Code: Select all

MatA = $500 per run
MatB = $1000 per run
MatC - $1000 per run

SD Pistol: 250 A - $500 (1 run)
Shotgun: 500 B - $2000 (2 runs)
MP5: 250 C - $1000 (1 long run)
Rifle: 1000 A 500 C - $2000 + $2000 = $4000 (4 A runs, 2 C runs.)
AK47: A 500 C 1000 - $1000 + $4000 = $5000 (2 A runs, 4 C runs.)
M4: A 1000 C 1000 - $2000 + $4000 = $6000 (4 A runs, 4 C runs.)
SPAS: B 1250 C 1000 - $5000 + $4000 = $9000 (5 B runs, 4 C runs.)
Note that if an arms dealer sells to you at cost, he's doing mat runs for you for free, so you should NOT expect these prices on guns. I personally wouldn't sell a gun for less than double these prices, if I were an arms dealer, and people frequently buy materials for more than double.

If I were an arms dealer, my pricelist would be, minimum:
Shotgun: $4,000
MP5: $2,000
AK47: $10,000+
M4: $12,000+
SPAS12: $18,000+

Heavy weapons obviously should be marked up more than cheap guns because you have to have the materials on you, and you have to have leveled arms dealing up to level 5. If you're in a gang, consider requiring your members to contribute cash if they aren't materials running so you can buy materials to cover their asses.

Also, yes, materials runners are getting rich off of this system. Soon, hopefully, the drug dealer job will get an update that will allow them to make good money.

damn right

I am selling cheaper than your suggestion and there are people who still bitch about my prices

(shit.. it's been a long time i dont do A matruns, so I thought A mats were still $250 per run - $1 each mat... now i realize the reason why i am selling cheaper)

It's real difficult now to make good money as a gun dealer, or at least compared to a drug dealer. Whereas you just have to meet your customer at a drug house and make tons of cash in minutes, mat running takes lots of time and is very repetitive for a puny amount of mats gained in one run. Also your prices are absurd. Also please note that I am not whining about the new system and in fact I like it

Arms dealers make $1000 pretty easily off of 3 minutes work. Drug dealers make $200 per crack sold, and $20 per pot sold. If they can even find a buyer, for 59 pot (at max level) they make roughly $1,200. For crack, if they can find a buyer, for 59 crack they make $12,000, at a cost to the buyer of $59,000. Only people who aren't in gangs ever really buy drugs, also, so comparatively Arms Dealers make way more money.

Shotgun = 500 B Materials = $2000
