I have a question about buying supplies for my corporations. Currently I have the strategy set to buy at 95 and increase it by 8. I checked into my corp and it seems that I am paying almost double the market price for everything the corp needs. My country is The Republic of Berlingo on WG. Any advise on this matter would be appreciated.

Here is an example. Sorry if it is not posted correctly. This is my first post.

Darrellelliott87,

'Market Price', is the base price, it doesn't factor in the quality of the goods. The price you pay does. That's why there is a large gap.

Generally speaking, I recommend using the 'best price' buying/sales strategy, because it is the most reliable.
