Brekkee - *Ohafi* May I ask if the issue of vendor item limits has been addressed and if so, what are the proposed limits and when do they plan to put them into effect?
TH - Vendor item limits are in progress. I have a meeting monday to discuss the community's concerns with the programming team. I am confident that vendor limits will be increased. The per-vendor limites will remain, though I will work to get as convenient a limit as possible for the players. I understand what it means to be able to conveniently manage your products.

It's something, but we'll obviously have to wait til next week for details...

I just picture Bugs Bunny asking 'Would you like 1 lump or 2'? before clobbering someone over the head with a hammer. I'm sure the vendor item limit will be raised, but not to an acceptable level. I just don't have faith in their understanding of how the game works or their desire to make it work well...

Am I the only one that thinks this means they will keep the 110 limit (aka no more than one page per vendor) but maybe compensate the real merchants with more vendors ?
Have fun

I think under any normal circumstance that would be interpreted as "there will be limits on vendors but those limits will be higher than where we first set them."
However, this is SWG and it could just as easily mean "the vendor limits will remain where they are except for Jedi who will be able to have as many items on them as they want."

I read it to mean "there will be limits on vendors on a per-vendor basis" ... as opposed to aggregate limits or unlimited vendors.
