that's odd...

Only reason I can think of, maybe you're playing in strict mode and the ships for sale have addons that you can't have? though I'd think that's not possible either...

Do you have a passenger in a passanger cabin on your current ship?

Not sure but I would guess you cannot sell you current ship until you've dropped the guy off.
