Apologies if this is clearly addressed somewhere.
Is there any way of setting up a buy order that can only be filled by a corp member? For example, I want to buy minerals from corp miners at a good rate so they'll sell corp the mins, make some money themselves and everyone is happy. I'd rather corp members fill these attractive orders than some random person. I could have them individually transfer the minerals and transfer them the money but thats a right PITA.
I thought there would be a way of doing it with the new contracts systems and ability to make contracts corp only but can't see a way. Is this possible?

I haven't tried with the improved contracts after today's patch (still at work), but it was quite possible before.
You setup an "Item Exchange" contract. Select it to restrict to "My Corporation". Furthermore, tick the "On behalf of Corporation" checkbox.
Click Next. On this screen don't do anything besides selecting the station where you want to receive it. Click next.
Now enter the "Will pay" amount for the batch. And below, select the minerals under "items required" section (i am taking names from memory) and enter the amount.
The problem is, this will be a "batch" order, so people will need to bring that exact quantity for exchange. Thus, you will need to create a lot of this smaller "batch orders". Shouldn't be a problem considering you get like 500 contracts when it is restricted to corp
p.s. i am recalling the contract screen from memory, so some terms may be different in-game, but i am sure you can figure it out.

I just suggest to let them keep the ore or the minerals depends on if you have someone to refine it for you and then just a simple trade, I mean you could use the contract system but trades have been and will allways be a simple and easy way to go, unless your very inactive and well depends how many directors you have etc trades could be hard to handle in lets say 500 man corp but if your around 30 ish or less it shouldnŠt be all that much of a prblem if you log on once a day or so =)

Cant you send out a corpmail with fixed rates for the minerals and then have the corpmembers escrow (should i say contract now?) the minerals to you?

Yeah, having them contract the minerals at previously agreed prices is the best option. It is not perfect as I can't just set a buy order and let it run, but have to monitor what volume of contracts are outstanding or I end up buying disproportinate amounts of one mineral. However it works well enough.

i wish there was a better market option. the possebility to build/sell for corp/alliance and also have the public market.
this would be so nice for corps that produce ships and modules and then sells them for a better price to corp. insteed of having a system where you need to order and then get someone to escrow or pick it up in a corp hangar etc.

1.) Conquer a station/build an outpost
2.) Restrict docking to only your corp
3.) Set up station-only buy orders

well ofcourse, but that would then be an option for alliances only who have the isk and manpower to run a station/outpost.
i am talking about the hole market and an option for all corps that ar building and producing for there members.
