Hi! Can someone explain to me how offering items to a vendor works? I am totally unfamiliar with this. Does the vendor give me the credits I want for the item or what? I have no clue how this works and someone just ordered a blue rug from me. Do I get paid on putting the item in, or does the owner of the vendor have to buy it off his vendor? Thanks for your help!
The owner of the vendor has to buy it. Then you get the money.

Here is how it works in more detail:
You as a supplier contact a merchant or crafter, and hear if there is anything you can supply him OR, you find a vendor that has signs or barks that tell you what it will buy. If you offer items for sale to a random vendor, there is high chances that the offer will be rejected, as not all merchants are looking to buy stuff from others.
The best way is therefore to arrange a deal with the merchant up front, and get a designated vendor you can deliver the goods to, at an agreed upon price. This way, both you and the merchant get less hassle.
The merchant can buy the offered items when he checks the vendor for offered items. He can also choose to reject an offer. If this is the case, you will get an email about it, and will have to go and pick the item up from the vendor. It is smart to pick up rejected offers as soon as possible, because if the merchant for some reason destroys the vendor, your items are lost (and there is no way for the merchant to know if you have picked up the rejected items or not).
I usually sell a crate at 2k which is pretty cheap, but i'm not in that buisness to get reach its more like a hobby
But either its some crappy SINGLE powerup (like 2% max damage, no second stat) asking for the full 2k I sell my crates of 33%/16% stuff
Or its a crate that I did not make myself, and therefor can't sell. And sometimes it's even a crate of my own, but with one or two are missing and priced at the full 2k.
Do they really think I'm to stupid to count and see that they already took one out and want it for free?
Especially since NOONE of them ever send me an email about it.
If someone would offer my own stuff back, in original condition, telling me in an email that it was an accidental buy, then yes, i would buy it back. But not otherwise.
If someone told me "Ack sorry, I bought the "Ranged Powerup XY" but I actually needed "Melee Powerup XY", but only saw it after I bought it", I MIGHT buy it back, just to be nice. Would depend on how nice that person would ask.
