Why not have a station service that allows auctions? Only in certain systems of course (with high-load servers hehe). It could be just like WoW's AH - no-one gets to know the exact end-time (only "within the next hour" or something similarly vague to help synch issues).
Modules bpc's and ships could be sold on it, perhaps with multi-item packages (something WoW is missing imo - imagine the profit if you could sell a whole matching "set" at once).
For all I know this is in the upcoming contract system, but hey - if it isn't, is should be

there are already auctions on the forums so i doubt that it would be a priority to put this directly in-game

AH's like in Wow will cause unneccesary stress on the system where it is located.
Simply merging an auction service with escrow = preferable (my opinion is that replacing escrow with an auction system would be much better).

Agreed. Escrow sucks compared to the Auction House in WoW. Though I really wouldnt like Yulai to lag like Iron Forge does

Replacing the existing Escrow system with an Auction System would be best.
The Marketing skill that allows people to not have to put up money for escrow would work the same, but for this auction system instead.
The auction should have:
1. Minimum bid
2. Bid increment
3. Duration of Auction (9 days max?)
4. Any restrictions to corps or alliances (perhaps have an option to only allow people/corps/alliances with a 0.0+ standing with you/your corp or alliance).
5. Range
Am I missing anything?

Sniper rule is often used in auctions. Reserve price.. I never could figure out what this one is about. Also restricting auctions will do little, since you can always bid with alts, might as well not lose the time to code it.
