Slaves, Imperial Slaves, Platinum, H.E. Suits, Narcotics

Finding these items is almost impossible in my part of the galaxy. I'll go to a station that should have slaves for example (according to the galaxy map) and when I get there...no slaves. Do you need to become friendly or allied with the system before you can buy?

Thanks
 
I'm not sure - if it's illegal in that system you might have trouble? I've notice that I've sometimes been able to buy illegal goods on the open market though .

I'd be more helpful, but honestly I'm here because the topic made me think you were announcing your space rap new album.
 
As far as I know slaves are only found in anarchy systems, and very few of them. I only know of one, in Radegast system.... I think it's waldeck platform from memory (I'm currently at work so can't check).

Narcotics are illegal in most systems, look on the galaxy map for independent systems that don't list narcs as illegal and there's a chance they will sell them.

HE suits are (from memory again) produced by high tech systems.

Platinum is rare but a few refinery systems sell it. Check the trade routes on your map.

Tarach Tor, high population high tech anarchy system. Has most of everything, including Tarach Spice rares. nice place. Try the cheesecake while you're there.
 
Slaves and Narcotics are sold in Anarchy systems.

HE Suits I just found at a pure High tech system.

This is all just a guess. It has to do with legality of items in a system. Just because something is illegal does not mean the planet/station aren't producing them. It just means we can't see it in the trade menu. The AI does not use the trade menu, it trades everything produced. The AI trading is what populates the star map, so you see trade routes we don't have access to.

I've seen Slaves (the illegal kind, not the Imperial kind) for sale at literally every large anarchy station I've landed at, such as Apathamm and Hyperborea. Stations that will actually purchase Slaves through the Commodity board are a bit more... weird. At one point, my "home base" was buying Slaves at a very high unit profit (over 1500 each), I was trucking dozens and dozens of 120-load Slaves to that station for a while.

The weird part is that I'm _pretty_ sure the Slaves didn't appear as sellable on that station's commodity board until I hit Allied with the controlling faction there. Also, the local system authority vessels and the station guns _never_ once shot at me or fined me even though I got scanned every single incoming trip. I'm talking dozens and dozens of illegal cargo loads. At the time, I thought was simply a benefit of being allied with the station's controlling faction. However, the weird part is that one day I logged in and there were no more Slaves sellable at that station despite no other change in my reputation or anything. I'd even get special high-rep "Free the slaves" missions like before, but no more ability to actually sell off the Slave cargo there. No clue what changed or why.
 
Platinum is probably mining only. Some people report seeing them but never actually seen any proof (screenshot), they probably misread Palladium.

Imperial Slaves? Well the Empire has a lot of them, yours truly over here transport 240 of them to their new work location every 10 minutes in a luxury Imperial Clipper VIP ship!
