Finding LP stores for a given NPC corp

Hi everyone !

Context: I've run a few missions and I've got loyalty points from half a dozen NPC corps. I'd like to exchange these LPs for items so I can sell them for ISK. I think I can only do that in a station owned by the NPC corp that gave me those LPs.

Question: how can I find where [some NPC corp] has a station ? Is there an in-game browser for corp stations ? Is there a website somewhere ? I googled a lot but only found dated info on item-to-ISK ratios...

It's quite silly but for the life of me I can't find the right way to do that, beside retracing my travels until I find a system with the right station (and do it until I've sold all my LPs back to all those corps).

Thanks in advance,
Carl

There seems to be something wrong with our bloody ships today.

agent finder ingame can show you where particular agents reside (if the agent is in the station, the lp shop will match the faction of the agent)

IIRC if you do a show info on a NPC corp, there is a tab with systems they have stations in.

Or you could use: http://evemaps.dotlan.net and just search for the NPC corp and it will definately list them there.

Well, I *knew* there was a simple answer. Several of them actually.

Agent Finder and simply 'show info' work fine. I should have found those ! Oops
I *had* tried eve-maps but I couldn't find a list of stations for npc corps. Home system was listed, though, which is a start.

Well, thank you both. I will now proceed on flooding the market with about half a dozen low quality implants. Brace for impact !

How in who ever you prey too couldn't you find it on Dotlan:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/fy330yso0ru0fbi/Staions.PNG?dl=0

It's not like they made a big button named: Stations.

And that if you click said button...it shows you a full list of all stations of said NPC corp.

Well I'll be ...

I *swear* it wasn't there !! Shocked

??

Alright, digging further, it seems there are three corporations (even more, actually) called 'Astral Mining something' and the Astral Mining Corp corp I found at first is not the NPC Astral Mining Inc. corp I was looking for.

-sigh- Well, aside from the *three* ways to find what I wanted initially, today I learned to really *really* pay attention to names.


OK, I'll stop wasting everyone's time and go to bed. Thanks again !

It's common to see Corps with names similar to NPC entities. it's often a deliberate attempt to scam although the current terms of service now make such activities borderline bannable:

In-game you can use the agent finder. Look for the nearest agent of any level, or storyline.

I use http://www.ellatha.com/eve/LP-Stores to view what the various NPC corps have available in their LP Store.
