Create a new POS module that functions like a mini station in regards to market transactions - allowing buy and sell orders to be placed at POS's.

Example: Wormhole corps that use the model of the Corp buying loot/salvage off members - all Corp would need to do is place buy orders for various loot etc, then members could simply fill those orders, getting paid, and the loot going into the market hub storage for the corp vets/directors to manage.

Give another target for pvp'ers to hit POS's, loade market hubs could be worht a fortune. Plus make wh life a little easier to manage.

I like it, cool idea :)

In addition to internal corp stuff I think it would be great to see small scale markets in wormholes and other remote spots in space buying and selling. Not sure how well it would work in terms of game mechanics but it sounds good!

The pos module should let you set up mobile market hubs in the system and has to be destroyed or taken down before the market hubs come out of reinforced mode and can be taken down.

While I do like the idea. I would rather have it as deployable instead of POS mod. As you might know POS system code is a mess.

Agreed. +1 if you modify the idea to what Chitsa mentioned. I believe I actually saw this on the dedicated thread for new deployable ideas.

Why aren't you doing this already within the corp hanger?

Seriously. I've been in three corps that used 1-3 divisions just for this.

More Character Customization :: Especially compared to what we had in 2003...
