Some starports offer a black market. This is additional to the Commodities Market and is the only place where stolen goods and/or illegal goods can be traded.
The black market can be found in the contacts menu of starport services, but only where it is available – not every starport supports black market trade. To find out whether specific station has the black market, open system map, select the station and check if Black Market is listed under the Facilities entry.
Prices on the black market can vary greatly, depending on the goods and system.
Carrying stolen goods and/or illegal goods can be a dangerous pastime. Authorities, and other players, will often scan the cargo of ships to see if they are carrying any stolen and/or illegal goods. Being cargo scanned whilst carrying such items may incur a bounty, or a fine from the starport authorities.
