Helping friends on sales is worth it?

On GTA helping friends with business sales - I don't remember the exact amount you earned, but it wasn't anything spectacular for that game.

 

I've been hearing on this game though, you can get a good pay. I was watching a video by the professional, and he got just over 300$ for helping someone sell their cargo. That's not getting supplies, no hunting, no waiting around - just joining in on the sale at the end, as far as I could tell.

 

That may have been a long distance sale though, since he does those. Now myself, I'm not doing long distance. Someone can just zoom by with a locked on homing dynamite arrow and waste all your time.

 

So, I'm curious how much you get for helping with a short distance sale? Full, 100 goods? Is it just a little less? Because then helping friends should be good money. Maybe even the same pay? Or is it a huge drop?

From what i see you get half the money but the same xp.

Correct! Long hauling 100 units will pay a posse member over $300RDO. Posse leaders need to name their posse something that indicates they are for hire!!! I'm always looking for security on my long hauls!☺☺☺

Yeah unlike GTAO it actually really pays to help someone do 100 good sales: it’s $312.50 for about 15 minutes of work.

 

Two kind members of the GTAF PSN Daily Objectives Community (@Rilfus and possibly@Sundevil - not sure if that’s matching the right PSN names to the right forum names) helped me do my first one and got $312.50 and a lot of XP for what was basically just a slow 15 minute horse ride for them - boring, and tedious, but very lucrative.

 

If anyone on PS4 needs someone to help them do their 100 good sales I am always available :D

You got a pittance on GTAO and thats only if you were in an MC. Associates got nothing except their Securoserve wage.

Posse members in RDO get half the total sale.

It’s a pretty cushy job right now. But I suspect that once people realise they can steal your delivery and get a nearly full material bar out of it, there might start to be a lot more highwaymen out there during sales - although I would love to be wrong about that.

 

In GTAO you basically got nothing out of destroying other people’s deliveries other than confirmation that you were a worthless human being 😝

A local sale is $500 to the posse leader and $250 to the members.

 

On a local sale your blip won't be shown on the map for others, therefore the better option IMO.

Basically a ride of 100 goods with a full posse of 7, would total to a staggering $2500. Every f*cking 4 hours. 

 

Each posse members gets $312.5, whereas the leader gets $625. A noticable difference, although understandable due to the high investment. 

 

Personally I would love to be able to choose the percentages of all posse members. So you could distribute it evenly...

I would take that with a grain of salt. I assume that you get whatever was in the delivery Wagon so if you had 350/500 Cargo then they will get that 350 added to theirs. You wont get a full bar of Cargo for stealing a shipment of say 1 cargo.

As much as I hate PvP this system is better. I would rather destroy my own Cargo than let people have it.

I’m just going by the thread where the guy said he got nearly a full bar of materials (not goods) from stealing a delivery wagon from another player.

Yea, I read that as well.

If he stole a Large Wagon of Cargo I could imagine he got a good chunk.

Must be nice to have people who still play this game.

 

I'm sticking to glitching a solo session before starting a long distance sale. Absolute win

I feel like you might be surrounded by such people here at GTAF!

Ah, well that sounds sh*tty. And not very like R*, you could just Trade Supplies between friends constantly if you get more than its worth each time.

My friend and I have confirmed you get half of the amount on small wagon...have not confirmed the amount on full large wagon at this point.  Much better than GTAO
