Merchant Archive

I want to know if there are any merchants on Ahazi. When I search none come up. Why don't you people put your titles up so I can find you. It's ok if you craft but I want to know someone that stresses buying and sellings goods and raw materials. Please post if you are a working merchant on Ahazi and put on your Title.

the problem is any time the server resets you have to relist your vendor -- so if you play early in the day people probably haven't had a chance to get on and redo the listing...

That's good insight but not what I refer too. I'm talking about your character's titile. For example, Novice Ranger or Master Bounty Hunter. I search on Ahazi for anyone with Merchant title and no one has it. It's so frustrating when I can't even find any of you. Don't complain to devs about your proffession because no one can ultilize you because we don't know who you are. I know that most of you are advanced crafters and just picked up merchant to sell the goods you sell.

What I am looking for is a Merchant who spends substantially more time buying and selling other's goods than using his skills to aid just HIS crafting. Basically I'm looking for a Commodity trader if anyone is. I have interest in suppling and buying from you. I also have ideas for when the economy gets developed where players orgs can act as banks and firms.

I am a master architect on ahazi, I live in theed. I mainly make money from buying and selling other peoples good at super low prices and reselling. Is that what you meant?

Just a note in case you weren't sure: doing a /who search (which is the same as doing search throught the community window) only reveals people around you, not people on the whole server.

The issue is you can only post one title. I am a master architect, master artisan, and master merchant (funny, 2 of the 3 of those are almost entirely pointless to be master of.. the one that IS useful at all, is a base profession!)... I occasionally have a merchant title on, but more often I have architect or artisan up... sometimes I actually use the tier 4 titles instead of the master titles.

Also, you only see people within a fairly short range of you when you search (I'm not sure if it is based on distance, or simply on the sub-server you happen to be on.. i.e. if you are on a server boundary, and someone is 20 feet from you but on the other side of that boundary, would they show up to you?)

I base from Ahazi, and run a shop which sells pretty much everything. Huge selection of architected goods, did have a huge clothing selection, but my tailor partner basically gave up on tailoring and moved to a combat-based character because crafters are such flawless professions! I am getting to the point I may do this myself, as well, but for now, I'm forcing myself along.

Unfortunately, our shop was really screwed up by this patch, and I don't know if I'll be able to recover... 3/4 of my heavy harvesters are gone (I only had my own lots, so it isn't like, 30 harvesters, but still), my factory is totally useless, my vendors are all broken (too many items on them, and I can't retrieve them now, we had all our vendors in 1 medium house on Corellia, and the house limit combined with ALL vendor items counting against house totals, pretty much broke everything).

So I don't know how long this will be true (I'm really starting to burn out on SWG period... not a lot holding my interest in it), but I am currently mostly a merchant... of course, all the master crafters I had deals with to stock my vendors have since decided to give up on crafting, so its getting harder to stock things, but.... well... *sigh* yeah.
