A [[Ship Dealer]] is an independently-run dealership which offers spacecraft and spacecraft components for sale as well as repair and rental services. There are 33 ship dealers located on bases around the [[Gemini Sector]]. Ship dealers include a Showroom, a Ship Modification bay and a Sensor Booth. [[Avr ships]] is the ship dealer located on New Detroit. [[Exploratory Service|Exploratory Services']] officer [[Gabriel Quentin]] wrote about the organization in [[GEMINI SECTOR: AN OVERVIEW]]. In 2670, Lynn Murphy believed that failing to deliver ore and construction equpiment from the Corcoran Corporation through the Church of Man blockade of Liverpool would cause ship dealers to begin running out of spare parts.
The [[Main Concourse]] is the central hub of many bases in the [[Gemini Sector]]. It allows access to a variety of storefronts. Every main concourse provides access to a Mission Computer, landing pad, bar and Commodity Exchange. They may also include Ship Dealers and Mercenaries' Guild and Merchants' Guild offices where available. Main concourses are found on agricultural planets, mining bases, pirate bases, pleasure planets, refinery bases and New Constantinople. Similar facilities under different names are found on New Detroit, Oxford and Perry Naval Base.


== Showroom ==
==Main Concourse Types==


The showroom offers three types of spacecraft for sale, the [[Orion]], [[Galaxy]] and [[Centurion]]. It is staffed by a salesman who is familiar with the spacecraft and who can provide potential buyers with brochures and their contact card. Payment is deducted automatically and the dealership delivers the new spacecraft to a landing pad. Ship dealers will accept used spacecraft as trade-ins at their Joan’s Index Value, including the Tarsus which they do not offer for sale. The resale value of a given ship's components are factored into the total value of the trade-in, with damage to components taken into account.
* [[Main Concourse (Agricultural Planet)|Agricultural Planets]]
 
* [[Main Concourse (Mining Base)|Mining Bases]]
Any cargo aboard a ship is tranferred to the new craft. A sale can not take place if the ship being sold contains more cargo than the new one can hold. The Merchants' Guild blocks Ship Dealers from selling surplus cargo during spacecraft trade-ins although some less reputable salesman will keep excess cargo for themselves. Jump drives, secret compartments, sensors and navigational maps are also transferred to new spacecraft rather than sold.
* [[Main Concourse (Pirate Base)|Pirate Bases]]
 
* [[Main Concourse (Refinery Base)|Refinery Bases]]
Ship dealers do not offer financing because of the risk assosciated with operating a spacecraft in Gemini. New spacecraft must be purchased for a lump sum. They do not offer insurance. Ship dealers on pleasure planets advertise rentals.

== Ship Modification ==
 
The ship modification bay allows spacecraft owners to purchase, sell and repair upgrades and equipment for their spacecraft. Ships are moved from landing bays to the ship modification bay for any work. The dealership can repair damaged guns, engines, shields, armor, tractor beams, jump drives, maneuvering jets and sensors. The bay is also used for purchasing and loading ammunition in the form of missiles and torpedoes. Spacecraft owners are forbidden from purchasing missiles or torpedoes if they do not own a launcher as this constitutes intent to sell. The trade-in price for components and the amount charged for repairs is decided based on their level of damage.

== Sensor Booth ==
 
The Software Booth is the room in a ship dealer where spacecraft owners can purchase, sell and repair scanner hardware and maps. The booth has evolved since the deregulation of navigational software following the collapse of the Meshach administration. Because of this deregulation, spacecraft can legally operate without any navigational software for only the second time since before 1969. The software booth offers lineups of three scanner types each from Iris, Hunter and B & S.

