It's always worth a try but as soon as these market hubs take any significant hold then they just end up in lockdown until people stop going there. To trade in low sec you have to spread your wares about somewhat..

A pretty good idea in theory, although in practise, hard to enforce the no kill issues especially in low sec where there are plenty of corps who are fairly hostile to eachother.

Most low sec status characters/corps usually have alt accounts to go to the high sec trade hubs which is not an overly complicated thing to do .

Scammers are currently selling killrights on this toon for up to 5mil, if you have paid for this service demand your money back at once.

Killing me should be for free.

Also, while this was operated in null sec rather than low sec, you might like to read about the efforts of the ISS in bringing true 'freeports' to null sec space (where outposts are made accessible to all).

If you look into it you can see that it takes quite a bit of work to maintain. Good luck!

For some reason when I first started playing this game I thought if you were +standing with Sansha or others you could go to their stations and those stations acted basically like pirate trade hubs. I thought it was reasonable to think that since other factions had their own stations.

I have a lover, her name is EVE. I see her every night and all she asks in return is that I have a pilot's license.

How about a pirate version of CONCORD? Shocked

Some lowsec systems are "trade hubs" (mostly kestrels, cynos, fuel, capital ships and capital modules). But you can't make a "low sec jita".

Why kestrels?

For use by cyno alts. Back in the day, it only made sense to make your cyno alts Achura due to their high starting Int. It doesn't make any difference for new characters since base stats are the same but the number of Achura cyno alts out there is still significant.
