thats the only way possible. there is no admin system in place for vendors and there will ever be. Having high level vendors, such as NPC vendors and so forth are derived from skills obtained in merchant, it's not a given right like a house or structure where just any Joe Nobody can own. If a master merchant gives admin rights to a buddy who doenst even have a skill invested in artisan at all to a vendor where they can post items up for sale and so forth, then everyone and they grand mama will do it, thus skipping the grind to master merchant, thus causing an uproar in the community cause it aint fair. it basiclaly like giving someone admin rights to your profession.

This is where I disagree, one of the original proposals for Merchants and vendors was to have a system similar to this where you as a Merchant could "rent" out a vendor to someone for a set fee. I believe it was dropped in beta somewhere, but it was and still is a good idea IMO. You, as a Merchant, still make money and still use your skills to hire and "own" the vendors you simpley co-sign them to a paying customer that wishes them to selll their goods. I do not see where this would merchants.
