Replenishment of commodity items in the stations?
How frequently are the replenishment of commodity items in the stations?

For example, Lave or Leesti rare speciality (Yellow) items. How long would they take?

Are there many systems with "rare speciality" (Yellow) items about? is there a list? I presume this is static due to being "cultural in the game lore" or something.

Amount of rare goods at each station are locked to individual players.

Meaning: You are allocated a certain amount per station (or type of goods) and each has an maximum amount that you can have available. Cargo in your hold counts towards this total too. The total tonnage varies per item.

The goods will not reapawn past that point until you sell or otherwise loose the cargo.

So even If I wait 24 hours, no change?

The amount will increase to the maximum limit for that item, and then stay static. Unless you buy them and sell elsewhere. Leave the area and the amount will reset, but never increase past the set limit for that item.

Google 'Rare Trading'.

Found this.. it's a start though. Doesn't seem to be many of rare trading items about then if that is just the list or are there far more?

Thats just one players example of a trade circuit of stations.
Interesting, I logged out last night, relogged in, and the rare items have replenished. I still have them in my cargo.