: I see you're looking at the Centurion.  Hell of a ship. 
: As you can see, the Centurion is a heavy fighter. 
: Note the racks for 4 guns, 2 weapons and, of course, a rear turret. 
: Beautiful, eh?  Look at those hard edges, the aerodynamic sleekness... 
: Did you know the Mercenaries' Guild has endorsed the model 2069... 
: ...as the best publicly-available fighter? 
: The Centurion is a real bargain, priced at $U3 credits. 
: I can give you $U1 trade in value on your old ship, plus $U2 for all your extras. 
: Leaving you with $U4 credits to outfit your new Centurion. 
: So how about it?  Interested?

'''Purchase Centurion'''
 
: '''SHIP DEALER'''
: Hell of a ship, the Centurion. 
: You are obviously a privateer who likes firepower... 
: But I'm afraid my boss won't let me trade ship for ship. 
: Can I tell you about the Orion or Galaxy?
 
====Too Much Cargo====
 
'''Purchase Centurion'''
 
: '''SHIP DEALER'''
: Good choice, but far be it for me to pass up a sale...
: ...I can't afford to take advantage of a customer.
: The problem is, all of the cargo currently listed on your ships manifest won't fit in this baby...
: ...and the Merchant's Guild won't let us trade your surplus cargo.
: So go ahead, sell off some cargo, come back and I'll fix you up.
: Believe me, I'm doing you a favor telling you this...
: ...some dealers will keep your excess cargo, guild or no guild.
 
====Can't Afford====
 
'''Purchase Centurion'''

: I hate to break it to you, but we've checked your account...
: ...and you don't have enough credits to buy this ship.
: She sure is a fine ship though, isn't she?
: Listen, I want to make a sale, you want to make a purchase.
: Let's look at the numbers...
: This ship retails for $U3 credits.
: I can give you $U1 trade in for your ship, plus $U2 for your extras.
: Including your cash on hand, that leaves you short by about $U4 credits.
: Go get some more cash, and come back when you're ready to deal, okay?
: And don't feel embarrassed...these things happen...

'''Purchase Galaxy'''
 
: '''SHIP DEALER'''
: Checking out the Galaxy Class merchant ship?  Good choice. 
: She's not as flashy as some ships, but she sure is practical. 
: You get a roomy cockpit, loads of cargo space... 
: ...and you can add top and bottom turrets if you feel you need more fire power. 
: Did I mention she's a fast ship, as merchant vessels go?  No?  Listen... 
: If you can't afford a Drayman...and who the hell can these days... 
: ...you'll find the Galaxy fills all your shipping needs.  And it's a steal at only $U3! 
: We can give you $U1 credits for your old ship, plus $U2 for your add-on modules. 
: You'll have $U4 credits left in the bank to load out your new ship. 
: So...how about flying a Galaxy home today?

: She's not as flashy as some ships, but she sure is practical. 
: If you're into aggressive space combat, then the Centurion is just what you're looking for. 
: If it's security you want... 
: ...the Orion sports better armor and shields, but you'll give up a little cargo space. 
: Which ship can I tell you about?

: She has the thickest armor and best shields of any ship on the open market. 
: Sure, the cargo space is limited, but she'll keep you AND your cargo safe, get it? 
: This ship has something for everybody.  Merchants have cargo protection... 
: ...and mercs can fly her with confidence that they'll come back in one piece. 
: The Orion has racks for 2 guns, a weapon or tractor beam, and a rear turret. 
: A great buy at only $U3 credits. 
: Of course, you'd get a trade in of $U1 credits for your ship, and $U2 for the extras... 
: ...leaving you with $U4 credits for new accessories. 
: So...you want one, or what?

