Artisan Archive

Hi all. I'm a master doc, master cm and pistol specialist and I have a small problem. I want to open a shop so I can sell my meds but I have 4 pts left. So I was wondering if this would work. If I drop enough skills to be able to get buisness 3 and get a vendor and then drop all of artisan to get back to my original set up, will the vender still be there and functioning.

I'm pretty sure that at the moment you retain the vendor once the skill(s) are surrendered - be warned however that the Merchant community is raising hell about people being able to do this (because it makes _staying_ a Merchant redundant) so dont be suprised if this gets fixed at some point (in which case you'll probably lose everything if they dont offer any warning in advance)
