I have an NPC vendor and a droid vendor. I wanted to remove the droid vendor but when used it shows all the items in the NPC vendor. I'm sure that all the items that I've put in the vendor were inserted into the NPC vendor, however I'm worried that removal of the droid vendor will also remove the items.


Has anyone run into this before. Where they removed a vendor and it destroyed items inanother vendor?


Am i being paranoid or should i remove all the items from the NPC vendor before I try removing the droid vendor just to be safe?


Inventory space is limited so removing all the items from theNPC vendor won't be an easy task.

Do NOT under ANY circumstances destroy a vendor before removing ALL items.


Doing so puts them into an eternal limbo - you can see them - but never access them. Just being destroyed would actually be better than being able to see their shadows and not get to them.


Always clean out a vendor first, and yeah, it's a royal PITA. If you can actually place the new one next to the old one it makes the process a LITTLE easier.


Sounds like you have done this - but are looking at the default region view - which will show ALL your vendors. Make sure when you check - that you are using THAT VENDORS view - not the default region. If you look at the one you wish to destroy and it shows empty - you should be good to go.

Wire, Thanks for the quick reply.


Yes, if I have the Location Filter set to "This Region" I see the items in the other vendor.


When i change Location Filter to "Vendor: Stock" I don't see any items listed under "For Sale" or "Stockroom"


So I guess that means I'm good to remove the vendor and shouldn't loose any items in the other.

Ayup - long as the local view is empty - you should be golden.
