Anyone with freighter sized cargo that need moving in empire let me know, ive not got a charge yet but will hammer out a deal that will suit both parties.

Im looking at trit hauling contracts which i will cover the isk value of, my freighter can carry 86.250.000 units and im looking at a deal where i charge per jump and a percentage of the haul, this isnt written in stone just a template to work with, contact me in this thread or in game if im available.

good service for the medium to small corps but soon as pirces start droping you will get less work
trit might not be the best of ways to go current sell prices are 3isk in large quantites and shuttles can be refined for 3.4isk a piece at most station
now to make a profit, you would need to sell below 3.4isk, say u choose 3.2isk, u make 0.2isk per trit thats 20mil for a full run - in other words no real profit
i think pyerite might be the market ur looking for
also transporting minerals into and out of 0.0 space
and perhaps NPC trading routes
might even be able to haul BS from place of manufacture to the sell system, but then again would a corp hand over 20BS to you

Good points but i chose trit as its the main building component and with the freighter building going on im hoping i will get work, but atm i havent had any offers even tho im prepared to cover the isk value of the cargo as an act of good faith.

as far as i can see, freighters are just a wast of money for anything under a 25man corp and then it will barly be used
good for POS, bulk mineral moving into and out of 0.0, some RISKY trade routes
none of this is done by a single person afaik
there where some very nice trade routes that could of made a freighter lots and lots of isk, but ccp nefd that afaik. so using frieghts is limited to the larger corps
u could/should try moving pos equip, like ice, to 0.0 NPC stations and sell at a 50% profit, but then u need a small fleet to protect you
its very deficult to see a freighter as something to make money, more a grea time saver for the larger corps
the medium end minerals might be worth moving, i know that there is a LOT of mex for sale at 8isk a piece in deep 0.0 and in empire it sells close to 20isk, that would be good apart from everyone and his dog will shoot u on the way htere and back

You can make a lot of isk hauling npc goods in empire but it takes a lot of effort, mainly making bm's, the freighter is a slow ship and bm's are essential to speed up the travel time and maximise profit.
Atm im making around 75M to 125M a day depnding on distance and bm's, all well and good but you have to consider i paid 2.25B for the ship, but not just as a npc market hauler, our industrial corp needed a large hauler so its purpose is two fold.

I've got a couple of questions if you don't mind.
1. How long does it take to get into warp? Including aligning time and getting up to speed to enter warp?
2. Is it true the warp speed of the freighter is under 1 au/s?

it can take upto a minute to get into warp maybe a little longer depending on your alignment, and its warp speed is 0.6 Au/s
its a slow ship even with bm's
I picked up this ace book today everyone rates it as a must buy for the budding military genius, tho ive decided to rename it as "Sun Tzu's art of the bloody obvious" |

atm i dont have the balls to enter 0.0, im sure theres plenty of people itching for the chance to pop a freighter
maybe when i have a second freighter who knows.
