I don't know if many of you caught it but a change that is on TC and is coming to live soon (this week for sure I think) is an added column in the item display that lists the remaining time on the sale timer. This should make it much easier for you to do restocking BEFORE the items actually expire to the stock room.

Excellent. That is one of those features that is always brought up but never manages to make it to the top 10. Nice little feature for merchants.

Now if we could just get the magic "restock" button to go along with it...

That's a neat feature, but I already have a ritual the first of each month. Get home, write rent checks/pay bills IRL, log on to SWG, pay rent/ delist all items on all vendors and relist them all. Takes about 4 hours from start to finish.


Sad when the game you play for recreation is just as much trouble to maintain as your real life. Actually, it's harder. I can set up automatic paycheck deposits and automatic bill pays in real life if I wanted, but can't set up auto maintenance of vendors and the like in SWG.


I have seen the future, and it is retro !

I noticed something odd in the time-remaining column for the vendor stockroom. If I delist items, they have the 30 day timer PLUS thetime the items had left when they were listed (ex: delisted with 5 days left, stockroom timer now says 35 days).


I also noticed that when an auction/sale on the bazaar is unsuccessful, the item falls into the available items tab and the timer there is 30 days as well!Can anyone confirm this?





Well, I'm better than dirt! Well, most kinds of dirt.
I mean, not that fancy store-bought dirt.
That stuff's loaded with nutrients. I can't compete with that stuff.
