You mean like... a crate of metal? Cargo can already order that and mail it to Robo.

Sure, if robotics literally never leaves their lab and never see any of the stacks of metal sheets in cargo or laying around elsewhere on the station.

You mean the stacks that always get taken by engineers, drones, assistants, and cargo techs?

And Cargo is usually too lazy/greedy to order more metal. (I know there are exceptions.. but..)
And for the miners, it's just too damn BORING to mine regular metal.

Almost the only time you'll see a 'healthy' amount of metal in the machine? When there's a mining borg.

Son, if you're having your metal stolen by drones as a roboticist you've got nobody to blame but yourself.

Bomber jackets and leather jackets.

Clothing options in general, I think, would be nice. Shades, hats, and the like that don't necessarily come in the Auto-Drobe.

200 points for 3 hats is not really an attractive bargain, especially when its contents are random. I'm talking about reliable, maybe slightly less expensive clothing options. Leather and bomber jackets are a start, what about the winter jackets from NT? Or maybe alternate jumpsuit options, like the blue sec outfits, but for other departments?

Holiday crates that are only available at certain times of the year would be neat. Like for Christmas you could order a crate with a santa outfit. Maybe have a decorations crate with tinsel, fake snow spray bottles, snow globes, mini-Xmas trees etc.
