I agree.. I was looking at a painting one day.. thought it was 1500000, but it wasn't, it was 15000000. Would be really nice, but I'm pretty sure they will tell us it would cost more than it was worth.

Devs to Players: Due to overwhelming player requests, we have added a system of Karma whereby you will earn Karma for every ugly vendor you allow to work in your shop. You will earn Karma every time a player accesses one of your ugly vendors (up to once every 6 hours except on days beginning with "T" when they fall on an odd numbered day). Once you have earned 1000000 Karma, you can visitthe Trade Federation Bookkeeper who spawns randomly on Lok once a day for 12 minutes. He will take all of your Karma and give you a quest in which you must sell 6 chance cubes for 100000cr each to 6 different players within 15 minutes. If you succeed in this quest, you will receive a random item that can be made by any novice artisan using inferior resources. Enjoy!

I'm going to sign this.
Because sometimes my cat steps on the keyboard and I now have enough in my bank account to worry about accidentally buying an item with an extra zero that I couldn't see clearly.

This seems like such a mandatory change. Big difference between 30000 and 3000000, an even bigger difference between 100000 and 1000000. I'm tired of counting zero's...
Although it may be better to allow players to choose between 1.000.000 or 1,000,000 or (for the insane people) 1000000.

Heck yea.
Usually the last thing I do at night before I log is refill my vendor. Tired eyes and pricing droids is not a good combo. Lucky are the people who get my 80000 droids for 8000. Ironically (or not) the ones priced at 800000 never move.

Yep, I'll hop on board this one... Been there done that, would also love it that anything in game automatically added the commas, when doing power / maint also. Has been once or twice I've hit an extra zero and didnt know it, hell that house has maint paid up thru 2009 now..
Well maybe not quite that long lol..

I would LOVE to see the commas there. All those damn zeros jumble my eyes, and I'm constantly scared I'm going to tip someone 100,000 instead of 10,000, or that I'll misprice something.
