I found I had over a hundred small jump jets. A "Sell All" button would really be nice.

And why is there a pop to get a count to sell anyway? Can't that be done on the same screen right below the description text (the right side of the screen)?

Personally, I wish you could just hold down the mouse button and have the count increase. It's a royal pain clicking 200 times to sell all those extra heat sinks that Yang keeps stockpiling outside the zero-G pool.

How about if you could just click on the items in your mechbay and set the required number to auto sell down to after every mission.
Then you could set JJs and Medium Lasers to 20 and forget about it!
Or even just a single adjustable global maximum and auto sell for all items so you could for example never accumulate more than 50 of any item.

I like the idea, but with reputation influencing prices, too much potential for people to end up 'auto selling' at a less than ideal price due to the fact that you hit your threshold on a planet you're not very welcome at.

I DO like the idea tho, just don't see it being practically employable for every gaming instance for every gamer. The other suggestions (+10 buttons, editable integer field etc) work for everyone, without being a negative impact (potentially)

Why? because you KNOW someone somewhere will get to that situation where just 33k more c-bills was the difference between getting that gauss rifle from the black market or not but since they at system X the prices were Y so they couldn't make enough $ to get the shiny.

I believe selling is not influenced by reputation, only buying.

Having the option to type in the number you want to sell should definitely be in the game.

There is a point where you realized just how much stuff you've accumulated, and clicking up to sell 75 medium lasers is asinine.

I also wouldn't mind seeing a way to buy multiples when available. Can't tell you the number of times in the pirate rep campaign that I needed to buy JumpJets/HeatSinks/Small or Medium Lasers :p ... that was a rough campaign...
