have nothing in stock?


I was looking on the world map for the housing section and I look for the one closest to Theed, it was a little far off but it wasn't that far, looking for a medium house. So when I get there he only had 2 small houses and a flora harvestor for sale. I did that for a weaponsmith the other day and same thing nothing for sale., when people like myself look for a place to shop on the world map I usually look for some place close, and if there not stocked its really unlikely I'll walk to a shop 5000m from town.


Its going to be bad for people who have a shop advertised on the global map if everyone who uses the world map to find stores and get there and their unstocked, there not going to walk to the ones far from town not knowing if its stocked or not.

I don't know. If I get low on stock, I take my vendors off the map until I can get them restocked. Advertising an empty vendor is a great way to drive yourself out of business.

The nice thing is that SOE takes down my planetary advertising every morning for me. Well, the functional parts, not the cost increase. You mean that isn't a feature?

Perhaps they got tired of paying 3.2 % of the total stock value per day ? *shrug*

people dont wanna wait around with expensive stuff on their vendor just waiting for someone to notice it 0.o


you go out and look for a buyer on the more expensive things, I've got my name on my vendor so people can contact me if they are looking for specifics, else I've just got furniture and a few other small things

for that matter, once you manually remove yourself from the map you cannot readd until you relog
