I don't know if anyone mentioned this, but if you hang on to as much of your stuff as you can until you get to Kadara, the turian at the wind farm buys them for something like 5-10x more than anyone else. I hung on to all my salvage from NG+. Checked at a regular merchant, and it was worth around 40k. Sold it to her and it was around 350k.
Ditto with weapons, armor, mods, and everything.

I'd heard that she was a "credits exploit", but not the how and why. This is so simple, I'll have to use it, at some point. She owes me more than a discount, anyway, for that crazy quasi-setup at the navpoint.

Yeah I don't see how this is an exploit, unless someone misplaced a zero somewhere. My total credits is now around 500k.

You've got to do her sidequest and then confront her about it, no? She says she'll give you a better deal and a discount for your trouble.
What's there to spend money on anyways? I haven't had any need for it really. Craft weps & armor and the various mods/skins for nomad weren't that expensive.
There cool stuff to buy I haven't found somewhere?

Nope, you can trade with her as soon as you accept the quest. I usually use the credits to buy resources like eezo and uranium, some weapon mods that I don't want to wait to drop. Also useful in NG+ if you screw up your inventory right before hand Also if you're a respec-er, that can add up quick. I'm sure there will be more stuff eventually.

She owes me more than a discount, anyway, for that crazy quasi-setup at the navpoint. There's kind of an exploit with her, once you do the quest she asks you to do, she'll sell to you at a discount, but buy at full price. If you have a large amount of a mineral that sells for a decent amount, you can sell it to her at full price, then buy it all back at the discounted price. Do that a few times, and you can have crazy amounts of credits within a few minutes time. Not a huge deal, really, but if you like to do a whole bunch of crafting, and don't particularly care to do any mining, this gives you a crazy amount of money that you can just buy the materials you need from merchants. Nothing gamebreaking, but it's definitely an exploit.

I don't worry about credits. I rarely buy anything, and when I do and sell any salvage, I still gain credits

Nothing gamebreaking, but it's definitely an exploit. Good to know. If only Research Points were for sale! Those are the real limiters, when it comes to research. I don't worry about credits. I rarely buy anything, and when I do and sell any salvage, I still gain credits Same here. I rarely buy anything, and end up ridiculously wealthy without trying. I've been buying more things this current PT, but I still have more credits than I'll ever need. I wish I could hire some researchers to send Research Points my way. That would be more useful than credits. I only like using Milky Way equipment, for the most part; and crafting an entire loadout of MW armor and a couple of weapons is simply unrealistic until very high levels. Since I've already done the "chase XP" thing in my first PT, with the DS Explorer armor, I'm buying armor and weapons this PT. It's allowed me to try a greater variety of gear.

I bought a handful of model ships and some nomad paint jobs but have never used it for anything else. Crafting and looting make credits useless, unless I'm missing something...

Crafting and looting make credits useless, unless I'm missing something... I figure some people really avoid crafting and don't want to make things any more complicated for them than they have to. Buy a gun, shoot gun, get credits, buy better gun, shoot better gun, get better amount of credits...repeat.

Use starting gun - shoot gun - loot better gun from dead enemy/crate - shoot better gun - loot even better gun from dead enemy/crate - shoot even better gun.......... repeat. And as a bonus people get to use different weapon!

I picked up a carnifex, slapped a vintage heat sink on it and didn't use another weapon for the rest of the game. /Shrug

I just gave a more cost effective advice if money is hard to get.
