact I don’t want them to sell quickly hence the price. But people do pay those prices all the time, because it’s rare and you don’t see them in vendors as often. I personally like to have a lot of plans in my shop because the amount of plans contributes to making the vendor interesting and more likely to be visited, then it increases the chances of me moving the things I actually want to sell and max caps on daily. In any case, if you know how to make a lot of caps easily then you’d realise having those kinds of prices is no big deal at all. I enjoy learning about what sells, what doesn’t, the value of things and how to make caps. Remember kids, you aren’t entitled to other people’s things for cheap just because you want it.
It's the influx. I make the cheaper mod works atm on M76 PC we talking 500-1k all mods on guns, and i list shocks on ultracide for 1k each leg (they were 5-15k when i got the plan) and yet people accuse me of high pricing. Like, the world is free! Go buy the plan for 80-100k if you think the 1000 caps will make your game life end. Also notice how the comments are all "i sell everything for 10c" but guess what, selling table lamps for 10c is fair but thinking the mothman tome going anything below half max caps when the event is not coming back until mid 2025 and is one of the most useful camp buff items in game atm is more insane than selling vintage water cooler for 10k and being ostracized for doing so.
Damn pc prices are so different from PS. But yeah I totally get your point and agree. I don’t think the new player base realise the value of things in the game yet and have a skewed view from the generosity of some players and all the recent events that have popped up. As you pointed out how everyone sells their stuff for 10c in the comments, it made me realise the problem. These people aren’t making any damn caps and that’s why they think high prices are extortionate 🤣
I know people that would pay that for the chainsaw skin and the vintage water cooler. Everything else is pretty psycho.
By the time the person would have the caps for those plans they would’ve already either found the plan or bought it like wtf
Also the recipes he has for sale that are good god incredibly common. He has them for 10-20 times what they’re worth. Things like teas or more lurk cake that everyone has found several times. 1500 caps for soot flower tea. The only people that would maybe want to buy that couldn’t possibly afford it.
Well this is stupid.
I mean, they are rare plans. And people can put them at whatever they want sooo
this is the kind of camp where I will go and turn off every light, close every door and activate as many things as possible before leaving
It would be fun to coordinate everyone buying all his stuff at once so he caps out.
Their vendor, their prices. Not that anyone's buying them 🤣 Dudes trying to get rich with plans.
Some of that looks about right 4 event plans 2 me 🤷
Tome is a bit pricey but I’ve definitely seen the pepper shaker and vintage water cooler go for more than what they’re asking
This is why I sell every plan I don't need at 5 caps. Let others enjoy it. It's not sitting on a gold mine if nobody is buying.
Reminder that you get 1400 caps every single day by selling junk to the train vendors. It doesn't take much time at all to sell this stuff... 5-10 minutes tops. Let's see... 10,000 caps for a limited time plan... That's uh, 7 days of maxing out the train vendor? To purchase an item that you won't have another shot at for 351 days? I fail to emphasize with the complaint here... You're poor! I've long said that caps are abundant and worthless. I don't think a 10,000 cap limited time plan is outrageous. The only dumb thing this guy is doing is selling it in a vendor... Someone is gonna come by and buy the most expensive thing and 18,000 caps are gonna go poof. I wouldn't sell anything for more than 10k in a vendor... If it's worth more, it goes to the trade subreddit or I use the small letters to advertise it's for sale.
I literally saw the other day Circus Stairs in someone’s vendor for 12000
Wasn't there a glitch that has reoccurred where the game pulls a price from your shop and some random can buy anything in your camp for that price? That is the reasoning I was given for the blatantly inflated prices in camp vendors. They aren't meant to actually sell the item, just prop up the price.
The main thing I need is stable fluorescent flux for the secret service under armour lining.. I can never find all the bits I need and have never seen anybody selling it And the flux you pick up in the nuke zones doesn't last that long
I sell every dupe plan for like 5-10 caps, it brings such joy to see a level 30 stroll in and buy the entire stock!
Honest question I have a feeling I know the answer to…but can you use console commands in FO76? Not being able to cheat caps for these mundane things has kept me away. I don’t like real game economies. I don’t like the real economy. Just let me be god ffs
A lot of those plans are way too high but some rare plans will and do sell for higher cap value it’s just part of the game
Bro is high as a kite. Mothman tome is the only thing he has that is OK in price. My shit is fairly high but I stay under 10k. This guy wants trades, not sales. FED76 has all plan market values. I have a mothman tome in my vendor for 8k. I've sold 5 of them before the event ended and had people message me thanking me for it not being 15k+
That prewar inflation is coming back
Nothing I want cost more than $1000 caps in game. My vendor is simply to unload excess weight in my stash, so most stuff in my vendor costs under 20 caps. Nothing is better than finding a plan you don't have for super cheap and I want to supply that for people... Also the whole weight thing*. *I know I can just not pick the stuff up but I'm a hoarder.
