Mothman Plans....dump time
I assume it's safe to dump the numerous repeat plans I received during the mothman events?
Honeycomb paper things and fuzzy whatnots, countless robes/hoods and all the related MacGuffin of mothman plans (exception being some of the new moth plans)
They're starting to weigh me down and I doubt any of the enlightened players will have any interest in buying them from my vendor....

Which leads to another point. There are more plans out there than can ever be sold...so the laws of diminishing returns kicks in after a while which surely results in plans being dumped all the time. Often times, I find heaps of plans put into the donation boxes.

You can't sell them as there isn't enough demand, and then the start to weigh too much to be worth carrying and therefore...dump....

And the other issue I find myself in is that 90% of the time, I'm at max caps...so even trying to sell plans is rendered pointless.

There will be more, there is always more and more will be added the next time the event comes up and in those there will be more new ones. Allot of the plans that roll out of events now we used to wait years for them to come back. Now everyone is a winner. (as long as you play or go AFK). Coming up soon will be Items that people worked many years to get and then they will not be trade only anymore. If you like your Legendary weapon you can keep it, If you like your wonderful One shot wonder-you can keep it-Period-Except they will be Nerfed and you will like it anyway.

A side note:

Those plans will sell BUT... you have to wait 3 a 4 weeks before putting them in your vendor. I always keep my plans in my stash after special events and after 3 a 4 week? Then i put them in my vendor and most of the time they will be sold out in no time.

Just a hint no more no less.

The problem I face though, is having more plans left to sell, but I am at max caps. And the remaining plans consume space....I have ALOT of plans. Including rare ones that I just didn't around to selling...vintage water cooler, TV Aquarium to name a few.

At 7K hours, there not much left for me to buy.

Plan B. Buy as many of the moleminer pails I can get and then re-open my shop...see what happens...

Have you learned all the plans that NPC vendors sell?

Ive been buying up the 2000+ cap BOS plans from the white spring to drop my cap limit down, I also hit up other players camps and I also buy up bulk scrap to drop myself down to around 30,000 caps when I start hitting 38,000 caps.

On the plans sure they do weigh a bunch, but if you list them for the default price or 50% off even common plans like that will sell. Just last night I sold x4 different Fastchnacht plans and I put four more up as I only keep one up at a time of plans to prevent others from buying them up and relisting them for more money, my goal is to sell to people that want/need them not those that want to be resellers.

For seasonal plans what I tend to do is I wait till the event is gone then start listing them, people wont buy if the event is still going on unless its a super hard to get plan. But if the season is gone people will tend to dole out caps for the plan if they dont know it already.

The plans I tend to drop are old camp plans like the milk vending machine, the dumpsters, etc. I dont even waste time trying to sell them cause those plans drop like crazy just by playing the game. I tend to hold onto weapon/armor plans and seasonal plans those are worth holding onto as they do sell.

yep... I have bought all the plans from all the vendors in the white springs, train stations...I've cornered myself at this stage...I'm a max gold also...and bought as many bullion plans as I want...

You get to a point where you can't spend your caps on anything any more...

The new DLC might help things...just another few weeks to go...

You have to blow it on things even you wont be using you have to buy what you can thats the thing with end game. Then once you buy all that up then you are reliant on other players and buying from their vending machines. Some of their prices are insanely high but it works out for you cause caps are super easy to make end game.

The other issue is that I'm almost always at my 1200 camp limit...5 lots of PA, 10 lots of mannequins with different armour, outfits etc. So, I have no room to buy anything new :-)

Sounds like you should start working on moving everything into your shelter and open up camp budget for yourself.

Im nearly maxed out in my home camp but my shop camp that I just built this month is about 3/4 to max, saved a bunch of budget by using the Super Duper Mart and Red Rocket garage prefabs to create my pre war store turned post war store.

Lots of bulk scrap in NPC vendors that I also have dumped money on, at christmas time I also have dumped money into gift wrap its expensive but it does wonder at burning through your caps allowing you to make more.

I got what I wanted somewhat quickly.
My two characters have extras and I'd rather players get them than dump them in the Wayward Donation box or some 1000+ player take them and then over-price them.

I dropped my duplicate plans on top of the building where you do the emotes after each event. I got sick of selling crap on my vendor. Just took up valuable space. Follow me for more crap I drop if you want.

Same here, I lost a bunch of weight over the last couple of days using up my Legendary cores crafting cheap lvl 10 3-star PA pieces to dump for 45 script. So now I am good till after the event to sell these plans. I was about to start dumping them too much weight but now im good.
