This topic is of particular interest for me because I see it from both sides. On bria, I am a master arch/artisan 3/0/2/3 merchant and the change will not impact my char in the least. 5 vendors is ample for my wears and advertising is always a must. However, on Sunrunner I play a holo grinder and took advantage of the bug when I did my merchant grind. I did not keep all my vendors and advertise them, I only kept a bulk vendor that is not registered on the map. I felt that this was a way for me to sell my loot and resources and not compete directly with the merchants. I rely strictly on word of mouth and a stocked vendor (2200 items currently.) I know that there are many people that haveitems to sell that either can't deal with the 6k cap on the bazaar or simply have too many to cycle through them at 25 items max. I do not think it is fair for merchants to compete againstnon merchantsfor sales so I only propose that a considerationbe made for non merchants to have a bulk vendor that they can not advertise.
