Hi,

I've made an alt to haul items to null for my main, and I was wondering how profitable it would be to haul lots of items from high sec to low sec to sell at an NPC station. And if so, what should I haul? It will need to be small stuff at first, so maybe ammo? Then ships? I don't know. I've got a long history of high-sec mission-running, and I'm trying to branch out.

Does this seem like a good use for this alt, or is there something else that would make more sense?

Thanks in advance.

Look at the stuff you're going to Empire to buy and see if it makes sense to buy more of it (and similar items) to haul back and sell. It's a good idea to make the return trip profitable if there are things you can acquire in Null to sell in Empire.

Is your hauling alt going to sit in the hub? If so, he can also engage in station trading to learn more about what sells.

It really comes down to whether you enjoy those types of in-game activities.
