I can now confirm this. Items left in stockrooms for a significant period of time--it seems to be between 5 to 7 days--will disappear. This also goes for items purchased from the Bazaar but left unclaimed for this period of time.
Now it's possible that this is the result of a manual deletion performed during the daily maintenance rather than an automatic routine (e.g., the devs wiped the database of all items in the "Available" tab that had been there for five days or more, but that they won't routinely do this every single morning). But it *does* happen. So no using the stockroom as a storage vault, and make sure to pick up those Bazaar purchases relatively expediently.

Until this is documented somewhere, I will continue to open TT and do /bug for disappearing items.
I live on Tatooine and I do NOT intend on running to Rori or Talus everytime I purchase a single item from there on the Bazaar. I wait until there are enough items waiting that it is worth my time and $$ to make the trip.
If there are storage limits (by quantity or time) on vendors, then it is only appropriate that we be told about it. There was (and still is) NOTHING saying that a vendor's stockroom can not be used for storage.

I've got some stuff that are in my stockroom from destroyed vendors (from a house move) They have been there about a week..I suspect they will poof this week sometime. There is definitely a time limit on the stockroom. I do with they would warn you or something.
