Are you sure that you have coin in your inventory to cover the tax? if so, maybe you dont have the exact type and amount of coin? Idk just covering all the bases.
I threw this into the bug system yesterday when I tried. But you are giving a good explanation. I did not buy the management skill book yesterday because I have to get more money before.
Would be a typical StarVault bug.
I now have Management and Negotiation at 100 skill.
I am able to sell.
If you have coins in your inventory to cover the tax, there is no mouse-over on the sell item button telling you what your tax rate is or how much its going to take.
If you do not have sufficient coins in your inventory to cover the tax, there is a mouse-over on the sell item button telling you that you don't have enough coins to cover the tax rate of XXX%.
I was getting tax of 5% when I had 0 negotiation skill, reduced to 2.5% when I had 100 skill.
Price set at 1g 1s, don't have enough to cover taxes. Mouse-over confirms tax rate at 2.5%
Price set back to just 1g. 2.5% is 2s 5c. I have exactly this in inventory. Get error message saying I can't afford it. I am wondering if the Brokerage fee is actually set at a fixed fee plus the %.
Test 1 - 1g sale price, 2s 5c is tax. Required 2s 90c in inventory to sell
Test 2 - 2g sale price, 5s is tax. Required 5s 80c in inventory to sell
Test 3 - 4g sale price, 10s is tax. Required 11s 60c in inventory to sell
Assumption: Broker Fee
(40c per 1g sale price) + (5% of sale price)
5% can be reduced to 2.5% with Negotiation Skill at 100.
I am wondering if the 40c part of the fee might be linked to your standing with the nation.
Eg: am in Bakti.. Khurite Allied Tribes = Disliked.. is this why i am paying flat 40c per 1g sale price
