I agree completley. Lost a 10mn Domination AB for 25 mill, because I was 16 jumps away and could not claim buyout. Whoever got - lucky sod! .
We should be able to Bid/Buyout/Claim contracts from any region. Otherwise it is just like a market, little bit suped up, we can see the prices there but cant participate.

no it just makes you get off your arse
No mate, this is not a matter of "getting off one's arse" - it is a matter of the system, which was designed to streamline the escrow, being unintuitive and counterproductive.
The way system is now makes everyone create an ALT specifically to be in Jita and other "Hub" systems. The way it should be is to have global access to contracts, where anyone in any system or region can bid and buy, so long as they have gone into small trouble of searching a particular region.
If "contracts" were globably accesible then there will be no reason for one's ALT to camp a hub system, in essence making people spread out more and cutting down on the significance of Lag Inducing Hubs.

i would like to see NPC haulers jumping gates and transporting stuff, i would like to see pirates being able to take them down, and you can even escort them to keep the transport safe. since players dont seem to be willing to transport things if your not paying them 2x the price of the thing you bought or even more id like to see something like this someday...
i dont like the ideas of instant delivery 
edit: the skillbook changes for regions to claim in sounds needed though 
Instant delivery? I would agree with you that it would be silly. But not being able to Bid/Buy/Claim a public contract just because you are not in the region is pretty bad IMO. Once you got the contract, then you can send an ALT or go there yourself to pick it up, right now it is impossible to claim anything outside of your current regional location. That is the main issue.
