I'll add in a dollar too.
I would like to be able to go to the vendor, select the items in the stockroom and the click on the "relist" button. All the items should be relisted with the same price and description as before.
Another thing that I really want is a way to change the price without having to pull an item to the stockroom and relist it. I lowered the prices on some of my weapons recently and it took forever. It also generated a flurry of meaningless emails.
As long as I am at it... could we please suppress the "auction unsuccessful" email when we take an item off sale? I know the auction ended... because I'm the one that ended it!
As an FYI, I find it far easier to relist like-priced items from my inventory that from the vendor stockroom. My usual method is to pull as many as I can into my inventory and then set the price once and relist them all. I'm sure that many of you already do that, but I just thought that I would point that out.
I'll give two dollars for the whole list.

If not a general restock button, what about just the option to highlight & select several items at once? That way we can relist everything that's the same price at once?
I'll see that dollar & raise you 2
I really really really like that idea ... as sometimes, I alter prices in reaction to sales and such ... but what about the option to highlight more than one thing in your inventory and list them all at once, assuming they're the same price ... or the ability to split a crate of 50 once, into 10 crates of 5 instead of having to do it 10 times ...
This may not seem like a big deal but the time spent doing this adds up when you're working with a full run of 20 crates ... and I'm sure its even worse for those that sell everything individually ...
Tailors, Archis and those that make things by hand ...don't flame me ... I have a tailor as well and am aware that for the most part we don't get to do factory runs but for the others it would help greatly

We seem to be up to $19 so I'll throw in a dollar and make it $20. I would love a restock button and the ability to shift-click. /drool

I guess I should clarify, they'd have to charge that $10 to my account. I'm not mailing something off.

I have 12 vendors between 3 accounts and spend hours restocking!!! If they cant have a restock button then perhaps make it longer than 30 days? I suggest 90 days at least. I am not even sure of the reasoning behind the restocking anyway does anyone know? I spend at least 1 day a week doing nothing but restocking it has me on the verge of giving up merchant altogether and just having combat characters.

300,000 accounts on SWG(I think, somewhere around there)
I'd say atleast 75-100k of those accounts... people deal with merchants...
ok, lets say, 50,000 people are merchants, just to make it even smaller...
An average of what... 1 hour a month? 2 hours a month...
at one hour a month(modest)... 50,000 hours SWG Wastes on something that can be improved in such a little ammount of time, that would illiminate 95% of that 50,000 hours...
50,000 hours
2083 and 1/3 days
5.7038 years (.7 years is approxmately 257 days)
5 years 257 days worth of time is wasted every month...
if we all gave up merchant, and donated that time to someone that worked at McDonalds for minimum wage... lets say 6.50/hr, 325,000 dollars...
So, we can thus say, SWG is stealing 325,000 dollars from the community...
hahahaha, you like how my math works? I think i would be a good lawyer...

YES. Please oh Please give us a restock button or/and as someone mentioned the ability to set more items up for sale at the same time it would be so amazing if this happened /crossfingers
