I am 90% sure that Diaguandri -Ray had T-9s. They have a 15 ship shipyard, and it was mostly larger ships.

If you don't find it there, it's only about 30-35ly to Aasgananu-Houssay. Houssay had more of the smaller ships, but you never know.


Aasgananu-Houssay does have the T-9 it is where I rebought mine a few days ago.

I am at Ray gateway of Diaguandri this morning.

Here is the current list of ships available to purchase:
Sidewinder, Eagle, Hauler, Adder, Viper, Cobra, DB Scout, T-6, DB Explorer, Vulture, ASP, Orca, Python, T-9, Anaconda.

It's one hell of a shipyard! I have confirmed that the 15% discount is still valid by checking 3 ships. :)

The discount is still valid on outfitting as well, and they are quite well stocked!

Awesome. I am about 6 million short of it, so another 2 hours before I can purchase. First need to see how many LY that is from Sak Manka. Might have to strip the T7 here and sidewinder it up there.

Hey, it's not that bad. I did 135ly this morning in a Sidie. I installed a class A FSD, and added 2 fuel tanks before I left home. Didn't even have to stop once! It only took about 12 minutes to get there.

I was able to get all of the class A modules for a Scout this morning and when I visited a few days ago, I was able to upgrade a Python with everything that I could afford (A-C modules). Between Ray @ Diaguandri and Houssay @ AAsgananu, they had everything that I needed. ;)

Perfect. I am putting the largest scoop I can and another tank on the T7 and will strip it there, then Rares me all the way home. Will be leaving Imperial space in 15 minutes.

Thanks for the heads up on this discount.

I now have traded my T7 for a T9 that has an A rated FSD, a C rated power plant, D rated everything else, and 464T cargo for 84 million. That is a bargain in anyone's book. And with a big cushion of credits to keep it running, I will be making up the credits I spent quickly.

Hats off to you chaps.

Just need to setup a rares run back to gain some coin.

Just wanted to bump this thread for those that may not be aware of it. I visited Diaguandri yesterday, and saved $2.4mil on a class A shield generator for my Python. Yes, I had to travel 130+ly, but with a 2nd fuel tank on board, it only took about 15 minutes each way.

You can still purchase nearly every ship (except Empire ships) in the game and a fantastic selection of outfitting goodies at the stations mentioned in previous posts.

I have gone full circle, sold my T-6 in Asg, got a fighter to get something better than harmless and now I am back to get the T-6 so I make some more money. Glad I found this out and shared and for the thanks in this thread, now to a new thread for a new subject. (Rares)
