SendD Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 What's the deal with lower moonshine selling price rip off ? So I used one of the free mash benefit awards to create a moonshine. I chose the Spiced Island Moonshine which was valued at $225. It takes an hour to brew so I went and made a nuisance of myself around Valentine for a while then went back to the shack with 18 bottles out of the 20 made. I hung around the shack cleaning weapons and loading ammo etc to pass the last few minutes and got the notification that the batch was ready. But when I went to sell it the highest price buyer available was only $130 ?!? What the hell happened ? It's happened as well when I legitimately paid for a mash too.

The_Liquor Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 The buyers refreshed.... you can wait until the next refresh and hope for a better price again. Best to try and time your batches to finish before they refresh to avoid this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonTemplar Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Yes and the prices aren't guaranteed. Purely anecdotal and likely coincidence, but I have recently moved my shack from Cholla up to Heartlands, just for a change. Down in Cholla I was routinely getting prices over $200. In Heartlands I have only ever managed selling to that Bert chap for a meagre $147, so the bottom has rather dropped out of my operation. It actually matters not a jot to me - I'm like an Old West lottery winner, rich for life from my careers as a Collector and Trader - as I only do moonshining for the xp and the enjoyment. But given I have paid for all of the upgrades etc as a purely financial concern I can't say that Moonshining makes any sense. If I needed the money I'd stop moonshining immediately.

I've moved mine down to the Bayou site & prices are $206/$226 & $247 for the buyers - I've started leaving completed brews until the buyers refresh so I don't only get the 1 standby buyer & his low price - you might have more success down there - plus the roads aren't quite as hectic so with the "aiming autodrive" I can usually arrive with a decent 18/19 bottles intact 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might try my luck down in 'gator country. Thanks for the tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
