Statistics, Price, and Quality

Who changes the statistics cap on the price per item and how do we affect that?

Hi BlackPhase,

it seems I am not fully up to speed yet... ;-) So for give me for asking - What do you mean by "statistics cap"?

Cheers,

under statistics for product sales it says a certain price, for example beer never goes above 333.33 ct, schnapps never goes above 421.05 ct.... regardless of quality used. It can drop lower but it never raises above that.

How DOES it go higher? How does average price go up and can we do (if anything) to affect it?

Ah, I see, thank you for the clarification.

These numbers are determined by the market sales. Why do certain products never rise above a certain price?

Well, even though there is technically no price-limit, there is still always a maximum price that is rarely surpassed. These numbers vary from server to server, by the way. You have listed "Schnapps" as an example.

These are the numbers from the English server:

product number price quality
schnapps 210.928 404,33 ¢τ 17,41

These are the numbers from German server 1:

product number price quality
Schnaps 1.781.516 421,05 ¢τ 20,58

The numbers can of course be affected, but there is definitely always a maximum price that the products would really be sold for. Does that make sense? I can try to explain a little better, otherwise :-)

Best regards,

Hint: Its a function of the average wage, so by hiring more high wage staff you can increase the average wage and therefore the upper limit for prices.

Although if people don't raise there prices above 333.33ct it can't go past it :)
