How it works

Every week, Vial of "Dream Dust" ×8 (144 at base value; contraband) and 15% off wholesale. About 10 weeks to pay back from dividends.

What it does

Their courier's wholesale discount grows, and you get a dividend once a week when you open the shutter.

Rating

CLow priority

Provides weekly illegal drug stock and improves this supplier's wholesale discount by 15 percentage points. A large capital commitment is weak for a short buyout plan unless frequent orders also use the discount; dividends are goods to sell, not cash.

A narrow use, a high price or a nightly fee usually makes fixing your current business the better spend. Buy it only for a specific plan.

When stock is piling upDividends worsen a stock backlog if customers cannot absorb the goods; defer the investment.

When production falls shortCompare the discount on actual repeat orders with the capital cost. This supplies goods or inputs, not faster production.

Late game

Undiscounted unlock price on Mark Up: 1440. Only commit after repeated orders and several remaining weekly deliveries justify tying up cash. Do not count the base value of dividends as realized profit.

Upgrades and perks that work well with it

  • Lower Levels Chemist

    The introduction is required; use the ordering route consistently before paying for its shareholder extension.

  • Wild's Fixers

    The recurring illegal stock still requires crime control when sold; a dividend does not legalize it.
