With the quick bar, you can not purchase the whole fit with one click, you still have to select each individual mod and purchase it, then move on to the next one.

I'll throw my support in for this. We already have this feature in DUST 514 right now, so why not?


Because in DUST everything always has the same price and is always available everywhere.

Okay so you click the fit, click purchase, see the price break downs, and you have to go through a pick each one because the market is ******** at figuring out which is cheaper. It typically shows whatever has the most inventory even if it is overpriced. It doesn't take that long to repurchase the ship through the saved fittings or your lossmail, and then if you have it saved you can just click fit to ship through the saved fitings. Guess what, there is also a save fitting button on each lossmail.

I'll even give it a +2 for usefullness

It would need an option to "buy in station only" though.

This idea comes up rather frequently, but once again I fully support it!

Just make a buy range function, station, system, region etc and the option to automatically buy cheapest or buy closest to you.

It will then prompt a buy list broken down by module and price, confirm and purchase.

This feature will never exist in EVE because ships and modules are supplied by other players and thus ships/module availability is not uniform across all stations and systems in EVE. This feature would only work in Jita and thus would not be useful if you're on the opposite side of New Eden.

I see this suggested several times a year, and it never gets added in. Who knows why only ccp knows....

I for one really like the idea, as long as it showed the price of each item so you don't end up over paying, and it let you select a buy range and possibly the security of space you're buying from as well.

Annoyingly, the market quickbar doesn't retain the unit count for fittings that were dragged for the fitting window, which means you have to have the fitting window open anyway to get the unit counts, so you might as well just not use the quickbar because you can right-click on the fit items themselves to get market info.

That works, but it is still a ton of clicking :)

+1 to the idea


I also play dust514 and it has a restock option where it buys fits for you. Could it be like that????


Edit: Upon reading all the other suggestions just have a station only checkbox and ba-da-bing ba-da-boom everything works.

+1 to this idea but on the flip side i feel this would take some of the gameplay away and make people lazy, next you will want ccp to make it so you can bot pvp
Just my personal opinion

I think it wouldn't make any one lazier. You can buy the ships fitted off contracts now, this will just make it easier for the person setting up all those contracts. Will also free up a lot of people on srp or doctrine teams, allowing them to participate more in pvp. So it has the potential to create more content.

Yes it would make it easier for people making these srp contracts but thats how they make there isk so like any isk making in game you have to work for it

Would be a wonderful addition to the game, however I do believe I read something about CCP working on a 'mass-buy' or 'mass-sell' option. I feel these two would be connected, and the other was limited by some technical issue. Hope to see it in the near future though.

When re shipping in the middle of a fight, or making the job easier for people who buy and sell ships on contracts, can we get an option in the fitting menu that will allow us to buy an entire fitting? The button could be called "buy setup" or some thing similar. When the button is clicked, it pop's up with an overview of all the module prices and what percentage they are over average market price. Then you can either deny or accept, and if accepted it buys the entire fitting. Then when the fitting is purchased you go to the usual "fit" button in the fitting management and the entire ship is fitted. A Total price for the setup should be shown which would also show a break down for the individual prices for the items, This would include the price of the ship as well.

Special thanks goes out to Cpt Ghost for his ideas and input.


Can confirm, would pay additional tax (ie, higher than listed purchase price) for this option.
