Anyone ever got his vendor stuck at the 'initializing vendor' screen? Any way to fix it? I don't have much of value in it but it would still annoy me to have to remove it and lose my 150 items...

I can use the vendor to look at items, or add items. I can rotate the vendor. I can't remove the vendor, or reset ad barking, or reregister planetary advertising, or perform any other administrative tasks. I get the message "You can't see that object". This just started happening out of the blue the other night. Everything was fine, I made no changes. All of sudden I just couldn't access the vendor administratively.

Thoughts?

This happens to my vendors because I have them behind my sales counter. If I walk around them it works find. This also happened when I placed a crate on the floor next to the vendor, and they were not touching. Have you dropped any items on/near your vendor that maybe blocking your line-of-site. Also, try text commands instead of the mouse.

I'll try anything - SOE has yet to respond an they probably never will. What is the text command to withdraw maintenance? Pickup or Remove vendor? That is all I really want to do at this point.

I don't have any answers, but I have almost the same exact problem. I've posted my info at:

Still stuck - tried everything at this point. Still no help from any CSR. I have /bugged this many times. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to raise the chances of getting a response from someone official ?
