- You can now sell items from the item interface, you receive instant credits depending on CHOAM market value for the items
- You can now cancel active items that have not been used, click on active items then click cancel
- CHOAM is the only dealer of items, other commanders can bid on the items they need
- CHOAM only sells items it got from commanders, so if you see an item sold, it's coming from an encryption mission someone did
- When selling items in bulk, e.g. 10 items of same type, you will get the market value for all of them, however when CHOAM is selling it will offer bulk discounts. Bulk discount is 2% for every item in that batch, so if you see 10 runs of an item, you can only bid on all of them, however you have a discount of 2%*10 = 20% of the whole batch. Maximum discount is 50%.
- Depending on the price the auctions ended, items market value can increase / decrease in time, so a good item should allways be worth more an more, while a bad one would be worth less and less
- To bid on an item, use the market and place your bids, an item that wasn't bid on will remain in the market for 150 minutes until it expires or someone has bid on it

God Speed commanders!

- Whenever an item is not sold, it's market value will drop by 0.2% for each item not sold
- If an item is bought, the market value will rise by 0.2% for each item bought

What does this mean? Well, it means a certain number of items will be sold until they no longer profitable to be sold and they will start to be bought 1 This could lead to some interesting buy low sell higher strategies of merchantes, and items stabilizing at their real value for commanders, or at least will give newbie commanders some really cheap items they can use, e.g. mining time and warp travel...

We should start seeing the effects of this in a few days   read  19
