Its possible to buy almost anything through corp contracts. But to do so you someone has to create the contract for you to buy it. That is unlikely to happen with Pyerite as the market is a far easier place to sell ore.

It is more common to have a corp system where you place your ore in a container renamed with your name, and drop it into a hanger that members don't have any access to (one-way move). Say once a week, a corp official then appraises the ore and sends you ISK.

A variant of this system is to contract your ore to a specific corp official. Same idea, except it costs 10k for the contract.

You can buy anything through corporate contracts though. Generally market items are more expensive on contracts.


Tip: You don't need an office to make corporate contracts for items located in deliveries.
