I deleted a vendor the other day with 3 items I had just sold onauction for 3m credits each! Yes, I deleted 9m credits worth of items before getting them out of the Stockroom! I did a ticket to CS who only replied with a pre-written note which had no real relevance whotsoever!
Does anyone know a procedure or "trick" to get these items back? I think I know what the answer will be but thought I would ask just in case 
I have so far tried retrieving in Stockroom from another vendor, placing another vendor with identical name and tried the Stockroom, cried, screamed and begged for help but nothing has worked up to now.

Sorry to hear that..I can think of 2 options, one of which is to somehow hack their database..
Second.. sleep with Thunderheart

Sorry to hear this. But sadly, there is no way for you to get the items back unless a CSR just suddenly decides to give the items to you. Deleted items are gone from the database. Even if it could be proved that you had the items and deleted them by mistake, it would set a bad precident for a CSR to reimburse you. There are 1000s of other folks who have deleted items from their inventory, or junkeda backpack with something in it, by mistake.
I myself have deleted a backpack of deeds by mistake once. It was full of harvesters, medium Naboo houses, and factories. I was very upset.

If you sold them on auction then how could you pick those items up? If it was your vendor and you sold them then someone else had to have bought them from you and if I had just paid 9 mill for a few items I am not going to chance leaving them on a vendor, I will pick them up then and there.

Sold them via online auction. See the trades forum. He hadn't delivered them yet.

really? wot did u put in the ticket/email to them? any advise would be great.
And aye,I sold them on online auction and went to pick up to deliver. ButI deleted the vendor asI didnt need it anymore but totally forgot to retrieve from Stockroom thinking (false of habit after just buying alot of stuff just minutes previously from aBazaar terminal) it had automatically went into my inventory
I should know better and can only blame myself, but I am going to email asking if they can do it so you can't delete a vendor without first retrieving any items from it like a Crafting Station Hopper (if of course that the vendor does have paid maintenance).

Had something like this happen to a friend. He had gotten Married and left for his honeymoon and thought he had enough money in his vendor but had a Vendor go Belly up onhim with a Ton of stuff on it. CSR was nice and was able to help him out withit. Not sure if he gave him back money or the items. Only had one CSR give me back a house that popped on me when I went toretrieve it. Hope they help you out.. And I hope themoney they paid for the items wasn't dirty otherwise the items will be the least of your worries.
