Merchant Archive

Bumping for a fix, also if you haven't noticed the bugged items take up sale slots in the regulor bazaar. Or for atleast me they do.

This is partially a bump, since retrieving items from deleted vendor limbo is not possible directly, and partially a confirmation that Imperfex's workaround does, indeed, work.

Unfortunately if I re-sell an item from vendor limbo and then withdraw the item, it apparently goes right back into vendor limbo, since I still can't retrieve it from the stockroom.

Devs, this is only one of many issues with Businessman/Merchant, and it absoultely amazes me that some of this stuff is broken. For instance, how is it that the game was marked as "shippable" when Business II (premium auctions) simply does not work? That's a second level skill in a starting profession. Players were finding out that it was broken the day of release. Wait. I take that back. The day of release, no one was able to play. But you get my point...

I hate it when people go after the developers. It's not they're fault they released the game too soon. It's those corp baffoons at SOE that probably forced the deployment. I'd be willing to bet a few body parts I am most fond of that all the devs where telling the execs that it ain't ready. Other than defending the devs, bump!!!

All right, I'll submit. You're probably right that it's not the devs fault, and I was probably hasty to point the finger at them. That said, it doesn't change the fact that some very low-level content is quite simply not working.

What frustrates me most is that I can see how completely great this game could be if it weren't for its many flaws that I'm concerned won't be fixed before we have to start paying a monthly fee. But that's another discussion.

Sorry devs, I was just lashing out. Also, bump.

I'm pretty sure if you try to resell it the buyer will get stuck in the limbo then making for an unsatisfied customer which is never a good thing.

I got a response to my ticket today saying they will reimburse, but how do they determine the worth of what was lost? I had tons of resources, quite a few items, and a bunch of furnituer from a supplier lost as a result of both /delete create vendor and missing status on the radial menu and watching another vendor poof into thin air. Do they planning on giving us the retail price we had listed?

Also when you put the item up for sale, it doesnt show up on the new vendor, it shows up on the region screen. I dont know if the customer can see it, will be checking with friend later, but I seriously doubt anyone is able to retrieve the item.

Keep us informed. I too doubt that the item can be retrieved. I can relist the items from my second vendor and they only show up on reginal because they are on that Ghost Vendor. When they are bought the Vendor will direct them to that Ghost Vendor to retrive the item, so this is not a fix at all. In fact my items were still up for sale on the regional screen. I had to take them down because people could not retrieve them.

Maybe we should call a Paranormal Investigator?

Wow, I actually got reimbursed today for my items in limbo. Was told they are working on the
problem, but no idea of when a fix will happen.

I still got nodda.. items still in limbo.. hope they don't reimburse you what they were listed for because mine were listed for sale to people in my guild.. grr

Well im happy to know im not the only one with this problem i lost 68 droids averageing at about 10k each that is 680,000 Credits ive LOST due to them nto being sold and i know they would have all been sold

*bump*

I haven't lost as much as some of you, but it was enough to make me go broke. I depend on the income from my vendor to feed my harvesters, house, and the vendor itself, and right now I am wondering if I am going to have to start destroying them or just let them go way into decay (which will take me even further into poverty). *sigh*

please help, I got the same problem.. 500k+ items just gone in 1 sec.. I tend to regiest my vandor... accidently click on remove.. there was no confirm msg.. help!!
