How do you nullsec traders deliver your goods? Do you only do it in blue areas, or do you contact the alliances and buy the docking rights? Nullsec trading, to me, seems highly dangerous as there is a higher risk getting blown up wiht your cargohold full of stuff. If you do buy the docking rights, how much do they cost and how long are they active?

If you go to an NPC station you don't need anything special, not even to supply Twisted

If you want to actually import stuff, you are not forced into doing it yourself either.

There are guys who do it all by themselves, but the fact you are asking about how to here means you will die and lose the stock.

I'm not sure about other regions of space but at least in CFC held space (that would be all of west and most of north 0.0), docking rights are not sold at all, and only members seed the market. You could try seeding the NPC pockets I guess, lots of irrelevant nuisance alliances like staging there for a few weeks to annoy sov holders. Still, without a JF and cyno alts this is a great way to lose your cargo with regularity.

but for the low fee of just 500m ISK you, too, can become a member of the CFC P

npc pockets are a mixed bag - the risk of going there to pick up stuff means you have to provide either unique goods or much lower prices than in sov space. the pirates living there generally have their own supply lines in place and will probably prefer a jf kill over any utility you could provide them with.

I'd suggest to start by hopping into a covops and start relisting stuff instead of importing things right away. That should give you a fair idea about the competition you face from other traders and the local demand for the items you trade in.

Trying to negotiate standings is a waste of time and you can never be sure if they won't be revoked tomorrow for no reason other than lulz. Just join a local corp/alliance.

For 500M a month I can arrange docking rights in VFK. Send me a mail if interested.

I don't always play EvE, but when I do, I prefer it to be a masochistic sandbox hell. Stay wardecked my friends.

I too like to tell people, that would like to shoot my 6 billion isk jump freighter, that I plan on visiting their station with a cargohold filled with goods. And, to top it off, I pay them for the information!

I think EvE needs to change the logo to PvP. People don't seem to get it.

You're welcome to relist but you'd better have extremely deep pockets and the desire to sit in a covops for weeks. Also I'll thank you for the profit and reseed the items you're relisting within an hour. Lol

A lot of the stations in Providence are open to the public.

You could also contact an Alliance Diplo, see about getting blue standings. They'll likely tell you where to go, but worth a shot?

Without operations like mine it would be impossible for certain Alliances to conduct a respectable war. There are three basic types of arms deal: white, being legal, black, being illegal, and my personal favorite, gray.

You can also just buy and sell comonitys with regional buy orders. You can double or even ten fold multiply isk if you got patience.

Though latter on if you want to move stuff it will be a *****.
