they dont pay credits for those missions, what they give you is access to the black marketeer permanently on that station.

I have the same issue. Very annoying, because I'm still have no access to black market.

I thought I messed up the mission somehow but when I leave to get the items and return there is no one to turn the items into, no bar. Guess its not isolated to me! :)

These missions appear to have a hidden timne limit from when you accept the mission. If you accept it without the items and go get them, by the time you come back the person looking for the items is gone.

Workaround. What i do is see what item they are requesting, then hit escape to check my inventory or go get what they are asking for, then once i have it I select the mission again, accept it , land and give them the items. After this they are permanently available on the station.

I have a pirate base in the same sector the mission spawn in. I can buy the goods needed very fast. So the time limit is not the case. Even if you fly away for a second - marker starting to vanish. It's definitely a bug. I know the trick how to complete this mission (not to mention it require some savescumming), but I want to do it right way.

Is this issue being looked into yet Devs? Some of us have hundreds of thousands of credits worth of illegal goods in our pockets and need to offload it (haven't been lucky enough to find pirate bases yet either despite looking). Frankly this is a game breaking bug and shouldn't exist in a full release. Priority fix please!

The first mention of this bug was about 2 weeks ago (viewtopic.php?f=146&t=402758). Still no fix...

Just so you are aware, even with Access to Black Marketeers, there are three items you cannot sell.

Security Bypass System
Security Decryption System
Security Slicer

Your choices are keep these, Use them(if you can figure out where) or dump them.
