I bet they are working on expanding the "rare goods", and what we see is just a hard coded seed set, and there will be procedural generation of rare goods. They will become more widespread but individually rare, so you might still see Lavian Brandy occasionally, but you will also come across Telenisatesian Sentient Peaches, Bd+29 2405ian Frog Spice, or a million other possibilities.

I have an ASP with a 26 light year jump range and you can get all over the place very very fast. But looking at the amount of traffic around the systems that have the rares show something qyite interesting.
It seems that a large amount of people have gravitated back to the Aulin/Styx area where beta was and there has been almost 1000 ships there in the last 24 hours in the news feeds.
The rest of the areas where I have been today such as Toxiandji etc had anywhere from 5-60 ships.
So it looks like that the vast majority of the playerbase is still hanging about the old beta area and not moving too far away.
I had suggested earlier today that perhaps that the rares should be unlocked with "allied" status which would mean more work to get it unlicked to make it worth while.
Guys as this kind of trading requires long trips I recommend ED Heatmap to you. The commander dashboard is a brilliant way of seeing your jumps to back track - saves a lot of writing (and misspelling)

I've managed to finish a very quick trading run between Toxandji and Ethgreze. This time I've used only five stops for the whole trip to test the mathematical model I've used for the other trips. For the curve fitting I've limited the search range for the parameters p3 and p4 according to the fitting parameters of the last three runs and left the first two parameters p1 and p2 unlimited for a full range search.
The model function is capable to describe the distance depencency of rare goods within a very good uncertainty. It's not perfect but it certainly serves my needs. I'm now preparing a new graph containing the fitted curves for all four commodities.

That is Xihe. As I said, it is 178 LY from Toxandji. It is 50ish from Sol and a great pleace for Sidey upgrades, which is how I found it.
thanks for that, FD have changed the way rare commodities work in 1.05 could be because of that
and here's the pic of Ceremonial Heike Tea:
more tea nice
18LY jump range in Type-6 @112T (A|4 FSD)

I guess Klingons will like the Hecate Sea Worms
I found 130 ly distance to be very good for balancing time / fuel / profit (15k as of 3rd december 3300) with a 16 ly jump range and a 4t fuel tank (Cobra).

I think as long as you have an upgraded FSD (and upgraded fuel scoop, optional), then even long jumps shouldn't be a problem.
