Thank you Sindara.  
Strangely enough I can’t find anything in Contracts nor in Notifications. It’s vanished. Maybe it has been revocated?

Maybe it was a direct trade from someone in the same Station as you, that would cause an accept / decline window to pop up but would leave no trace behind in Contracts or Notifications.

> You need 1 SKIN license, which is permanently attached to the character (not account). After activating the SKIN license you only need “switch on” the skin each time you enter that kind of ship in future. The SKIN options are in the ALT-F fitting screen.

You can even change skins in space from the fittings window, as long as you don’t have any target locks on you or your locked on something else.

When you accept a contract items get delivered at the station contract was issued so it’s likely that skins are on a different station than you are. Open your Personal Assets (Safe icon), check each station and you’ll find them.
