Does the maintenance cost of a vendor go up as you place more items in it for sale? I don't remember paying 70/hour a few days ago when I placed my vendor, yet is is at that rate now. If there are any other quirks about the vendors, please feel free to add them on here as well. I'm just wondering if there is anything else I should look out for with my vendor.

After a little minor experimentation it seems that the vendor cost has something to do with the collective value of all the items listed on it. Are there any other quirks about them that I should be aware of.

Here is my analysis

The maintenance appears to be a function of the total price of the items listed. I had some furniture worth 20k or so listed and three houses at 15k each listed and my maintenance rate was running 170 or 4,000 per DAY. I was forced to delist the houses which brought the rate down to 70 or 1,600 per Day.

THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS, if my house is listed without selling for longer than 3 days I earn no profit on its sale. If its listed longer I lose money.

I was going to open another shop on Naboo, but with these rates I'm not making any profit at my existing shop.

Can we urge the devs to lower the rate?
