OK so im a lowskill player and am looking to get the most profit out of my PI. (in highsec)

My question is with all the custom taxs u pay transfering ur products to and from the planets to make enriched uranium would it be better to just find a T1 products that theres alot of (per planet) and just produse alot of that insted?

T1 usually doesn't net enough to make it worth it, especially in high sec. At minimum, I would try to build a T2 product on one planet and ship that out. Check out the recipe for rocket fuel and find planets you could produce it on without having to import anything to do it

P1 has a very large volume for its value, the more you process PI stuff, the smaller it gets. also, P2 is the minimum the market moves. P1 is not a real market, is just people selling their massive stocks bought before PI was introduced and the odd buyer trying to get his factory planet back in sync because hes missing one P1 or another.

the only way you can make P1 be worth your time is if you find some dude that runs a manufacturing operation and needs the materials. but even then, you'll be making a commitment to meet a quota, and delivery dates... so its better to just make P2 and sell at a hub once a week.