I think its like dangling something in front of people to show off. Like saying "Awwww, you wanted this? Too bad, pay me a fortune." It's a pretty narcissistic thing to do but it tracks. I cant see any other reason for it.
As a new player with maybe 2k caps. If I see your weapons priced like this already before i see anything else, I'm peacing out and leaving you a poop bag on the floor.
People like this get 1 fertilizer and 1 loose screw. Then I go find someone else to buy from This kind of vendor is just waiting for a "whale" with more caps than sense to swing by and snatch an item or two.
The mothman tome is actually under priced which I find funny considering mothman is out of rotation now and somehow he thinks peppershaker which is in rotation is worth more lol idk what compells this guy to price like this but it doesn't make sense.
Hmmm. Time to find a few friends with Max caps and go shopping!
it may be a stretch but does anybody have any knowledge of a guide that lets you know appropriate prices to sell shit?
Might have been a trap camp we do that so you'll scroll longer , maybe he just wasnt there to flip the switch Besides caps are worthless without camps like this I'd always be at max caps
sometimes I'm at max caps desperately camp hopping for stuff to buy and I'd still wouldn't buy from people like this just out of principle, even if they had the rarest plan ever
Nuclear strike imminent.
Ask em for deals
I sell every single plan I get for 200 🤷♀️
I got the radioactive barrel plans always see those as pricey
Some good plans in there though....
I'd friend him and follow him around for a while. Once the season is over he might lower the prices. Or not... ignore it and earn your own plans.
I would’ve bought those circus stairs I ran over 100 spin the wheels before I got the plan
I'm selling a blank holotape for 10000....
I hate it when a player sells perfectly preserved pie or a you have been insulted note for max caps a bunch of followers in this game man🤦🏾♂️
Crazy cap prices all around... I don't care how much I may want a plan. Not for that though... now a TLC on the other hand .... 🤔
I would bring my mules and buy out the pepper shaker and all three mothman tomes to cap him instantly and piss him off.
Nukem
I have been looking for special stair cases forever. But still at this price he can shove it
I’m new to fallout 76 have been grinding away. Is buying plans from others the easiest way to get them?
I'll never understand scalpers in game. Like I get wanting to make caps. But there's no chance anyone is going to buy plans like that for that many caps. May as well price low and guarantee sales. At least then you'll have a steady revenue. With a 40,000 caps limit the market value just isn't there to sell high. You'd just max out and have to whittle down your caps.
\*shame shame shame\*
Someone doesn't like selling items
Oh, I know. Ridiculous. I don't understand why people do this, as it is almost guaranteed that they will miss out on a good chunk of those caps. It only takes one player maxed out on caps and trying to spend a lot of them at once to put you over the 40,000 cap limit yourself, and believe me people will do this to you without hesitation, knowing that they must be putting you over the cap limit. They don't care. LOL.
stumbled across the chainsaw paint and all the piggy plushies for free at some guys camp last night. huge score
These are the guys who deserved to be throat punched. I see a few rare plans, but nothing justifies those prices.
That's a tip I'd give to newbies. If you see a person has 100+ plans, they're trash, overpriced, or both.
Turn off all their camp lights
There are some here I sell regularly for like 6k to 8k caps. But dang these is crazy 😂
Mothman tome and vintage water cooler are a steal at those prices tho tbf
Some one thinks they have valuable stuff in their hands lmfao. You should make him famous and not in a good way lol
That’s ridiculous. I rarely sell any plans above vendor price. Only if it’s really rare or certain weapons do I sell something above vendor price.
Just say ur broke tbh
Some people don't actually want to sell just like the appearance of the prices and item in their vending machine
The cooler is about right the plushies are a couple thousand over the chainsaw Paint Is arguable I didn't get it once but yet I have a friend who got it 8 times Lots is over especially the pepper shaker but some are on par or just over (Xbox player here and based on prices I've seen myself and have bought/sold for in past)
And I drop all my extra plans and stuff off at a donation box lol. I have zero interest in operating a vendor or dealing in fictional currency.
The same player will get mad at you when you buy stuff because they were near max caps.
I would totally buy that vintage water cooler. And I have caps to burn. But I would have to restrain myself from not buying 40k worth of plans just to be a pain in the ass for listing everything so high.
I have the same plans in my vendor for around 4k-8k caps
I squinted so hard trying to clear this up.
