One of the AMD ones with the branded Mustang version? If you're not interested in using it, you could probably sell that for around $100.

EDIT: this one https://starcitizen.fandom.com/wiki/Mustang_Omega

Is that ship really worth that much? I also have an AMD Mustang Omega. I knew it would be special someday!

That seems to be the going price recently, yeah.

No idea how people handle escrow on those gray market transactions, maybe there are trusted middlemen who will do it for a cut. I’d be iffy on trading a limited edition ship to some random person online.

Wow, that's pretty wild, I figured they would be pretty common. I probably would never sell it anyway, but maybe it'll be worth even more by the time the game actually comes out. lol

Yes, that is the price that it fetches in the open market! Because enough people feel it provides them with at least that much value in return. For all the weird detractors (who seem hell-bent on telling other people what they should or should not enjoy), Star Citizen is a great game with a great future providing value to a thriving community.
