EPS Regulator - where buy?

Hello,

can anybody tell me where I can buy a normal EPS regulator Mk IV engineering console?

I'd like to craft a rare one, but have not found a shop to buy the normal. It is
supposed to cost something like 2k energy credits.

I searched Starbase 1, Deep Space K7 and 9, all to no avail.

(and don't even mention the exchange - cheapest there is 90k (!!!), which is way more than I have and entirely ridiculous for a t2 item)

    You can only get them in loot drops or from the exchange, you cant actually buy them from the usual suspects.

    Note, the ones you get from the badges/medals drops are the same as if you crafted a basic one from memory alpha. Save your crafting resources for ground stuff and just buy your space gear with badges/medals.

    I would like to know where you craft one at? I have unlocked all of tier 3 crafting in Memory Alpha and have not seen consoles listed in any of them.

    I've had one on the exchange for about a week now. I'm only asking 400 credits. I had two and one sold right away, but no one is buying the other. I noticed you can't sort by price so maybe this is why no one seems to know it's there. :/

    I pickup up when I find them cheap (less than list price) and have them in the fleet bank. I buy only commons so I can swap them out when I rank up.

    They sell well though, I picked up too many IV's and sold them in a couple hours at 29K.

    as far as not selling, it seems NO ONE buy I, III, V, VII and IX versions, unless they are rare.

    You can also get it at the Ship upgrade section by talking to one of the persons with the ? mark over there head by using your Exploration points.

    No you can't. The OP wants a Mk IV EPS engineering console. You can't get Mk IV EPS consoles as Exploration rewards. The Exploration gear vendors in Earth Spacedock do have EPS consoles, but only for higher ranks. They don't sell Mk IVs.

    Simply put: there is no NPC vendor of any kind in the game to buy Mk IV EPS consoles.

    I doubt that.

    There are exactly 26 common EPS flow regulators Mk IV on the exchange right now.

    The cheapest sells at 75,000, the most expensive one at 200,000.

    And the 27th ******* - who sells a rare one - demands a hefty million.

    (Which sortof comfirms my assumption - reaching as far back as the days of diablo II - that 95% of all traders are despicable scum.)

    There are no ones you get from badges or medals. Neither common, nor blue or green. At least not on Starbases 1 or K7

    I believe the OP was looking for Mk IV. The vendor bought badge versions are not available until Mk VI.
