What's up my man (or ladies). My name's Erebos. I'm apart of a group of, shall we say, enterprising individuals that operate out of Beaumont Spire in Texas and I think I might have an interesting business opportunity for you if you're interested in that sort of thing.
See, I was passing through your particular area of space when I happened upon your modular station and noticed some of the wares you're selling there. Item's that we might be interested in buying at the Spire. Items of the alien variety, you dig? Way I see it is, we buy those items from you at a premium cost, and you pick up some Premium Scrap for a fair market rate. You make money, then we haul the items the rest of the way into New York and we make a profit too. Sounds fair, yeah? Everyone gets a little richer and we get to stick it to the man in the process. Wounds like a win-win to me.
Naturally, I'd have to clear any changes on our overhead costs with the boss, but provided we make something out of the deal, I think she'd be alright with whatever we come up with. Let me know, Junktown. I eagerly await your call.
I am pleased to meet you, I regret the delay in my reply as I don't currently have the best hardware for the job. I'm just using this refurbished older system at the moment. Things have been very hectic and I have been busy the last few days. We are always open to making deals with our trading partners, although our supply has been sporadic lately regarding the commodity I assume you are talking about. We are open to making a firm commitment to your supply needs depending on availability of product. I am interested in hearing more about these discount Premium scrap prices that you refer to. I'm sure that we can strike a deal!
It's a pretty simple deal really, nothing much to work out about the deal. We buy your items for 8,800 a unit and you buy our Scrap for 3,000 per unit and haul it back. You make money on your cargo and are able to stock up your location with Premium Scrap.
Standard 4,300 haul of [REDACTED] to Beaumont Spire at 8,800 a unit would net you 37,840,000SC. Picking up the scrap at a discounted rate would cost you 12,900,000SC netting you a total profit of 24,940,000SC.
From there, we would run the [REDACTED] the rest of the way to Manhattan, effectively taking much of the risk out of running that cargo and placing it into our hands. You make money, we make money, everyone wins!
Let me know what you think, interested to hear your thoughts.
After reading the details of your proposal, I would have to agree that it sounds like a fair deal and we will begin transporting the required materials onward to your station at the next opportunity! I thank you for your business and would like to invite you to meet in person some time. My base has a fully stocked bar and entertainers, not to mention the finest cigars in Sirius. Wishing you peace and prosperity,
"Junker Jim" Owens.
