My day just got better so I thought I'd share.

Its nice. but only trade-hub wise. Most will still use contracts so everyone can find these rarer items.
Real purpose is to provide a market isk value for the new killmail info

Excellent. I'm glad we're moving all the market out of contracts and into the real market.

Contracts should be actual contracts for loans, alliances, etc, not for selling some piece of hardware.

Things are only impossible until they are not.

Pre-fit ships. I've never gotten them but there are some super-pro pvp guys out there that trade on reputation and have success selling contracts with pre-fit ships.

Sure. No I actually have no idea about that char but maybe? Usually in my experience the pre-fit ship dealers focus on selling to others in their same alliance.

Well... I can't speak for everyone but if I have a ship I want to hero fit (and I have a bunch) I would rather just figure out how the fit will work and then get the modules all at once in one place. If a module I want is too expensive or unavailable, it would be nice to be able to flip though the lowest prices on what is available so I can find an acceptable compromise. I don't want to have to string it all together across empire and yah it's worth a few extra mil not to be bothered with it. I think business will be booming in Jita for faction mods... think volume will go up, and I think we will be seeing a lot more faction stuff in lowsec pvp at least. I also think regular traders are going to be distributing these things to different markets, so overall it will generate more trade and transport traffic.

Backstory: Miilla spams Rens local with "fitted Hulk" contracts containing the fittings for a Hulk, but no Hulk. Makes a fortune off of it apparently, too.

ahhh. I can never make those kinds of scams work. I also tend to insta block scammers in Jita local so maybe Miilla is already on my s*** list. If you go into the "Ships" channel there are usually a few fit-ship sellers kickin around with mostly T2 rigged fit faction ships. Usually pretty legit... others in the Ships channel are quick to flag scams, usually.
