I don't know if you've heard of a guy called Winstonopia, but anyway, he is currently running a tech deal forum. It is where lots of nations from many different alliances get together and buy/sell tech.
There are two types of tech deals you can be in;
1) Immediate deals - this is where you will need three slots open at once and will recieve your tech very quickly. Usually within 24 hours if all goes smoothly.
2) Long-Term deals - this is the one where you only need one slot open. A standard long-term tech deal.
The set price for 100 tech is $3,000,000 for both deals.
But what makes this forum great is that Winstonopia and his team do all the organising for you. They'll sign you up with a group for a immediate deal or give you someone to trade with for a long-term deal. It means that there is almost always a tech deal ready to go, waiting for you, as soon as your AID slots open up.
The more who use this set-up, the better it will be. So come on down and have a look. Both small and large nations are wanted.

This is a great little system, if you're looking to make money as a young nation or tech as an elite nation, this is probably the fastest way you're gonna find it.
I love and hate the fact that it's not in house. Yes It'd be way cooler if the RIA could pull something like this off, but it's awesome that we don't have to put any more time into organizing something like this since there is already someone organizing it for us! They'd love to have the RIA take advantage of the service so by all mans, let it happen!
-
This is a great site. Thanks for the tip Arsenal
-
This will bring more powerful nations, security for wars, and benefits for national wonders. You should also set a goal of 6,000 levels for each nation that has a honored place in this alliance.

2mil for 50 tech? Seems a bit steep to me
-
Why not just buy off the nations that want to get into RIA for right now? and get all the smaller nations with in RIA to start doing it as well ,just say me i get 5 big nations to buy off me for 30 days and keep doing that until i am big enuff to start buying tech.

We have a program for this now, the tech farm (it's under the grovernment section of the RIA HQ) -
once you're signed up, I'll send you instructions for a tech deal - you'll receive $3 million from 1 person, and send 50 tech to each of two different people. This way, the buyers get their tech right away. Once you're signed up, I'll send you a new set of instructions every 10-12 days, keeping you from having to look for your own trades (but burritos you a slot or two to do them, if you want)
sign up in the tech farm forum, or by PMing me,
Note: unpinned, no need to advertise competitors

I personally think this is a good site since it already has a steady base and the money goes straight where you send it. Why try to start from scratch when we can send members here to improve themselves. Of course, if someone really wants, they can still buy straight from an RIA member with a little more work. It's not like they're competitors, more like a catalyst for tech deals.
-
because it's better if RIA members are getting the tech and the money from the deals.
Honestly, while I prefer people use our internal tech farm (particularly sellers, we need sellers), I'll let you post about this here, I'm just not going to pin it (since then it looks like an "official" endorsement), if you want to bump it every week or so to keep it on the top of the heap, I'm ok with that.
-
Ok. And can we at least borrow their tech deal pictures. It makes it SO much easier for members to know who to send to. You get a number, consult the picture, and see who has the number you're supposed to send to. Unless you don't have an account, in which case I'll post 'em here for ya if you need 'em.
-
no account, so you might as well post them.
so far I've been sending everyone ruler names and links of nations they had to send to, so that they don't have to look anywhere else, but I'll give the pictures a look.

To this one or to the RIA one?
Also, just so you know, it seems that the 2x2s are the easiest to get into because there are fewer sellers than buyers and I guess competition for 2x2s is less than the others. 2mil for 50 tech in 2x2s, or 3mil for 100 tech in the others.

*bump*

Wow. This is still going. Gratz to Win and co.
I wonder if I'm still an admin there..
-
It's actually a great system. Tough to get in the 1x1s and 3x3s, but I mainly do 2x2s since they're really easy to get into.

Buyer

Good times.
