Have you tried to time Coke Lockup Supplies Runs & Sales?

[derek0514]

I am curious what the standard time for doing a Coke Lockup Supplies Run (I choose steal option on resupply) and Sale would be.

 

I am thinking 15 min both and all this work for a $20,000 sale in Blaine County from my PB location. I will be timing these.....while whatever I get on a sale is pure profit with the time and risk I wonder.....

 

On a VIP sight seer which I can do in less than 15 min I get 25000. Get my point?

For a sale, are you counting 1 bar of product? 2? 3-5?

Are you talking solo or with help?

"Private" lobby or public?

If public, how busy? Is everybody cool, or are the d-bags?

Local delivery or City>Blane or Blane>City?

If non-local, are you starting at the docks/PoletoBay or mid-city/SandyShores?

 

For supplying, are we talking Taqui-La-La or chasing all four Securoserve trucks?

 

I've done a single-Buzzard sales run in 4:10 and a double-PostOp in 27:50 (I've yet to break 10:00 for a single PostOp, but I know it can be done).

 

You have some variables to account for, OP

I dont really get your point, you actually confuse me.

 

-Why would you sell 20k cocaine at a time

-Why does Sightseer take so long for you

-Why even use Sightseer as a compare

 

Maybe its just me though :S

You are doing MC business all wrong.

[KornbreadMaf1a]

There is almost too many variables to really give an average amount of time. Times are different based on the number of MC members, what type of sell/steal mission it is, how many people are in the session and wether those people are going to try and interfere or not, clubhouse location and location you are selling it at.

 

All I know is I'm making more money with the MC businesses then with anything else I've done in this game besides duping cars.

I never timed it and now I'm getting glitched unlimited supplies (don't know why) but before I would do a solo run to steal supplies and it would take longer than a sell run (because I always had to go from Sandy Shores to LS) and I would only get 1 bar of supplies (because I was solo). So if it costs 75k to buy full supplies (5 bars) then a run to steal supplies only equals 15k (solo), so it wasn't worth the time for me to steal them.

 

On the sell runs there isn't a point in timing them because the different sell missions can vary so much. Last night I sold full bars on both businesses (first time for me) and got 3 buzzards for the first one and then 3 boats for the second one and they were both easy and fairly quick (but boring with no players messing with me).

 

Other times I've had 3 vans for only 2 and half bars and it took forever. Sometimes I get the single truck with the stoned passenger for 3 bars and it's really quick.

 

But yeah I agree with Kornbread, I'm making a lot of money (but not as much as the D word ).

I am not sure if I get the point. "If you do something wrong enough you might as well not bother and do something else instead"? Of course your profits are bad if you choose a bad location for your businesses, sell local instead of remote and deliver each crate in a separate sale mission.

That's all it takes to take down a jet-griefer

 

Feels soo statisfying, now that I own one I see it as my 'duty' to take down any griefer I see...

who then moves on to grief a new session

 

btw is off the radar broken for anyone else?

people ghost etc and i can see them

Was this a "post and ghost"?

 

OP puts out a question, others reply with points and clarifications but the OP never responds.

[derek0514]

I have done as high as $80 k sale. However the higher the sale the more the potential loss if griefer.

 

I spent most of today in public lobby alone. Then it started fill up. This gave me a chance get more experience w MC biz.

 

Some sell missions easier than others. If you have a long MC run to do a drop say in Sandy use the Train tracks fm from PB get there bc u go thru rr tunnels which can be shelter from jet griefer the path on roads in yellow much longer distance and open with no shelter. I had first 100 pct sale loss from jet griefer fortunately only $20 k batch. This was after the lobby had filled up to 8 or nine people.

On ques - sightseer.

 

I can do in less than 11min but to get full 25k need let time left run down under 4 min.

 

Why compare to sight seer - payout about 2250 min. Plus it does not require any investment to run!

 

The resupply runs for MC business easily take longer for about $15 k of supplies if I paid for it. Somebody may write a how to on each of the types like the guy did on daily objectives. I can do that but don't have time.

 

Yes there are many very variables. Some of the sale missions can be an all or nothing some you will get partial for items delivered like if multiple drops.

 

Most resupply jobs I fly to site in buzzard and some have mech bring Karuna if lots enemies fight. My fav resupply missions where I can fly back w supplies in buzzard. Others force u on long drive in slow vehicle.

 

Stealing supplies means free supply cost the more this is stolen the less pressure on all sales being 100 pct successful. If you buy all supplies My best estimate at this time is y Gross Margin 25pct of sales.
