Buy - Sell, Buy - Sell. Dealing commodities is the only civil
way to make credits in Privateer 2. Buy low and then turn around
and sell high. It is a very easy way of doing business. Transporting
goods safely and finding the right prices are not so easy. If you
decide to deal in black market goods, transporting can be dangerous.

Cargo Trading Notes:
--Go to the Hints and Cheats section of this
site to read about a good cargo run between two planets.
--Leviatha is a good place to buy water. It is cheap and plentiful.
Good places to sell water is at CS:Pletirat and
Hermes which are relatively close to Leviatha.
--Do not sell medical goods on Crius unless a news bulletin
reports a shortage there.
--Early on in the game when you do not have a weapons powerfull
ship, hire cargo vessels with turrets. Some lower priced cargo
ships do not have turrets. Go to the Ships and Best Loadouts
section of this site for more information on cargo ships.
--Do not go towards Hades with black market goods.
