In that case there would be no price floor, that'd just be equilibrium.

Which is a good point. However, I am assuming based on the wording that you won't be able to sell the CM version on the GTN. I'm guessing it's either a direct unlock like legacy perks, or it's BtL.

If that proves untrue, then I would accelerate my timeline to say that the crafted ones will only be overpriced for 24 hours, at which point the CM unlock will hit the market and everything will quickly gel to the CC/Credit conversion rate, and crafters will be sol when it comes to selling theirs.

I'd laugh if LS was 11,000,000 credits and you both go broke

Nah, we'll just add handling fees and Republic/Imperial sales tax.

I often buy from the cartel market instead of using credits. Let's say that legacy storage is either 1,500 CC or 3,000,000 credits. I can make about 400,000 credits/hour in game. That means I have to put 7.5 hours in to buy it with credits. Conversely, I can buy cartel coins for $0.007 / CC. That means legacy storage costs me $10.91. Less than one hour work at my job pays for that $10.91.

Essentially, using in game credits: 7.5 hours of work to get legacy storage

using CC, less than one hour of work to get legacy storage

It all comes down to how you value your time. Dailies are not the fun part of the game for me. Instead of spending mindless hours running dailies, I will spend a fraction of that time working IRL, convert real world money into credits/CCs, and enjoy the parts of the game I like with a whole lot less grinding.

It isn't laziness, it is simple math.
