Dont' expect miracles. The devs are serious about limiting the number of items. Irrational screaming about it won't help anyone. Threatening to quit the game won't help anyone. Please give me concrete numbers for the items you sell per week and the imact this change will have on you. Give me realistic compromises to take to the devs. Yelling unlimted at me won't help becuase it is NOT going to be unlimited at any level. We are at 660 now. I would like to see it aggregate and more like 1200 but it will end up being lower I would guess. At this point 750 aggregate would be better than what we have now.



---------------------------------


I have 6 vendors up.


My Medicine Vendor: right about 100 items on it .. no crated..all single

My stim vendor : has about 20 to 30 on it .. no crated...all single


The BE that I sell for:

Her Pet Vendor: about 50 items on it

Her tissue vendor: doesnt have any on it yet ...


The Artisan I sell for:

Her Master Artisan Vendor is empty .. but im just waiting on her to give me stuff


Tha Tailor i sell for:

She is still leveling .. so I have about 60 items on there for her.




.....

Everyone post your numbers so doc can take these to the devs

You're fine..just trying to consolidate the posting into one thread so I have a good focus thread to take back to the devs. I appreciate your calm approach to the issue. We need logic and reason not panic and flames.

And smile..its the weekend...

Is this nerf a joke or just a clumsy attempt to turn merchant into an ATK profession?


Anyway here are the facts:


I have 6 vendors


They sell a variety of food and meds. I try and keep popular items always in stock as well as some esoteric stuff. This requires about 500 items on each vendor (900 items currently on the crated food vendor).


In the last 16 days I have sold 800 items.


I can hardly keep up with demand for Brandy, Bivoli, Synthsteak and stims as it is. With these kind of limits, I would not be able to sell anything but these items, and I would only sell in crates of 25--characters on limited budgets would not be able to afford me.

Across 3 characters with merchant I've sold 2400+ items in the last week. Most of the sales, believe it or not, were Master Artisan items.

I run my droid business across three planets. 2 vendors per planet both stocking around 300+ items each for a total of more than600 itemsper planet. My inventoryconsists of droid repair/recon kits, batteries, customize kits on one vendor and my variety of droids models on the other. Average sales of 100-200 items per week.


Devs:Please reconsider your limits. 110 per vendor does no merchant any service as many before me have attested.


/cheer for the empty vendor removal, however
