well this was strange.. selling stolen LTD put the price up on blackmarket and legal market.. not down..

It should have dropped the price and demand or is it because it just happened to be on the exact time the market was due a rise... on both..

Presumably price before = with bulk tax ; price after = without bulk tax.
Dont think so. nope, cargo value zero legal as shown in pic and 192 stolen is lower than 25% of demand for LTD value
Hence zero to sell legal as there stolen and demand value is way higher than 1000 units which excluded the tax trigger..

I've seen the tax take effect at much lower quantities than 25% of demand, and 8% tax looks about right for the proportion of demand you were carrying.

Presumably it applies the tax to the normal market based on the total value of cargo carried whether or not you can sell it there, then takes 25% off that for the black market price.

More of a surprise is that the black market sale's effect on demand appears to have disappeared in your later screenshot. It doesn't look like the regeneration bug is back for LTDs ... is the black market sale not counting against demand correctly?

LTD has a proven >25% of demand must be in the cargo rack every time to start the sales tax fee and python only carries 192 and up hence the ma cargo rack being 192 in these
Every single sale of, painite, LTD and VO thats under 25% never gets hit with sales tax fee... Ive got nearly over 15 sales pic on twitter that show that and the reddit miners have many more... which upsets tritium users as its not classed as mining only so getting hit sooner at 4%,..

The demand going back Up is what the Pirates from Reddit is testing as Fdev never actually stated that the black market should be effected only miners... What was not expected is any reason for the price to go up.. So had to ask here...
Yesterdays tests were messed up by the stations being popular so the price and demand just dropped all the time...

It would really help if the UI showed which is the base price and how much tax or modifiers are affecting it.
Yea FC needed...
Start with zero cargo on Python for base line...
Then fill up with stolen LTD...
Then check both markets...
Then sell a few tons
and then compair market with market 10 -12 mins after sale... post result... If market drops more than what you sold then some one else likely sold on market so result may be false.
Repeat untill stolen LTD expired...
 
OK they use different sales tax value for Stolen goods they don't use the same value as clean goods value...

Can confirm now that stolen LTD items have unlimited demand regen from before the FC update still... but any clean market sale will drop base price and demand,
when selling 10 at a time..

I haven't dealt with LTD or Black Markets but this seems to happen with any trade. It drives me crazy because no price data is ever accurate since it varies slightly with any amount you have in your cargo hold, unless it's some insanely high 6+ digits demand.
