Fairly self-explanatory -- At some point, we need to be able to sell off stuff located in other stations without actually visiting those stations. It would be best IMO if we were so enabled BEFORE station storage limitations of any description are implemented in order to ease the transition.

Issues:
May we thus see the prices of items from anywhere, or will we only be able to order things sold at their current price? What if someone sells 1 unit of something to determine the price?

This is especially important for those of us who have many items trapped at stations at which we are KOS and cannot repair standing.

I think it would be cool if said station of which you were KOS at, as part of making you KOS, liquidated your stored goods, kinda like those cop auctions. I mean, why would they continue storing your stuff or allow you to profit off of said stored stuff, when as far as they're concerned, your walking (flying) dead?

Edit: In fact, it would be even better if there was varying degrees of it. Neutral, they just charge you normal rates. Dislike, they rip you off. Hate, they jettison all your cargo out the nearest hatch. KOS, what's your's is their's, what's their's is their's.

I'd be fine with that, I just don't want a situation where there are recurring fees for storage of property no longer under player control.

what if each nation (and corporation?) had its own storage policies, selling policies, and fees? what if your ability to sell LD depended on faction?

this was suggested before. probably more than once.

i remember having suggested a broker fee for selling stuff at other stations. eg, something like a 4% broker fee for selling stuff that's remote from your inventory.

That's an excellent idea, uc.

Actually, remotely selling was originally part of the spec for the improved UI. We dumped it because of some technical problem in communicating between sectors (I don't remember the specifics). I'll bring it up to Ray though and go over exactly what the problem was. If it's feasable without too much effort, we'll do it, but if it's a "major revamp" kind of thing.. probably not.

Completely understandable, incarnate. If it will not be done before the storage limits will be enforced, it would be nice to have perhaps an extra week of notice for those of us with random stuff in 80% of the stations in the galaxy... Thank you very much.
