I've seen convoys of NPC haulers/traders in high sec, can I blast these without being Concorded into oblivian?

Yep, you don't get concorded as long as you're using a faction cruiser/BS. Weird-ass rule I know, but for some reason that's how it goes. HYRDA WILL PROVAIL |

Yes you can blow them up without concord getting involved. You can gank them just outside the station without concord blinking an eye, even if they are on grid.
So go forth and lay waste. They drop a relatively large amount of stuff (in volume) and have relatively weak offensive capabilities, so a battleship or battlecruiser with cargohold expanders should be sufficient to beat them into wrecks and collect all the goodness solo.
You can get an idea of what they might drop by checking out the corporation on the wiki that the convoy is coming from. The wiki tells you what goods the corporation produces, and they will typically have that kind of stuff on board. --

Hello Mr Conner,
First you have to figure out if the convoy coming out of the station belongs to the corporation that owns the station. If not, you are free to attack. If they do, you can attack as well, but station sentries will fire on you.
Not sure how much it has changed since I used to pop them... It was a nice money maker when I was starting out, but looking back now, you really don't get much from it.
Hope that helps.

Reading what had been posted makes Goonswarm look like intelligent, cultured, well-mannered individuals.
As far as I know, the information above from Zedrick is correct. They generally drop trade goods, nothing really valuable. I believe that you take standings hits to the corporation whose hauler you pop as well, so try to make sure that it isn't a corporation for whom you run missions.

Here's a tip:
Don't attack the transport at station A (belonging to NPC corp X), instead, follow and kill the transport at station B (belonging to NPC corp Y).
This saves you a lot of trouble. _____________
