Hello there, Arbiter Crow. Arbiter? So, you're the chief these days? I must say, I'm surprised you would respond personally to a minor acquisitions request. I call that an honor.

I've been hearing a lot of chatter about troubles brewing throughout the colonies, and especially the edge worlds. I know things are getting rough, and that's why I need a steady boat. I have no doubt you Congressionals have your hands full, too, but the Junkers always turn it to profit. I fully intend to carve out a slice for myself, as well.

As for the ship, and speaking of profit, let's talk price. Considering the fact that you're currently suffering a bit of a crisis, I can understand the need to receive fair compensation for parting with such a valuable logistics asset. My own assets don't amount to anything resembling a great fortune, but if it's credits, we can try and broker a deal. I still possess modest credit lines with a few people.

I'm sure you don't have time to dicker, and as I need the ship sooner rather than later, I'll forgo standard bartering practices and start high with my offer. Normally, I'd say two five was a reasonable sum for such a ship. Perhaps three if it came with a proper shield generator. But, as the Junkers are suffering a crisis as you say and necessarily must charge a premium, and though I'll be increasing my own personal debt, I would be able to go five times that amount, though that will leave me without much in the way of means for the refit.

That would amount to roughly fifteen million credits. A hefty price for a freighter, but a sizable sum to add to the treasury to assist in funding your own operations during your time of crisis.

What do you say?

Mike out...
