Thread: Has any dev DONE this?
Very good post !

To start out, I amonly a part-time merchant. But I totally agree with almost eveything in this post. Very straightforward as to the problems with the class.
As for these points:
2) When you DO take an item off-sale, why are you getting an email? YOU know you took it off cause you just did it.
3) You do, however, notice an item isn't selling. Why can't you click on it and reset its price without having to send it to the stockroom first?
I dont think these need to be merchant specific, they would be really nice for those of us that sell at the bazaar as well.
The point I do disagree with is this:
11) If you've played this game for 8 days, you'd realize you want the ability to do this: Take an item from a supplier WITHOUT paying him, but agree the supplier gets a percentage of the sale price. If the item doesn't sell in a week (say) the item goes back to the supplier's inventory. Maybe this would need a high merchant skill box to be available as an option.
There isnt a logical solution to where to put the item if the suppliers inventory is full. Also part of the benefit of using a merchant, at least for me as a weaponsmith is letting the merchants worry about price fluctuations and such, I am not a merchant because I dont really want this to be something I deal with, and I sure as heck dont want the stuff back. The merchant should buy accordingly, if it doesnt sell it shouldnt be the suppliers problem.
Other than that, like I said good post.
