They don't have multiple venders, just the ones bus II &IV gives, and more than enough for them. They have limited resources and can make small amounts of items, but it does let them earn a living. The GVS would' bring new customers in, and you're taking it away from them. They will be back the way it was pre-GVS, players running past their fully stocked shop, and to bunch of poorly stocked or empty group of vendors. As for those that want instant delivery, you should be able to purchase the item(s) off the public bazaar, but have to go to the shop to get it. Merchants/crafters, if the person is banned from your shop or mall, but made a purchase, they should have a friend send you an in-game e-mail, and arrange a time to be allowed to get themthe item(s). The same friend, who sent the e-mail, should be present also. If you don't want the banned person(s) buying from you, refund their credits, and wait 30 days for the item(s) to kick back to you.
Why should you with fewer skillpoints allocated to business and merchant have the same skills I have? You shouldn't. If you don't have the skills for advertising then figure out some other way to advertise.
The remote purchasing idea is dead anyway. It has been removed from the TestCenter code and I suspct it was never supposed to be there in the first place.
And even if it wasn't Why on earth would I refund any credits 30 days in advance of being able to get my merchandise back? Thats ridiculous.

Ya know if they gave us the search filtering of the Bazaar in EQ and the Bullitin Board of EQ2..
Without the purchase options PURE SERACH and WP
I would not cringe one bit about loseing my own earned skills to the masses.

Fix filters and catigories first!
Then
Give us a proper search function
Partial name, partial item name, min/max price, slot, etc...
Give us that
Allowing the function as is with or without prices is a mess..
Thousands of pages of items not filtered to where they should be found.
Items sunk into huge catigories which in truth should be broken into smaller ones themselves.
