    Last ship coughed up it's drive just as I entered Antares. Tired of bumming rides off of people already.

    Looking to purchase a decent ship, that doesn't need repairs, and will get me where I feel like going. Nothing too special, I can work with a simple one.

    Hoping to spend between 5,000 and 15,000 pixels, can go up but not by much. Reply back to me with any offers.

    With that amount, by my estimate one would hardly be able to buy a landing shuttle.

    Interstellar craft are expensive. Warp drives use exotic materials that are difficult to fabricate. A warp drive alone could cost tens of thousands, depending on the size of the craft.

    With such a high demand for Ships in this age, cheap ships can still sell.

    Used or not, I'm simply hoping for a ship that doesn't suck up all my pixels in order to keep it working. I can go for a max of say 30,000 Pix but the less I spend the better from a personal standpoint.

    Could maybe buy an escape pod for that?

    Nobody has been able to give me a price on ships in this sector. Exactly how much savings do I need to pull out for a simple ship?

    If you haven't already, I'd urge you to check out my Starnet Article.
    I'd be more than happy to sit down with you and discuss a possible deal, whenever you're available.

    Cheers!

    Ships are expensive. 15,000 pixels? More like 150,000 pixels at a minimum. Especially if you're looking for a durable, no repair type. With 15,000 pixels, I'd make you a glorified slingshot. Could aim it at other planets. Point A to point B.
    Jokes aside. Triton Mechanical is fair. Good company. Would recommend packing more pixels.

    For fifteen thousand, you could probably buy a used vessel. Or a derelict.
