Shopping on Warframe Market, pls help

[Anton031103]

I'm a newbie, I went to the market, and I see that full sets of many prime frames are sold for 30-70 platinum, this is normal, I just don't really understand. But why so cheap, it turns out that if you buy 8 thousand platinum you can buy almost all the frames or what? And do you need more resources to craft them all? Can you buy it only with platinum or do you also need ducats and so on? Thank you all in advance

yes only plat and maybe some of your credit (for tax), you dont need ducat but maybe some resource like Orokin cell

You will still need the resources to craft the Prime parts after getting the bps from other players.

Supply and demand. Typically when a primed warframe is in the current rotation for relics, they go for cheap since they're relatively easy to grind.

its not cheap, this is the normal price, in game trade chat is overpriced and the prime bundles in game are extremely overpriced

you get prime blueprints from relics, and they are rng. better chance when u team together and use same relics for better chances. some relics get vaulted over time, so thats why they fluctuate & are kinda cheap. plat is just there to cut the time out of it all and you have the item instantly vs trying to craft it and they take 3 days fully to make in the crafter.

I mean the prime bundles include plat in them so if you want to buy plat you just get a free prime with it pretty much.

Edit to add that all the items in a prime access come with catalysts/reactors and slots.

that doesn't change how much of a bad deal they are

[EXC-Monarch]

it is the standard price , if you got discount / plat sure spend it on prime part. you think it cheap because normal warframe price are expensive than prime version. the store is trap for newbie player. That why don't spend your plat there only for cosmetic. just buy plat when you get the discount

I mean we are talking about someone spending plat on something that can be easily acquired in-game, everything but just cracking relics is a bad deal. Specially if they are a new player with only starter plat.

never use the trading in-game chat is a SCAM for new players and yes Primes are so cheap when are on relic rotation when not can cost 170-200 plat but seems that DE now do the rotations more frequenly and with 6 prime packs sometimes instead of just 2

the only issue you will have in any case with trading is ducats or credits of taxes before you puchase from other player look the tax

edit and maroo bazaar is a waste of time nothing like WFM web

They used to be worth a lot back in the day when grinding their parts was far more tedious. But now it takes like around an hour or so if you're unlucky to get a full set.
