Since I started playing again recently and getting back into the swing of the game the thought once again occured to me that QM should have some kind of access to a black market trader.

Usually the ideas are tantamount to having an emag or something like that, but instead I think it'd be better if the trader was always there, but if you tried to deal with him as a non antag he tells you to eat shit and refuses to sell to you. Only if you are a traitor will he be all "Hey buddy, what can I do for ya?" Anything you order through him is then sent discreetly to you by appearing as a cardlocked crate; however, the only type of card that can open it is an Agent card. The Black Market trader sells some, if not all, of the things you can normally get through telecrystals, some things you can only find in surplus crates or through the debris field, and also some special items you can only get through him. He also will buy items, and rather than send the money to the station budget he'll pay you with a crate full of cash for the value of whatever you hock. Captain and HOP stuff is always welcome.
