That might work until they ban you. But I don't see why people would get upset about it. People put stuff on a vendor to sell it. You're a guaranteed sale - if you buy all that they have, they'll just make more at the same price. Everyone wins...
Seems like a lot of work for little profit though...
Tell that to the 2 muppets on Gorath that moaned at me for doing such a thing with their products. One threaten to ban me from the shop, but it turned out it wasn't his shop he was just renting space 
, oh and he threatened to report me for playergriefing You had stuff on your vendor, it sold, how exactly is that player griefing? Muppet.and the other muppets banned me from their mall, it was a Jedi that came up and starting whining at me , speaking in German knowing I did understand him, as if thats suppose to offend me. I can't understand what your saying so how the F isit going to offend me. I was selling their BHerbomb droids on at a profit. Funny thing is, I just use my alt to go in and buy their stock now and noticed they raised the price of their bomb droids to match what I was selling them for oh and I use a friend to go in there to. So in effect, they will have to ban EVERYONE that buys anything from their vendors.

Maybe it could be a smuggler abiliby!
I believe this already exists....just look up SWG credits "servername" in EBay.
If anybody here wants to clean out my shop and sell my stuff for a profit, I not only won't ban you, I'll put you on the admin list.

Everything I sell is priced a level that includes my time. I could care less what happens to it after the sale as long as the customer is happy with the purchase.
One thing that has worked for me was to shop vendors looking for components for different things, like rugs, gongs, and other quest and loot components. Then I make the final product and sell it. It's amazing what you can find. Even at the going rate, the finished product is usually worth a lot more than the sum of it's parts. Never been banned and if I was I wouldn't care. But you are correct. it is a lot of work. It took me 2 hours of planet hopping to make my first orange rug. I found 3 adhesives, but I only bought one. Now, nobody wants to sell because rumor has it they haven't been dropping. Oh well.
