A good way to make money as a Junker? - Fab - 09-08-2013

Hi, I finally got a good reputation with junkers after a bribe, and got the CSV. I'm looking for a good way to make money. Also, I was a miner and got a bad reputation with daumann, kruger, etc. Even with the Liberty security force, I don't even know why.

Mine Premium Scrap in Pequena Negra, Texas (C3) and sell them at Sabah Shipyard, Coronado
Use a Salvager and you will make 10 Mill per run.
Your hearing from someone from .:j:.

.:j:. Congress would love to enlighten you on certain 'Junkerish' ways to make money.

However, There is currently an 'information bounty' on our routes, designed so that certain other factions can catch us smuggling trading with our knickers down, so, um, you won't hear it from us without a very real commitment.

Pretty sure there are some indies around who can clue in to their routes, however.
Good luck to you - and all Junkers!

*Speaking of which - Congress serves all junkers, so if your Junker runs into trouble, call one of us, we will come a' runnin' with crowbars and pipe-wrenches.

I just smuggle. Scrap mining is for chumps.

There are several places you can mine Premium Scrap which, while less profitable than some other ores, can still make you good creds. Sigma 13 has fields that are relatively close to good sell points.

Your ID is quasi-legal meaning you're able to transport goods for either side of the law or both. Keep in mind of course that you're not exempt from either side of that same law. You can be fined by lawfuls or pirated by outlaws just like everyone else.

The default suggestion is smuggling... but it's not particularly profitable as the mod stands. It's really more of a roleplay choice to move illicit cargo than doing so for profit. Don't get me wrong, you can make creds smuggling or blockade running but it's typically less profitable than legal trading or dealing with ores.

There's a market for interesting information. This is not an opportunity to metagame - or share info you read in a forum thread or witnessed in a Skype channel. If you get screen shots of interesting system chats while flying around or incriminating pics of ships carrying interesting cargo there's a market for it; if you can find a buyer.

If you want to be a junker pirate Kusari is your stomping grounds, but as with smuggling, it's more of a roleplay preference than moneymaker.

Junker pirating in the taus, sigmas, and Omegas is very profitable, as you can rob ore miners. But you'll need something more powerful than a CSV. A CSF, Collector, Recycler, Ptrans, Slave Liner, or Salvager with friends are all options.

You seem to be new so I doubt its for you yet, better to get a job working as a scout for a trader if all you have is a CSV ATM.
