Ho much are the resell values for the mech? I read internet(2014 thread) that is is 50% of original sell price(accounts for discount) but i'm seeing 25% of original price. My friend told me the value was 66% and i saw this value before in the game, but now it's 25%. Confusing.

1) I won a Blood Asp Prime in January. The 'Mech has never been touched.

Selling it back would earn me 5 378 794 .

A brand new one costs 17 007 446 .

If I count correctly, I would recoup 31,6% of the original cost.

2) I have got a similarly untouched Orion and the resell value is 27,2%.

3) My conclusion is that you recoup less than a third of the original price. Not a good trade.

4) Also, some 'Mech, that you consider to be useless now and not worth keeping, could be given some strong quirks and turn into a good 'Mech in the future. You never know.

Honestly, I never sell my 'Mechs. But of course, you are free to do what you wish.

Hey Martian,

Did you include the cost of the equipment when calculating sale price? I've found that I get a little less than 50% of original value.

Good hunting,

Just the complete 'Mech, exactly as I won it.

Selling off equipment is nice, but when you need it, you must buy it again for the full cost. I keep all the equipment that I stripped from 'Mechs or that I won, since it takes up no physical space.
