Selling goods works just like purchasing goods, with the following changes:Ī character must find a buyer, instead of a supplier. After that week, he may reroll one of the dice thrown to determine the purchase price for those goods. The trader does not have to accept this price, but if he rejects the deal, then he cannot deal with that supplier again for at least one week. Next, consult the Purchase column of the Modified Price table. In cases where multiple Purchase or Sale DMs apply, use only the largest ones from each column.

Some goods are illegal, and can be purchased only through a black market supplier. If you roll the same type of goods multiple times, then the supplier has extra amounts of those goods available. Roll d66 on the table to determine the goods available, ignoring results 61-65 unless dealing with a black market supplier. The amount of each type of goods available is limited – the tons column determines how many tons of a given type of goods are available for purchase.Ī given supplier has all Common Goods available, the Trade Goods that match the world’s trade code, and 1d6 randomly determined goods. Trade Goods can usually only be found on a world with a matching trade code. Common Goods can be purchased on any world. Goods are divided into two categories of goods – Common and Trade Goods. Class A starports give a +6 DM, class B starports give a +4 DM and class C starports give a +2 DM. The size of the Starport provides a bonus to finding a supplier.
