I am selling my services as a courier. Contact me, and nobody has to leave their legions. 30 CTP per trade, plus an extra 5 CTP per additional item (e.g. 35 CTP for tranferring 2 types of artis) Also, 75 CTP per planetary trade. (i invade, i share, you invade system) I'm a fairly new player, so if these are unreasonable, let me know, and i will update my prices accordingly |

People can just add each other on Facebook or request trade pacts betweens there legions to send artifacts. Planets require both persons to be in the same legion. |

Planets also have to be abandoned, so you're asking only 75 CTP to pay 5 GP to abandon a planet and alert it. |

Or if the seller is a high rank, and it costs them multiple billions to invade the planet, and they don't want to spend that? |

Again, i'm kind of new to GL. Ok, so planet transfers are impractical, but i am still willing to do any artifact transfers, if anybody is interested. |

Or, make it simple?: 1) Courier goes to seller's legion. 2) Seller removes and defensive/offensive structures. 3) Courier invades planet. 4) Courier goes to buyer's legion. 5) Courier alerts legion, buyer invades planet. I don't see why you can't do that. |

No, n00b's method of planet transfer is pretty practical, though there is the question of how we could trust you - if I sent you off with a planet, I would want some sort of surety until the buyer had the alert and I reinvaded. |

I don't know for sure, but if i tried to invade a planet occupied by a powerful player, wouldn't i have a lower chance of success? |

But if they wanted you to invade it, b/c you were their courier, they would lower the defense and population and attack, which significantly improves your chances. In the end, if the planet has no stats (no atk/def/pop/cloak), your stats will determine invasion chance. Rank doesn't really matter. |

ah, ok. Well, in that case, i think it could still work to ship planets to others. And as far as trusting me, the planet still would stay in your scanned database so if i tried to double cross you, you could take it back from me. Besides, because i reset when i was about r50, i am currently r27, and it would not be difficult for you to get you planet back. |

Kram makes a good point about his low rank providing some reassurance that you could get your planet back if need be (not absolute obviously). As far as the courier providing some sort of surety, if the courier had a planetary flux they left with the seller whilst the delivery was made they would really have the means to get their planet back if something went wrong. It also means there is a reasonably costly disencentive for the courier to take the planet for themself. If all goes well (as per NooB's suggested method), the flux is returned to the courier and the planet purged etc. Clearly, there is still a level of trust required (it's not a fool-proof plan) as there always is when it comes to trading in GL but it would at least provide the seller with some surety. If necessary, you could even use several planet flux for the delivery of more valuable planets. |

But that's trusting that the seller will not use the planet flux on any other planet, or use it at all if the courier does not steal the planet... |

No doubt, but there's always some level of trust required in every transaction because someone has to be the first to send and there's no way of making sure the other person makes good and holds up their end of the bargain. Despite this, there are plenty of exchanges taking place all the time. In the case of using a courier to deliver a planet it's the seller that hands over the planet first and assumes the risk, but if they're holding something valuable of the courier's (as collateral) it provides them with some security at least. |
