Hi,

is there a particular reason why Story/Faction/DED modules are only listed via contracts? I see implants and vanity items listed in the market that have similar high pricing and many story/faction items are priced around T2 items.

For me it always is a hassle to lookup the contracts pages for those "variations", while i see no reason why they don't exist also in the market api. If UI clutter is a concern simple add a filter option for the listed items T1/T2/Story/Faction/DED/Officer, this even is already in place for contracts via the "|" operation in the search mode.

bye Andy

They have mentioned that they will be doing this soon likely as part of the WarDec (and new Kill Report) system, as they want to attach an ISK value to these things and as it isn't possible via Contracts (as prices aren't tracked for them) then all of these Modules have to be on the Market.

The exception will be Blueprint copies, for obvious reasons.

To get this to work properly, we’ve (with help from team Game of Drones) added everything to the market and fixed a few items that didn’t have a price (like Titans), with the price being based on material ingredients. Here is a mockup of the war report. This is a work in progress.
