Merchant Archive

Im not a merchant or even an artisian. I was just wondering how you feel about the Galaxy wide vendor search will effect you, now that anyone with a vendor canhave such a large advertising audience.

I would like to add another merchant issue that needs to be addressed.

When an item on a vendor expires, the merchant receives an email stating that the item's auction was unsuccessful. These emails need to contain more information than simply the name of the item. The name of the vendor, region, and planet, for instance, would alsobe extremely helpful.

Forgive me if this has already been mentioned. I did not read every message in this thread.

what about increasing the merchant vendor limit?? Or atleast counting stuff in bags as 1 item rather than a full run ofBE Additives in a bag being 41 (40 crates + 1 for the bag) items...I currently have 3000 as my limit at 4404 Merchant (Most I can get with MBE/M Artisan) and I am always at the cap because of my additives runs in bags taking up sooooo much space...Basically, right now, if I had ONLY BE Additives/BE Tissues on my vendor in factory runs (which I don't), then I could have a MAX of 73 bags...break that down even more to the 3 major types of additives and 5 major types of tissues, that's only 9 runs of each type, which is nothing compared to what I put out on a weekly basis...I could supply my customers with more if I could stock more on my vendors, but due to the low limit, I can't...I also sell swoops in crates (which each swoop gets counted as 1 in the crate, so a crate of 50 is actually 50 items on the count), powerups in crates, repair kits in crates, bulk resources, and various loots...being a merchant with so many various items for sale a 3000 limit is absolutely nothing...

Another suggestion now that Politician has been made 0 points would be doing the same for Merchant, however maybe making it a little more difficult to get the XP, so that not everybody and their momma is a Master Merchant right after the patch, heh...

another thing that I'd like to see is possible a resell/relist button and possible a way to sell multiple items individually at the same price by selecting them all and clicking sell/relist...this would onlybe feasible in the stockroom, however, without any MAJOR changes to the interface...

This is about all I can think of right now, aside from the e-mails for offers that is already posted...a galaxy-wide item search option would be nice as well, however, that's up also...thanks, ttyl...

The new vendor search is bugged. Many of the pages don't refresh with new items when using the galaxy wide search. Page after page has the same item, same price, same location, same location on page, etc. I went through over 10,000 items and this took way too much time and that was just one sub category.

When are they going to revamp the initial categories and sub categories? Put pet stims under pet stims, loot kit items under loot kit items, locked containers under perhaps slicing category, factory crates need to be broken down into sub categories, crystals should be in crystals category, etc.

Master Merchants should have their goods delivered to them from where ever they purchase them. My alt is MM and has zero combat skills and so if I buy something using the new search from some boon dock place on Rori that doesnt have a shuttle, I can't make it there to purchase the item cause I'll be killed! So I need to save the wp and email it to my alt, transfer money to her and then have her go buy everything. Or she could do shopping, but I want the MM profession to have their goods delivered and not have to run around picking things up.

They need to adjust it so items that are 99999999 credits dont show up on the search.

They need to make the screens refresh quickly, so I don't waste time waiting for every page to load.

More of a break down on categories would greatly help.

When relisting an item, you dont have the option to quickly see the previous price and the seller comments. You must use item description to see the old price, and this again is just too slow.

If I have multiple items and want to relist at same price, I would like to use Control Select for the items and then hit one button like Ebay, to relist them.

I'm at my vendor limit and have 4 houses and tent, bank, droids, alt allfilled with inventory I cant put on and more always coming every day.

Make it possible for mounts like Bantha to be hired to transport vendors or containers that hold like 100 items. The CH would be happy to get extra money to do this and vendors would have easier way to move inventory should they have to move their vendor.
