What kind of a vendor? Termin/Robot? Yes you will be spending a fortune on them cause they are percentage of the value of stuff your selling there for it could be 25cr at one time then you put up a house for sell for like 30k and then all of a sudden it is 1k per hour...

Best thing to do is use an NPC Vendor... they are a flat 25cr a hour I believe... Someone correct me if I am wrong.

The only problem with using an NPC vendor is that they STILL have the bug where resources become stuck in them.. making them useless for a resource merchant like myself. This forces resource salesmen to use crappy terminal type vendors, which can have maintenance costs in the 10's of thousands per day!

I just don't understand why all other vendors don't have this bug yet they can't seem to fix NPC vendors to be the same.

Obviously known about and broken since beta from talking to CSR's and they still have done NOTHING.

If they fix NPC vendors I'll bet they also cost as much as droids.

If they do that prices will skyrocket. On just one of my vendors i have over 500 items. I belive in having fully stocked vendors as i cannot sit on line and craft for every single person 24 hours a day.

How does being a Master Merchant effect the cost of vendor upkeep?
