Considering to buy the coke business in the Alamo Sea to be the sister business of my Senora Desert meth lab, and I want to ask a question about product and sales.

 

Is it worth it to sell the product when it's full and switch sessions if I ever get the stupid vans, or is it better if I just sell them below 1.5 bars of product like what I'm doing now?

You lose 10% if you quit while in the mission. I don't know how much you still get if you complete a sale missing some packages, though.

I own that coke business and I've yet to get a Post Op van sale, but the mission with three Trashmaster is easy, I've managed to finish with 2 minutes remaining.

Apparently there's no advantage in selling a full warehouse, unlike the CEO sales.

Yes it is best to sell 1 ; 1,1/2 bars if you are solo since it is only 1 vehicle/plane/boat. Goes much faster and i even do it in full sessions most of the time.

Half the time1.5 bars of coke gives me bagger. With dingy I will get 144000, 126000+18000 check point bonus. My coke factory is also in Alamo Sea.

Does 1 full bar of product give you the same price as 1,5? Because I don't notice the price to increase until it reaches 2 bars....

Every unit is same price. For coke every unit is half bar 28000. For counterfeit every unit is 4900. Not know about other business.

....and 1 half-bar of money counterfeit cash give around 23-25K.

finally bought a counterfeit cash business yesterday -without any upgrades- . so , as a lone wolf i wanted to make sure that i´ll get 1 vehicle for the delivery. so full 5 supply bars give you a bit more than 1 bar product (maybe 1,25 bars) , and that gives you only 1 delivery vehicle.

but I have a question: so i´m paying 3k/GTA day for my business . do i keep paying those fees if I log off without shutting down the business ? let s say that I´m gone for 8 real time hours, do i have 30k less in the bank by the time I log in again ?

you only pay it if you are registered as mc. when offline, ceo or not registered then you wont.

ok , thanks :)

but if the business production keeps on running in the background ( while you re doing CEO job for example) ,you´ll still be charged right ? so "not beeing registered as an MC" would be not enough (you´d still be charged cause of the business still running ). Shutting down the whole business prevents you from paying the fees .

Try it out.

 

I've been doing some business.. err, business. And I suppose I can double check but I'm pretty sure I didn't pay for them when I wasn't registered as MC president.

I have yet to pay my business once. I suppose that you need to be in the same session for more than 48 mins and probably you do need to be registered in the MC

Probably yes ... still don t figure out how does the fees´ payment exactly works ...

anyway, I have to rectify something : 1 full bar in a counterfeit cash business (without any upgrades) brings around 28K (at least ,that s the figure which can be seen on the display ) ,which goes well with the figures in post #1

so yeah , biker business brings almost nothing ( at least you re stealing the supplies )

BTW : are the NPCs that you have to kill a bit too OP ? I got almost onehitted everytime , with full armor and so ...

Yes, I wasn't well aware of units.

 

Looks like the best moment to make a sell and get only 1 vehicle is when you have 1,5 bars (3 units of coke, 6 units of meth.......).

Alright, then. I've finally got the cost of all businesses in terms of upkeep per 48 minutes of being an MC. I'm going to lay down the costs below (even though I've done some of them individually, but I'm compiling them all now).

 

Note

Risk Levels

Determines the amount of stars you get from scripted wanted levels (have a wanted level around police station, alarted during Stockade search etc etc) and how much time you have until your supplies/product is visible to everyone.

 

Risk Level 1: 1 Star and about 30-35 seconds until your product is visible to everyone.

 

Risk Level 2: 2 Stars and 20 seconds until your product is visible to everyone.

 

Risk Level 3: 3 Stars and 5 seconds until your product is visible to everyone.

 

Upgrades

Only two of the upgrades increase stock value. Staff and Equipment. Security makes it less likely to have to defend your business. Both equipment and staff increase stock value by 20% individually.

 

As for the businesses

 

Document Forgery

 

Full Stock Value (Fully Upgraded): 60 000/90 000 (84 000/126 000)

Equipment Upgrade Upkeep Increase: 1 500

Staff Upgrade Upkeep Increase: 2 250

Security Upgrade Upkeep Increase; 750

 

Fully Upgraded Upkeep: 9 000

 

Unique Supply Mission: Steal Humane Labs Boxville from gang dressed in white by a derailed train (Van!)

Unique Sale Mission: Deliver up to 4 Baggers to a single destination. The first destination is a sting operation (despite using Lester to remove wanted level, they are still hostile and the Cruiser will keep chasing you if not dealt with).

 

Extra: N/A

 

 

All Fully Upgraded Business Upkeep: 30 000

 

I guess that should cover some things. Hope it's helpful. If there any any Extras or possible unique sale mission for Counterfeit/Meth/Cocaine, let me know. LJT's call should talk SPECIFICALLY about the product you sell.

 

Also, TL;DR: Cocaine is the best since its unique supply mission is the only one with a van, meaning 2 bars.

You don't pay for your businesses when you are not in your mc BUT when you start your mc up again you will pay for one day(if a day has passed) But you can be away for several days and you still only get charged for one day.

 

When i talk about a day or days i'm talking about in game.

if my businesses are running in the backround while im doing ceo or not registered to anything, i get charged for one day when i reregister as mc, doesnt matter how long it actually was. i have even left 4 businesses running overnight irl (put character watching tv so you wont be kicked)

do you need help listing the Supply & Sale missions ?

 

I have the counterfeit cash business , as a lone wolf ( and i did it many times ) , I always got those 3 supply missions :

- stealing the Vapid Speedo van from the mansion near Devin Weston´s house (where the enemies are OP imo )

- picking up the supply after throwing a torch at Davis Quartz (of course after "cleaning" the area )

- picking up the supply after kicking Lost MCs´s a** & throwing a torch at Murrieta oil field

with a gang ( prospects) , I got other supply missions like picking up the Vans near Paleto Bay or the Tequi la la fist fight :) and the Losts got their a**es kicked , everytime :) Never got the Fleeca supply mission so far !

