My second thought is something that really already should be in Eve. Let me decice which order to buy from or sell to!
I too want this in the game but for a different reason. This game is all about getting ahead of your enemy. If you KNOW FOR A FACT, your enemy is supplying a particular item and an ally is supplying the same item but for 0.01 or even 500K isk more (Depending on price of item) I want to be able to buy from my ally.
Everyone says Market is PVP even the devs but for PVP you it sure doesn't have any way to limit who you can buy and sell to. I find it very funny that you could literally be suppling the enemy the ships/mods/ammo they use to kill you.
If the Market is PVP then where are my defensive ability? Where are my offensive abilities...
GIVE US the name/corp/alliance listing options for each item listed on the market and give us 100% control over who we buy from.
Lets run this scenario - (Forget my current corp/alliace) Let say I'm in a startup corp, we want to make friends with an alliace. We offer to buy everything we need from the an alliance in exchange we get a little protection or mining/ratting rights in their space. Open up a new way to make an alliance stronger? Doesn't this sound appealing to everyone?
Listing who is selling and who is buying, giving us the ability to deny say 5 corps, 2 alliances and 25 people buying rights (boycot), allow us to buy from a spesific person instead of "the cheapest" and then we'll talk about Market PVP and how cut throat it is. Because at the moment it's nothing more then people exploiting the system for their own gains.
EVE's Market is not PVP, real work market when a vendor can DENY people from buying from them. And the persons choice to buy an item for a more expensive price just because you like or want to support the company selling it, is way more PVP then anything this game and it's market has to offer.

I want to sell a stock in RL stock market for x.xx$ and somebody undercuts me for 0.01$. Do I get the sale? No, he's exploiting the system for his own gains! We need government to change the rules so that my orders are sold first, what ever price i put them up with. This way I can buy stuff for 0.01$ and sell it for 1m$ and nobody can compete with me (since it's against the new laws to compete).
/end sarcasm
You're a little off point and talking about two totally different markets. /no sarcasm
The way I see the "Market" in EVE is like a single listing of many different corporations listing the products they sell and at what price. Very much similar to http://www.pricewatch.com listing many online computer stores in America and their prices.
Yet I'm not going to save myself $1 to buy from Joe's Used and Junk Computer Parts. When I can buy from a known good honorable online store.
The market needs to give us the right to support our alliance Corps, and boycott our enemies. Simple as that.
