Merchant Archive

Sorry, I've been on vacation for a bit and have a lot of catching up to do with the game. I thought I read before I left for vacation that items placed on vendors will have a 30 day limit, but when I got back this week I noticed that items still have a 7 day limit. Any info on when or even if this will be fixed?

Thanks!

I want to say that TestCenter has the 30 day limit already.

Personally I don't think vendors should have any limit at all, if I put something up for sale then it should remain up for sale untill it's either sold or I take it off sale. I have a large number of items on my vendors so it's a complete and utter pain in the **** running round putting stuff back up for sale (even if I can remember it's price) I'm especially p****d if i miss something and lose it after 24 hours when the stock rooms are cleared, another ridiculous and utterly pointless aspect of the merchant class.

I agree, if you own the place and your paying for a vendor to sell something why does it need to be reposted at all? Make vendors keep items for sell until we remove the item or it sells. Don't know why all merchants aren't up in arms about this.

Also, Master Merchant should be able to have many more vendors than we are given.

Because 30 is way better than 7 and the database issues in this game pretty much ensure that "unlimited" isn't going to happen.

If you haven't sold an item in 30 days time to rethink your price on it.

Yes Master Merchant should get an additional vendor at least as well as other cool stuff. Be thinking of cool stuff because Thunderheart says he is going to get a "State of the Profession" statement from every profession next week and they will include wishlists.

The devs might go for unlimited time limits for vendor sales but only if they put in significant hourly maintenance to discourage people from putting thousands of items on their vendors. Given the screams over the attempt by the devs to put in 3% per day maintenance based on the total value of goods sold it doesn't appear likely we'll ever get to have unlimited time limits. 30 days is plenty as previous posts have stated; if you can't sell an item in 30 days either your price is too high or you've got too much inventory.
