Okay, so I really, really, really am totally annoyed by this ridiculous bug. If this comes across as a whine, I do really do not care, I love this game and that is exactly why stuff like this annoys me so much! Okay, so for the past God knows how many years it is since I finished Frontier First Encounters, I have really, really wanted to join the Imperial Navy in a sequel to the majestic game. This game is every bit as majestic, but I cannot get over how annoying this bug is... So I get a rare opportunity to go on a naval advancement mission, the one where you have to source combat stablisers, the last one was personal weapons. So, naturally I check which system and station exports them by spending 20 minutes pouring over the map, then jump God-knows-how-many lightyears to said station where they are both legal and listed as a major export... Except, there not even on the commodities list, let alone with a low supply or simply sold out, they are not even there! URGHHH!!!! So naturally I run down the timer jumping from dictatorship to dictatorship trying to find them but no joy! The timer runs out and I get a rep decrease through no fault of my own.... This is the second time this has happened to me, the last time was with personal weapons where the exact same thing happened... Sigh...
Major export resources not listed, let alone exported!

you may notice if u buy up all the supply of an item at a station, or sell to 0 demand that it actually vanishes until its in resupply ( supply and demand refresh over time) my suggestion, stay docked for 20 minutes and then recheck the market info and they should reappear.
It will be good when solar systems expand, new stations get build in existing systems and well u could always jus shoot some traders at USS sites in empty systems until combat stabilisers drop, thats what i do instead of travelling 30 jumps from the mikunn area. Heck sometimes they just are floating around at random USS
I just wish we had the option of a cargo hanger ala eve online where we could store cargo and cme back to it later ( perhaps for a storage fee) in a central location. Then again ppl could just pile stuff up which would break the markes so maybe not

Like with the bulletin board right? Yeah, I figured that too, and put it to the test to boot... Guess what? After checking back every 4 mins for an hour, on both occaisions, no joy!
Multiple stations , best thing is to go into system view and look at the station info, and remember the export/import info is from npc trading history.
