Are ship prices set

[Igneous]

are do they differentiate in different systems

i want to know before i farm CP for a python when i can just go somewhere else and find it cheaper

They are mostly set, but certain systems have a discount.

Find systems exploited by Li Yong Rui or go to the founders world. The latter requires at least one elite rank.

Generally they are the same price in most places, same for modules.

However, there are some places where prices differ:

Shinrarta Dezhra - 10% off everything, everything can be bought there. Must be a founder or have Elite in 1 of the 3 categories to access.

I Sola Prospect in Brestla - 20% higher costs, but also has everthing in stock. Planetary base so must have Horizons.

Anywhere in Li Yong Rui (Powerplay) territory - 15% discount but they don't have everything in stock, you need to shop around.

And there are specific stations where you can get specific ships cheaper. For example, the Asp Explorer and Orca can be got 20% cheaper in Alioth at Irkutsk station.

Also was amazed to learn we get 2.5% discount on anything when we get Elite rank. Never knew that.

Also there is a station which gives discounts and stocks all modules for those who have got a certain rank in CQC.

That is interesting.

So if you're Elite in one rank, you get 2.5% off?

Elite in 2 of them you get 5% off?

Elite in all 3...7.5% off?

Could this be right...?

50 mil for the ship and another 50-100 for the modules.

Yep, it stacks with every other discount too, so 15% off in LYR becomes 17.5%, for instance.

No, it is just the 2.5%, unfortunately.
