I have never found INARA to be incorrect in this. The OP's EDDB links on the other hand are not reliable since EDDB doesn't "lock" the search result to the pertinent economy type in multi-economy stations.
Unfortunately people necroing inaccurate threads does not help.
Personally I use Inara, and don't sort by "nearest" but by distance from star. It makes absolutely no difference if the jump is 8ly or 40(*), but it makes a lot of difference (to me) whether I have to fly in system 16ls or 4000.
*) I always use my Phantom to gather or trade mats or visit engineers, refitting modules from my other ships as required.

"Nearest" is the prerequisite condition in the left INARA panel,then you check the category in the Upper bar,and you will be presented with a comprehensive list that you can sort in many ways: Trader type/Station/Star System/Economy/Government/Allegiance/Distance form star/ligh years Distance from where you are
If you limit to Medium ships yes,try to fit a Huge hardpoint or a 7/8 Shield or some other 8 Core stuff in your Phantom
However @Kayvan said they don't "sort by" - so your initial remark in reply is not only inaccurate it is invalidated by your last words where you also say you can "sort by" various criterea.
We have the years (2016-2020) and simulating a world of 3300, and still we need such humble heros to give us hints, which should be implemented in simulations.
Well I have a bad feeling for the ones in 3300; hope they get also such humble souls to post the hard thing the simple way in the future forums !!!
Thanks Commander Jigster !
To be honest the method suggested is the least optimal,use INARA for those tsasks you'll thank me later
I hate INARA, so overwhelming for so few information.To be honest the method suggested is the least optimal,use INARA for those tsasks you'll thank me later
No yours with EDDB is the best ):>
As we have pointed-out EDDB does not discriminate as to the type of material trader and often if the station has a mixed economy you turn up expecting one type of material trader only to find another type - hence my (and others') preference for the INARA search results. Your choice.
I can't even....
I will need to utter a very flimsy and unconvincing blaze your own. sputter, wheeze, blech....
Oh look at that I managed it despite my astonishment
Good luck with that.
eddb is good for many things. finding traders is not one of them.
Please define "so few information", what is missing to you there? Not trolling, just looking for a feedback.
Overwhelming? Simply select "Nearest" whatever kind of Mat trader or else you need and in a second you have it all
Hi,Please define "so few information", what is missing to you there? Not trolling, just looking for a feedback.
it is the way it is build.
So many clicky fields not needed, or could be automated.
Before I find an information it it, i can find it in google.
Don't misunderstand: A GREAT WORK behind it, but as I am a 1st-2nd Level Supporter (and can understand costumers when they say, "What do the programmer want me to do to get my work done, it should be the other way!" , I can tell you: made by pure Databaser/pgorammer for public, not going to work well!
It is not comfortable to catch me, so I LOSE time to find something there <- THIS should not be the SUM of great works, so it seems the great work lakes something to win me, maybe some others like me too.
Hope you get the point.
Ah, so it's not about a lack of information, but about getting it. I see. In fact, I made some improvements in that regard in the past few weeks and I am planning to do few more in the following days, but as Inara is quite loaded with the content, there always need to be some compromises made (but, well, there are at least customizable one-click shortcuts to get into the respective places fast). So maybe you will find it more useful to yourself later, after additional changes made.
Either way, thanks for the feedback!

Hello Arti,
the least I could do to give my opinion.
And sorry when I am so rude in my opinion, as you may understand, after so much time in support, you get cynical, sarcastic and fatalistic, specially when I am in line to get the customer and do not become what I expect....
No offense in all your great works as Databasers and Programmers.
Sadly the GUI-Desinger is still not a "must" in the IT.
And between us: who cares what the supporters says?
Regards
No problem, when the feedback has a point like yours, it's always useful. Actually, I've learnt many many years ago that the feedback testers/supporters/etc. are providing is valuable and should be never underestimated. But, yeah, I had also the attitude like "what they do know about it" before, it's somehow more comfortable...Hello Arti,
