== Requirements ==

*[[/Specs|Requirements and Specifications]]
* Clients shall have the ability to request broker contracts for the purchase, sale, or transport of items at any time using the same information available using the in-station contract system
 
* Items shall be secured such that only broker staff and the intended user have access to them

== Use Cases ==

* Client requests to sell an item or items for market price ("loot conversion")
+
*[[/Scratch/Wormholes|Wormholes working page]]
* Client requests to purchase an item or items for the market rate plus the negotiated fee
 
* Client requests hauling of an item or items (can use a 0 isk contract to accomplish this)
 
 
 
== Considerations, Risks, and Thoughts ==
 
* The the number of GSCs that a staff broker can anchor will limit the number of simultaneous in-flight transactions.  This means that there must be a limit on the amount of time that a client can claim an item from a can
 
* Passwords for cans will have to be shared among all staff brokers
 
* Passwords for cans will have to be shared with each client for the duration of an exchange transaction
 
* Broker staff can use spreadsheets to track requests; however, WHC can make requests via mail
 
* Clients can probably use well-known EVE market sites plus a fixed percentage to provide escrow ISK for goods.  One issue will be the risk involved in seeking the low price vs the inconvenience of the current HS static
 
* Broker staff should have a fair amount of trade skills (Accounting, Broker Relations, standing increasing skills, etc)
