I think they (SOE DEV's) will raise the number of items allowed on the vendors...so Merchant people will be ok.
But incase they don't and for the people that have vendors without the skills to operate them you are going to be losing your vendors...that much we can be sure of.
I am proposing this idea.
In EQ there once was a place where everybody would park alts and or go when they needed to sell and or buy something. This place was EC Tunnel (EC = East Commons).
This place was packed with people selling stuff left and right...it was spam central...
/shout selling 5 bags of weapons at T2...poke me to see what I am selling
/shoult selling fungi for 50k pp...PST
etc...
Anyway this system while not the best...it worked.
I think we should turn the Theed Bank area into this new location.
Why Theed you ask? Because it has a no wait SP.
Why not just sell at the Theed SP and not at the Bank??? because one the bank will allow for you as a seller to have extra storage near buy and will allow for buyers that forgot money to have access to it instead of saying...oh I will be right back I have to get money.
I also think we should have one main spot on the server to buy and sell instead of trying to do this at all the banks in the major cities.
It will also allow forupstart crafters to get into the buying and selling of goods too...
Just an idea...what do all of you think???

Sounds like a new Lagonet... with spam eewww. Nah honestly if there is no other way ok. I won't do it, that's for sure. I just think of the Coronet slums right before town gates... poor Theed 
Not to forget the server boundaries and the lag in the surrounding towns

look down zoom in and have a macro running the dump graphics command over and over should take care of your lag...
Half this post is serious and half this post is pointing out that they are not making this change to enhance performance as it is going to cause more lag in the long run
