FAQ D/L

Trading

Obviously the objective is to buy low and sell high as you travel from planet to planet. Always check to make sure that the item you are purchasing has the highest gain possible on that trip. Always check for high gains from the current planet to future planets. Sometimes you can miss great trades by focusing only on your current planet and the next one.

Intergalactic Banks are located on Earth, Norhaven, Metallica, Richiana, Stockworld and Homeworld.

Here is a useful datasheet for evaluating your planet runs.

Also, here is an Excel spreadsheet that will aid you in planning profitable trade runs. All you have to do is enter your flight path and it will calculate the profit gained on a particular item from the current planet to the next two planets. Current version of the spreadsheet is version 2.4, last updated December 23rd, 2005.

Note: BBS's can vary in configuration and planet data. This spreadsheet is currently configured to accomodate data from multiple Planets games. It is a work in progress, expect updates and changes.

This datasheet allows for great customization, but be careful when making changes, not to lose the formulas in the process. There is no password to unprotect the sheets.

Please Note:While the percentages never change for the planets unless altered manually by the sysop of the BBS, some prices do fluctuate. For instance, the base price for Fighter Drones might increase or decrease on a given day. The inflation percentages will remain constant, however.

Also, there may be more planets and items if additional packages have been installed for the game. With the exception of the Excel datasheet, all of this information is based on the normal state of affairs in Planets: TEOS.
