Talth uplifts to demand? If so, what would a reasonable price be?

Basically, if someone comes to me in the Dysos and shares a planet, rich or better, then leaves. I am willing to uplift it to 15MR for a cost. Once it reaches 15MR, I would send a forum PM, pull all defense, and allow it to be reclaimed. I would then obviously purge the planet.

Please contact me if interested, and terms can be reached.

Before people suggest scams or anything, I would like to remind you that I am a proud Dysonian, and would never do anything to tarnish their or my own name.

^ This will impact your sale price significantly as most people will pay more if you come to them.

In addition, though you can sell the uplift as a per use fee, generally it is easier to uplift a planet and then just sell the finished product.

Ideally I would prefer not to łose my own loyalty, but for an extra ICTY fee, I could probably be persuaded to travel and collect a planet. Uplifts I would be selling would be to the full 15MR. I find that this would be easier as I do not have the GP to abandon planets.

I should also add that I am not amazingly good for invading planets (think I'm 90% on def of about 6-7k), so an unoccupied or abandoned planet would be preferred! :)

Oh, and as a formality, I will brick the planet while uplifting (maybe sneak a 12 on there as a little temporary bonus if the planet is big enough :p ), but I obviously cannot guarantee the safety of the planet, and am not responsible if it is stolen while I am uplifting. I would, however, inform the owner of any theft immediately.

I think it would be expected that if you lost the planet. The person doesn't pay you.
I certainly would never pay someone. I'd also insist that the planet they are talthing stays well above 25k cloak and that they aren't going to be doing legion tours to places where my planets cloak would be low enough to be found.

Above conditions met along with them coming to me.
I would not pay more than 1000 ctp per talth ability used.
Probably closer to 700 per use since the time for your planet to finish is far too long.

All in all you are probably better off making planets and then selling them.
Get someone in your legion to alert very massive oceanics or anything wet massive with a decent starting arti and make then 15x then sell. You could try selling 15x terra/icy but that wouldn't pay as well as a vm 15x oceanic and would have fewer buyers.
Your legionmate has the planet on scan and a few invades later you don't need to abandon the planet.

Tree has actually put it quite well in terms of the approach. One additional suggestion - you might want to work on planets with documented effects already such as stealth screen. Even if a quasi or two is needed, this will likely have a better payoff for you in the long run as you develop them.
