Nope, the melt value remains at the amount you paid. I've melted almost all my packages that I used my 15% off token on and now it's as if I didn't get one. :*(
Starfarer priced at $300 now

I have acquired a few Andromeda to Gemini from [SOURCES]. If you want the name of the [SOURCE] let me know. FYI it was around $50.
EDIT: Tapped out my [SOURCE]! Lots of TESTies with Geminis now. I'll try to find more if there's interest.

I have not gotten a CCU yet, I'm probably not going to go grey market again. I got the ship I really wanted and don't want to chance loosing it. I was refereing to buying a CCU to the Farer when it goes back on sale. That way if you come into a free ship, or other means. It will be there for you should you change your mind. I'd gift you my extra store credit I'm going to have left over after my personal farer purchase, but you know CIG.
I find it kind of funny though, CIG has basically stated at every concept sale that this is the cheapest the ship will ever be, prices can always increase... but once a ship finally does so, all heck breaks lose. Basically every sale should be considered as "this might be the last chance to et it at this price, you never know". Just by looking at them it should be quite obvious that the Starfarer as it turned out should NOT be cheaper than a Connie Andromeda and that's the reward people got for pledging for a Starfarer before it was done, one heck of a deal. Now that we know what the Starfarer actually turned out to be, I feel it almost still cheap at $300, compared to the Carrack, Reclaimer and Hull E at $350. It is one majestic son of a ship.
Also remember, we back the development of a game, not actually buying spaceships.The ships are our rewards for backing it.
(Also, also: In before price increase of the Caterpillar)

I do agree they've said they can increase. And the Starfarer should increase based on what it is now. The reason people are freaking out is the amount of increase. Over $100 is quite the jump when before it's been 5-20.
Also: Too late for inB4 Caterpillar increase. ;)

Let @Han Burgundy or me know if you have more... We want to CCU the crap out of his Andromeda to a Starfarer.
Sure. It's to a Gemini though. They're old CCUs, Andromeda was more than base and there's no CCUs for that.
Also, thanks @Grimbli for the good work hunting down the beerfarer CCU. You, good sir, are a gentleman and a scholar.
That is a big jump in price but I think it puts the ship in the right price range for what it is. I would love one but the wife might kill me if I spend much more on this game.

I know mine would.... That's why I spend @Han Burgundy 's money!
Heck, I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I want to do. Keep the Penguin and do simple run and gun things or run with some TESTies that have larger ships and save up for my Gemini that way or upgrade to a Super Hornet when I can.

I have a Sabre and Avenger and I think I am going to switch out the Avenger for something else... It just doesn't make sense to have two combat ships. I was thinking of getting a Freelancer or Reliant for medium/small cargo runs that wouldn't make sense in a big ship like the Starfarer.
Starfarer can do large cargo runs with its space. And you never need to fuel if you detour to Gas planets!

I see it like this... you wouldn't take a semi-tractor/trailer to run to the grocery store.