==Wing Commander Privateer Player's Guide==
 
'''Ship Dealer'''
 
The last common location is the ship dealer. These privately held dealerships are where you can buy the latest model ship. Indicating the ship you would like will undoubtedly lead to a sales pitch. Be forewarned — there are hitches that they do not mention in their pitch. Here are a few things you should know before dealing with these shysters:
 
* When trading-in a ship you also get trade-in value for your upgrades. If you have a turret, two meson blasters, shields and a cargo expansion, your trade-in value is the Joan’s Index Value of your old ship, minus wear and tear, plus the current selling price for each upgrade.
* Dealerships refuse to deal with transferring cargo unless it easy on them. You must have less cargo than the capacity of your new ship. If you trade in a fully loaded ''Galaxy'' for a ''Centurion'', the salesman will turn you away until your cargo is less than the capacity of the ''Centurion''.
* There’s no financing. Unfortunately, the life span of a pilot in Gemini is short enough that they are unwilling to take a risk on you making payments. Not surprisingly, no insurance is available for freelancers. This means saving up a lot of cash before buying much of anything. While inconvenient, the businesses have little choice.
 
'''Ship Modification'''
 
This is where you buy, sell or repair options. Options include armor, guns, turrets, cargo expansions and anything else that adds to the performance or longevity of your vehicle. Interfacing with Ship Modification is as simple as using a monitor. Use the buttons at the bottom of the screen to select Buy or Sell mode. Using the arrows at the sides, you can scroll through the available items. When you find an item you are interested in, simply touch the screen to indicate your selection. When you have indicated a gun or other such item, you are asked to pick the location on your ship where you would like it placed.
 
Please note: You are not allowed to purchase missiles or torpedoes without a launcher. This constitutes intent to sell and is strictly prohibited. Should you decide to sell a launcher that still has missiles or torpedoes allocated to it, the ammunition automatically sells at the going rate. Always buy ammunition last and sell it first.
 
'''Software Booth'''
 
The other useful department in a dealership is the Software Booth. This is where you acquire such essential equipment as maps and scanners. Both are imperative. It seems that this is one of the areas that was too rapidly deregulated. Without a map you may as well be flying blind. In over seven hundred years of space travel this is only the second time we have allowed pilots to fly about with no navigational software. While the manufacture of scanners is competitive (there are three brands each with their own high and low end models), maps are not. Scanners are important, maps are essential. Spend your money wisely.
 
This listing should give you some sense of the recovery Gemini is making since the lifting of martial law. We are on the economic upswing. This is a sector of opportunity, a frontier for the risk takers of the Confederation. Your contribution is an important part of making us an immovable fortress on the Kilrathi border and a growth-oriented, prosperous community.

'''Ship Dealer'''. There are three types of ship available to you. If you are ready to buy a ship, click on the one you want and the salesman will offer you a deal. If you have too much cargo for the new ship, he will recommend that you sell part of your cargo and then come back. If you cannot afford the new ship, he will tell you so. When you buy a new ship, you will be credited for the trade-in value of your old ship, plus the current value of any modifications
'''Main Concourse.''' These vary significantly from base to base. All businesses are located just off the main concourse of each base.
 
'''Ship Modification'''. Select BUY, SELL or REPAIR. Click on an item to purchase, sell or repair it (depending on the mode you’ve selected). If an icon appears when you buy something, drag it to the location on your ship where you would like to place it.
 
'''Software Booth'''. Select BUY, SELL or REPAIR for scanners and maps. Click on the arrow buttons to scroll through the available equipment or (if purchasing) click on the item you are interested in and it will appear in the monitor. To buy, sell or repair the item, click on it in the monitor (when it is in the appropriate mode).

Earlier designs for the game planned to have a separate ship dealer and repair/upgrade bay.
Initial sketches of the repair bay were by artist Paul Steed; Steed would often add scantily clad women to his concept work.

Main Concourse
Privateer - Screen Shot - Concourse - New Constantinople.png



The Main Concourse is the central hub of many bases in the Gemini Sector. It allows access to a variety of storefronts. Every main concourse provides access to a Mission Computer, landing pad, bar and Commodity Exchange. They may also include Ship Dealers and Mercenaries' Guild and Merchants' Guild offices where available. Main concourses are found on agricultural planets, mining bases, pirate bases, pleasure planets, refinery bases and New Constantinople. Similar facilities under different names are found on New Detroit, Oxford and Perry Naval Base.
