Iridium is hard to get and the new cache containers cost iridium.
Most of the time we don’t buy them because we don’t need them or doesn’t have money.
So an option to buy a cache what players can’t get has 0 value, its worth the same as the NO LOOT.
Free players who get 3 loot lose 33% of their loot because of caches, but also paying users lose the meaning of the extra loot options,
because an option to buy worth nothing if you don’t have the money.
So my idea is give us the option to salvage the containers. IMO the fair value would be the between somewhere 30-100% the price of the cache.
T3 Caches = 30 - 100 iridium
T4 Caches = 50 - 150 iridium
T5 Caches = 60 - 200 iridium
Very smart, Gizmomac! This solution is even simpler than mine. You got my thumbs up!
50% of the original price should be enough, but not less!
Salvaging gains for refined Iridium:
T3 Iridium caches = 50 refined Iridium
T4 Iridium caches = 75 refined Iridium
T5 Iridium caches = 100 refined Iridium
Approving this one, i always tought that caches i couldn’t get because i’m not swimming in irridium is lost loot.
Great idea, adding for review.
Part of why we don’t buy them is also because the content is totally useless.
You Sir, got my upvote on this. Great idea!

Agreed, Most of it is useless (for people that already have most the crap that’s in them), at least until we can get a proper trading system going. The way trading is now is hit & miss, mostly miss.
Oh and ofc +1 on the original post. fukn awesome idea!

We need a trading system that doesn’t use the chat, some GUI that can be used for international trading (i don’t understand russiand and most of this chat is in russian so…)
Even with a proper trading, the content is still useless.
The resources in caches are quite hard to get ; but nobody want them.
99% of the mk5 blueprints are useless beside with the only exception being t5 BP selling at 900k credit, to get creds.
Dessies items are useless. 1 BP + 2 item per module per rank, seriously ???
In fact the only good stuff are Alien tech ; reverse thruster ; and tai kin parts.
But that’s more of a complete remake of the trading system than a small change that can be done almost easily/
Not really.
Doing this won’t change much.
Because : Tai kin special modules were available only with caches. And you need tons of tries to get them.
With this or not, I’d still keep all my iri, to spend them only into event specific caches.
Great idea, I support. 
Never see that many thumbs up for a proposal! This is a great idea +1 .png “:576a55a9bca5d_):”)
Gerne super idee ”)
Not enough profit with this one.
(I personally think it’s great)
Yeah, that would also solve the “convert to credit” option, which has been hammer nerfed.
Bump. Make this happen. Many little caches will be spared from the fate of being burnt.
The whole point of caches is to stimulate trading between pilots. If you’ve got cache with parts you don’t need, the reasonable thing to do is to go to the market with it. Implementing this option basicly means to go away from trading, cause there’ll be much less items on sale. We’re planing to stay with it.
Just make a clear trade window!
