They update their goods from time to time.

I'm curious, do they update when merchants dock? I could have sworn I saw new stuff appear after a merchant ship docked.

That might be a good idea, have special restock merchants spawn every now and then. If you want to get new stock, you have to make sure they get tot he station alive ;)

I can't tell you how happy I am to hear that. I made mental mark some time ago where a deathbringer could be purchased and when I went back there, none was to be found, so I went back and visited every station I had ever stopped at and there were no deathbringers. I started doubting myself "Did I really see one?". Felt a bit crazy.

(I ended up flying like 20 systems away into crazy-take-your-shields-down-in-one-shot systems to find one)

I'd be curious what "time-to-time" equates to in actual flying time terms.

Haha :)
You didn't imagine this one for sure. A really good ship I must say, grab one ASAP!

I could be wrong on this, but I remember it being 5 minutes. But don't quote me on that :)
