Maybe I miss the point or I am just ignorant of the whole armor system
but I was looking through the bazaar terminal and noticed some people
selling armor at 6k with either a condition stats of 1/1 and I think I
have seen negative numbers.

Is there some repair job that can be done or is this a scam that the
seller hopes the buyer won't notice when purchases the item?

I like to think I just don't understand because the alternative is
that the usual small "tard" population that exists in all MMOG is busy
at work.

1/1 or negative armor is only good for decor, it is not repairable

and the person selling it may be ignorant of what it means as well. I
know I didn't know for a long time about that myself. And I believe that
you may only need 4 pieces of armor anyways. Least that's what many
armorsmiths are now selling as a kit, and claiming that it does as good
as a full set without problems for most targets.

Hm, which 4 pieces? Looking at the combat window, I get hit just about
everywhere.

here's the post and the armorsmith is a Master, former guild mate. If he
says it works, and Arsenal agrees, it works heh.

Helmet, chest, boots and gloves. In theory, any attacks on arm
locations will hit the gloves, and any attacks on leg locations will
hit the boots. There is some dispute about whether this works against
enemies that use specials. Running thru the Corvette in a 4-piece, I
ended up with a lot of Quickness wounds.

It works. Sicne they fixed the "Armour Hole" you now only need to
wear Gloves, Boots, Chest & Helmet. You only get hit in the other
places if you wear the peices.

Expect this to get fixed at some point however

people are crooks in the game. seen many things for sale that were not worth
anything. or an item that was a bad crafted item that someone still wanted
credits for it.
if it had not been that i had crafted av-21, when corvette went live
players knowingly wanted to sell me schematic that was worthless without
power source. they had no response other than "do you still want this" when
i asked if they had a power source with the schematic

Welcome to SWG. Yes, it's a haven for crooks and to take advantage of the
poor newbie. Fill those bazaars and vendor
- overpriced items
- decayed items
- low condition weapons (reused - and repaired)

I've even seen CDEF's put in vendors with far-fetched prices. As a
smuggler, no matter how good a slice was, CDEF's aren't work 250k.
Also, you'll see plenty of advertizing for all items on a vendor for 1credit
or 1000 and when you go there - they are over-priced.
Don't forget to mention the starports with spamming.

Then, you have Architects who want to much money for the items they craft -
but they really have no choice to ask for higher prices - since every other
profession already does.
Unfortunately, most newbies won't know about much of this until they've
spent enough time in the game.

Want some cheese with that whine? Looks like you've been burned before and
haven't moved on. As far as spamming at starports, that's called
advertising, moron. And always be a smart shopper. Do what I did and read
through guides on web sites like swgcenter.com allakazam.com and yes there's
even station.com!!!! Don't come here looking for sympathy, everyone gets
burned in this type of game but you have to learn from it and move on (I
did). And please don't say you're trying to warn others and help newbs, that
would be even more pathetic. Do what I do, when you spot a n00b at a starter
city like Mos Eisly, help them and give them guidance.
