Because you asked nicely, I'm not going to say a word about the "Master Artisan" and his vendor.....


Instead, a vendor works just like the bazaar for the most part. You place an item for sale on the vendor and people access it to buy the stuff you put on it. The differences are....:


1) You pay maintenance on the vendor just like you would for a harvester or your house.


2) You

1) You pay maintenance on the vendor just like you would for a harvester or your house. You don't pay a fee per item...yet.


2) You have to have a house to place a vendor. On the radial menu for the House datapad is a tab for create vendor. Once created, you place it by dropping it from your inventory somewhere in your house. Once you have it placed just so, you initialize it. Once initialized, you can't move it.


3) There is a Storeroom. This is where items that don't sell go after 7 days. It is just like the "Available items" tab on the Bazaar. Do NOT use this to cheat the "items per house" rule, as items left here tend to disappear...


4) The addition of an "Offers" tab. Here, people can use your vendor to offer to sell you something. I like this option because it allows me to be elsewhere when my suppliers have things ready to sell to me and allows me to purchase them when I have the available credits, plus we don't have that nasty 5% bank transaction fee to worry about.


Any specific questions now?

Can any CH put up pets lvl 15 and below on a vendor or the bazaar? Can I drop off some pets on a local artisans' vendor for him to sell? If so, do I gain storage when the pet is on the vendor?

Now that I have my vendors in place, do I need to maintain Business 3 Skill to continue using it ?

Or can I drop the Business3 skill to free up Skill Points & continue to use the vendor ?

nope if you drop the vendor skillyou lose ownership of it and therefore the ability to commands its functions.


It eventually runs out of maintenance and stops functioning all together.


If you want to keep your vendor you cant give up the skill.

I just got the euro release of the game and in beta if you listed items on your vendor they showed up on the bazaar, 1 at a time, I just got business 3 and put a load of stuff on my vendor but nothing is listing in the local bazaar. Was this changed? And if so, what is the advantage to having a vendor?

They do not show on bazaar. You can list items for more than 3k and you can sell more than 25 items.

No. I hardly ever use Ad3. It is a pain right now with having to relist. I get most of my sales through repeat customers. I also send emails with waypoint to all my bazaar sales. I also send out sales letters every so often. I make about 100k a day without using Ad3.

I dont like spamming random people. I get annoyed if people do it to me so I dont do it to others.
