Any chance of getting a check facility when you look on planetary map so you can see number of items listed?
I am guilty of having empty vendors at times and also have been on the receiving end of the hunt around vendors.
I don't want people coming to my vendors when they are empty and I don't want to go to other peoples vendors when they are empty. Of course people can remove them from the planetary map but I don't think that is the solution. Taking myself as an example when I put up a full six factory run of buff packs (333 of each type) they sell out quicker than the next lot can be made (and that's assumingI have no resource problems like Herb/Avian meat, or am making any other med items on my six factories) and I won't price them higher to keep some stock as I like my customers and their return visits. Those same customers run out then come look on my vendor to find it empty, then send an email which I reply with an ETA, then send another when stocked. If people can check the number of items on a vendor it works well for existing and new customers. Existing can see you have/haven't many items, new can see if you are worth checking out right then.
I think it would have varying degrees of benefit for all the different crafter professions and every shopper I'm sure would like it.

as of Publish 10 (currently on TestCenter) when your last item sells or expires you will get an email informing you of the fact tht your vendor is empty and the vendor will remove itself from the map.