 

for the sale missions I only got Trashmasters so far ( I only sold twice , one @1 bar product & one @ 2 bars )

Any supply/sale mission that is not listed under unique can be given from any business. Same goes with the location. Sometimes you get a supply mission where you pick up the supplies REALLY close to your business. Those are always great.

 

I could bring up every type of supply mission, but only as much as my memory would serve. Then come sthe issue that supply missions can be located at different places chosen at random. Example being cause trouble at police station could be the one in Paleto Bay., which is annoying unless you have your business sin Paleto Bay.

Unique Supply Mission: Steal Humane Labs Boxville from gang dressed in white by a derailed train (Van!)

Unique Sale Mission: N/A

Unique sale mission for cocaine is the following:

Four baggers. Go to the first delivery point, escape an undercover cops ambush with three stars wanted level. Then you have to deliver a vehicle to another location.

 

Yeah, now that I think about it, I seem to only have gotten it for the Cocaine lockup. I need to be more vigilant to confirm it.

Yes it is best to sell 1 ; 1,1/2 bars if you are solo since it is only 1 vehicle/plane/boat. Goes much faster and i even do it in full sessions most of the time.

 

but then you end up doing 5 delivery vehicles for a full house which is 2 extra compared to selling at full with a 3 vehicles mission...

Alright, then. I've finally got the cost of all businesses in terms of upkeep per 48 minutes of being an MC. I'm going to lay down the costs below (even though I've done some of them individually, but I'm compiling them all now).

 

Note

Risk Levels

Determines the amount of stars you get from scripted wanted levels (have a wanted level around police station, alarted during Stockade search etc etc) and how much time you have until your supplies/product is visible to everyone.

 

Risk Level 1: 1 Star and about 30-35 seconds until your product is visible to everyone.

 

Risk Level 2: 2 Stars and 20 seconds until your product is visible to everyone.

 

Risk Level 3: 3 Stars and 5 seconds until your product is visible to everyone.

 

Upgrades

Only two of the upgrades increase stock value. Staff and Equipment. Security makes it less likely to have to defend your business. Both equipment and staff increase stock value by 20% individually.

I guess that should cover some things. Hope it's helpful. If there any any Extras or possible unique sale mission for Counterfeit/Meth/Cocaine, let me know. LJT's call should talk SPECIFICALLY about the product you sell.

 

Also, TL;DR: Cocaine is the best since its unique supply mission is the only one with a van, meaning 2 bars.

After i relocated my counterfeit cash business to the desert i have not gotten the fleeca supply mission. When i had it in LS i got it quite often. Is that just a coincidence?

Yes but at 1,1/2 bars you can sell it solo in a full session no problem and i am pretty sure you cant sell a full 5 bars alone, i agree with what you said i am just talking about doing it solo.

 

PS: Isnt selling full 4 vehicles not 3 havent done it that is why i am asking ?

I got 3 Boxvilles from Grapeseed weed farm to the city, and 4 Baggers from Morningwood coke factory to the observatory (with cop ambush). Never seen any more than that.

Just a reminder to everyone not to be as rockf*ck stupid as I have been with refusing to pay for security at my businesses.

 

I was solo resupply grinding my meth and cocaine businesses in paleto for a couple of hours and had filled my cocaine and was ready to attempt a solo sale of a full meth factory. I left my Coke factory and ran across the road to the meth factory. I was dicking around with my options menu and didn't look closely enough at the building to notice the police crime scene that had been set up outside. I saw it at the last second and had just enough time to pull out a gun but not enough time to shoot it before I got hit simultaneously by about three different cops. I hit the ground like a sack of sh*t.

 

I respawbed and got the message that I had failed to protect the meth lab. THEN I received the call from LJT warning me that the meth lab was being raided, which was immediately followed by tge call from LJT telling me that the raid had succeeded and the meth lab has been shut down.

 

So, I guess my take away from that whole bullsh*t episode is that the raids aren't triggered by the call from LJT, rather the raids start and THEN LJT calls the player. So you definitely can't rely on LJT to warn you ahead of time and you need to be paying attention to what's in front of you. Part of the reason I didn't notice the pigsty out the front of my lab was because I had half an eye on the minimap looking out for other players, and the police didn't appear as red dots until a second before they opened fire.

Is all product in the destroyed vehicle returned to the warehouse? And how many explosives does one take?

you still get raided after buying the security upgrade, it happens less tho.

before buying it for my meth lab it was robbed by a rival gang once, had to go to a location where they were selling off the robbed product and it even had a "product left" display par. had to kill them and take what was left of the product back to lab. this havent happened to any of my businesses after security upgrade, only police raids and snitches.

lolnope you loose it. post op van is stronger than a tank, took like 8 stickys + 2rpg-s, i use the hydras cannon now.

If you loose the product then i don't get the reason why you want to destroy it. Before using the hydra you must have spent about 6000 on explosives then. And since you get paid for the amount of product you deliver i don't see the advantage in destroying a vehicle.

1. i only did it once with regular explosives to see how much it takes and i only destroy it if im certain i wont make it in time.

2. for some reason if you let the timer expire, it would not count the money i earned for the total sales statistic in my warehouse, i still got the money but it counted as completely failed sale. If i destroy the last vehicle, this doesnt happen.

3. you loose the product when timer expires too. if i destroy the 3rd vehicle, then the sell mission ends when i drop off the 2nd and i can move on to other things. if the 3rd vehicle is still there im locked in the sell mission for whatever time is left on the timer and have to wait it out or travel all the way back again.
