if we have master merchant now androughly 6000 listed items and 4000 items in stockroom, what will happen on 1st day of NGE ?
i am happy to become trader or whatever but cant lose any vendors etc and NO WAY can take all the items off as no space to store 10,000 items

whats the plan ? why is there no definite answer on this ? why is there no details on the trader profession and how we need it to equate to master merchant in terms of vendor / item storage... ?
please answer SOE or if someone has a link to an answer on this ?

You have 10000 items on your vendor? 
This a pre-cu, sploited, double-pearl, droid traded, sliced, hacker vendor? Mine was nerfed down to 4000 items a while back...

I've started to delete the crap that I've relisted 50 times and making room in house, factories and anything else I can find. I'm pretty sure it will carry over, but I'm concerned with bugs. I went from 7 vendors yesterday to 4 and I'm working on cleaning those 4 out too.

I myself was geared up and ready to stock my vendors full,
NGE announced, I am now pulling everything from my shelves.
removing maint paid and deleteing them all, without a second thought

Anyone who thinks it will be replaced if it disappears during such a transition, should know better
anyone who does not plan to activly protect your own items, I won't feel sorry for

We know the problems with Merchant as is..do not pretend they will all go away and new ones won't show after this.

when i say 10,000 items i mean yes 4,000 listed and 6,000 in packs in stockroom. as master merchant i list the max items possible then rest lurks in stockroom.
i have no spare lots for factories / sorosuubs etc so nowhere else to store these items except on vendors 
there was a brief mention that we would probably be able to keep vendors if trader but i guess i'll have to trust soe not to delete my life savings all invested in vendor stock 
anyone else in this position or know what is going to happen to our vendors for sure ?
cheers and good luck to you all

I like the orginal poster have thousands of items on the vendors, My plan is just to pull the non replaceable stuff off on the day before nge day. I currently run 12 vendors so I know I will have to be changing that once nge goes into effect.
my question is are they going to let master merchants respec to full traders or since we non combat will we have to run all the quests once again?

No one is 100% on this,
from what is posted for respec noncoms will transfer level by how many skillpoints they have used
Coms will transfer over with CL level....

So how far up the skillmap you will be for anyone in any profis fairly uncertain.

somequestions still unanswered anywhere on the forums and every single merchant needs to know :-
1) if we respec from merchant pre-NGE to Trader with the NGE will be 100% guaranteed to have the same amount of vendors, with same amount of max items listed and NOTHING deleted at any point ?
2) if we respec from merchant pre-NGE to something other than Trader with the NGE then are we 100% guaranteed to keep all our vendors / listed items or will they be removed in the respec ?
3) the evasive way the devs have answered these questions leads us to believe that if you respec to Trader all will be ok with vendors but if you respec to any other profession they will be deleted. are we to be assured that we can keep pre-NGE vendors no matter what profession we choose with the NGE or is this only true for current cl80 characters, following the "cl80 characters with vendors currently will keep them".
in summary, can we be guaranteed to keep pre-NGE vendors no matter what profession we choose with the NGE ?
some definite answers please devs, no more cryptic clues we need to prepare...
thanks
