I've searched through many messages on here and many have been a couple of months old. I (now) know that there have been some vendor issues in the past. Are most of these resolved or not? What issues are still open?


Also, I need some information on how you use the vendor. I've added items to the vender to sell, but I don't know what the stockroom and offers tab do. Can I use the stockroom to store extra merchandise (so basically treat my vendor as a warehouse)? I added maintenance money to my vendor and the status said I was good for 40 days. I checked yesterday (after a week or so) and it looks like the all this money is gone. How much maintenance on the vendors (using the orginal big bulky one)? Is there a guide that can help me out.


Thanks so much, in advance, for your help!!

The maintence on terminal vendors is based on the total priceof stock in the vendor. At the moment npc vendors work for a credit an hour! But I hear they will go strike soon and demand more money.


Be very careful when using the stockroom as it only works for that vendor, sothe stockroom of one vendorcannot be accessed by any other vendors, even though you can see it. Don't ever think you can destroy a vendor with stock in the stockroom (or any part of the vendor for that matter) and ever be able to get hold of it again, you will always see it listed in the regional stockroom and avalible items on the bazaar but you will never be able to touch it again

Do not put resources on the npc vendors. There is a problem with split stacks. The first person to buy one gets all of it and the rest cannot be retreived.

Ok well I foolishly placed 7 or so stacks of resources in my first NPC vendor before reading about these issues. I'm fairly certain that no one has bought any yet. is there any chance I can withdraw the sales or will that just make them get lost in the stockroom?

If they are lost I should be able to get a CS ticket to have them or their value returned to me and them removed from said stockroom?

Can resources be safely placed in the bartender type droid vendor?

Uh, that's all for now but I'm sure there's more.

Does that mean that you can sell stacked or split resources on non-NPC vendors?
