A business idea - Rowly - 08-08-2009
ok basicaly i had the idea of making a courier service character that will transfer items between other player characters no questions asked. for example lets say you have a Liberty Navy character that is in possesion of a few codename weapons and you want to transfer them to a character in say the Kusari Navy, obviously your Liberty ship cannot just barge through to kusari space without ALOT of paperwork etc. and even then its a bit odd and a pain but with the service i am thinking of you do have the option of smuggleing it there for a fee. so i would like to know what people think i think it brings a bit of RP to smugglers rather than just fly to base A buy contraband A take to base B etc.

Nothing to stop you from trying, I'd just advise for you to insure your cargo because it its lost...

Its not that I'd need a smuggler because I wouldn't be welcome in those areas, its more like I'd be too lazy to go to them. For that reason, and if your fees were acceptable, I'd probably use a courier quite often if I had a way of contacting him when I needed him.

Yes, this is not a new idea, but I like it anyways. Seeing some couriers around, which face the danger of being pirated is some nice RP approach.

I'd use it too, and VHFs/Bombers are a pretty secure way of delivering Codes I believe.
Something that occurred to me as well is that you could, for a Code delivery, make some extra cash.
Lets say I want a pair of Ragnaroks, at 20mil a pair. We agree on a delivery charge of 2 mil, making my end 22mil.
Now, if you can secure those Rags cheaper, you keep the difference.

' Wrote:I'd use it too, and VHFs/Bombers are a pretty secure way of delivering Codes I believe.Try Light Fighters, like the Arrow for example. That would be better for a delivery service of small items. Nearly impossible to hit, when used by an experienced pilot.

Nice Idea.
I might even try it.
I would also perhaps... use your services.
However, Leviathan bankers already does this.

I was thinking more of the fact that a VHF or Bomber could mount the Codes for security in transit.
However, I agree, the Arrow would make an awesome courier ship.

What happens if you lose the cargo? Do we get to tar and feather you?
I'd be upset if my 4 twilights got snagged..
