Seeker Droids vendor not initialized???
I have a vendor right near Coronet. It had approximately 10 crates of Seeker Droids on it, and a Surgical Droid with 10 item storage. I ran by it yesterday and tried to use the vendor - "This Vendor has not been initialized." But it's been active for at least a month now!
I didn't touch the stupid thing after seeing that. Has anyone else had this? Do I want to initialize it? Will it wipe out my items? Is all my maintenance gone?
Can anyone suggest how to proceed on this...I'm really really glad this happened to my Seeker Droid vendor, not my main droid vendor.
I can't believe the quality of this Publish, what a mess. This is seriously ridiculous.
Anyone have any ideas?

Master Merchant
All vendors listed on the map like they should be, and it looks like the planetary map(on Corellia at least) is back to normal.

Servers are down already for patching, 4 hours earlier than usual. In the patch notes are:
Profession: Merchant
Fixed problem with registered vendors and some cities not showing up on the planetary map.
Items should now stay in the stockroom for 30 days.
When storing backpacks on vendors, the items inside the backpack will count as one item, but the backpack itself will NOT be counted against the item limit. An empty backpack will count as 1 item.

Naritus, Master Merchant (for months), have 6 vendors, item total below 1000, no more than 300 on one vendor
CANT DO ANYTHING on my existing vendors. No selling, no relisting items from storeroom, cant make 6 more vendors to reach my limit of 12 vendors.
Message:
"You have more vendors than you can manage. You must either gain sufficient skill to manage the vendors you have or remove one or more vendors before being able to place items for sale."
(Statistical info .. 2 vendors in a PA hall ... I see them on overhead map .. have not checked planetary map yet .... 4 vendors in large Tatooine house .. have not checked yet if the are on overhead map and/or planetary map).
I send in a ticket with URGENT on top of it, because I was on vacation over weekend and some of my items in storeroom now approach the 7 day limit and are in danger of being deleted (millions of resources). If its true that storeroom now is 30 days, then its not as urgent as it seems now, if you dont count the fact that I cannot BE a merchant ATM and I have NO room to store 1000 items while I recreate all my vendors.
Bug is not game breaking, but profession-breaking. HIGH PRIORITY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have fun

Well last night I couldn't post items, and I went home for lunch today and was able to post.. so whatever the problem was, it appears to be fixed.

Me too. Everything seems normal (/knockonwood). I put down new vendors over the old limit of 6, the are on the Planetary map, I can add, remove, and retrieve. I can pay and withdraw maint. Crisis past?

I was moving vendors around last night, and selected "Status" to see how much maintenance was left in a vendor. It showed 2682 CR. I selected "withdraw" and entered in 2682, and the game refused. Went back to status, and the current maint was in the mid-1900 range. Other vendors did not do that, but I had checked inventory on the other vendors, first. For this one, I went straight to the "Status" screen.
It looks lik the UI is not updating immediately - it updates to the current number *after* if displays information to the user, not before. It is possible that this is not a patch 10 bug, either.

Is anyone still getting the "Too Many Vendors Error?" (Goes without saying that you actually don't have too many!)

I was able to make a new vendor. Up to my current and proper and legal limit of 10. 
Seems to be fixed?
Seems to be fixed?I have a Master Merchant on Intrepid. I suffered none of the too many vendors or inability to list items problems on that char. However, my new Merchant on Gorath did have the too many vendors bug on Wednesday. I had just trained in Hiring 3 and wanted to take down one of my old vendors and replace it with a new one. I had 10 vendors and all the required skills to have 10 vendors. I removed one, then when I went to create the new replacement, I got the message I had too many vendors. But as of yesterday, Thursday, I was able to make the new vendor.

Not anymore. Patch seems to have repaired that.

It all seems to be working for me now. Since the Chimaera server reboot I've had to visit each of my vendors for them to appear on the map.
The number of vendors on the map has reduced by probably 20-30%, but like mine there could still be many more awaiting a visit before they appear.

Arrgh! Logged on this morning (11:30 am here in the UK) and once again, I am getting the too many vendors, too little skill error message when trying to put items up for sale. It was fine yesterday 
Oh well, at least my vendors are still on the map.
