I have a couple of ideas, so here goes nothing.
For rich philanthropists, why not station upgrades? Stuff like faster cloners, a better mining magnet, QM orderable command teleporters, deployable furniture that can't otherwise be reproduces (Ie comfy chairs, couches, etc.), as well as stuff like the kitchen equipment that maybe you don't have the access to go scan. All of which come in the form of electrician deployable boxes and come with a soldering iron so that anyone can buy and deploy em.
For sports pod enthusiasts, a vendor or something that sells souped up pods. They would probably have pretty good components and otherwise unattainable paint jobs. For the buyer that can't be bothered to go and find all the good pod parts or who wants to have a cool looking pod, all sold at really high mark ups, of course.
For when the engine is torn down, destroyed or unstaffed, a laser input device, buying device. That way you can buy enough power to keep the station going when other methods are exhausted.
And lastly for fun the whole crew can get in on, some kind of auction house. Have a console in the market, or have the auction be accessible by ATMs. Have items on sale every 20 minutes or so. Items could range from something insubstantial like a golden wrench, to something cool like a voltron/batman costume. An announcement could be made when the auction begins over either the radio, intercom, or command alert thing, and then people could try to outbid one another. Starting bids would be relatively high.
