Thread: Do you get Merchant XP for selling something on the Bazaar
You do not get XP for bazaar sales. You get 150 xp per hour per vendor you get up. You get 50 xp per person who lookst at your vendors (10 minute limit for each indvidual) and 50 xp for someone paying the access fee for a structure you own.
thank you for the prompt answer.
Another Question i have here, and i hate to post it cause i guess its considered a bug or something and i have yet to see it on any boards here or get a response from a csr about it, (actually 3 different csr's gave me 2 different answers)
If i use the /transferstructure command to give my houses to a friend, and he transfers them back to me, supposedly that resets the timer on access fees? does this work and/or is it like a bug or something that shouldnt be done? i havent tryed it, someone actually on another message board posted it for me to help me through merchant, any ideas?
thanks
Doc - I did get xp for bazaar sales up to a point. I'm now on the forth box of the business tree in the Artisan profession and I find that I'm not getting that any longer.
I have the basic vendor up in my house and do not get hourly xp. If I did I would have filled that forth box up by now. Granted this is still in the basic profession, but how do I get xp for that arm of the profession? Like I said before I used to get xp for sales on the bazaar, but not anymore...or if I do they're so miniscule that I don't notice (like 1xp per sale)
Merchant is going to be my next profession since I have a large interest in it! (Currently am almost a Master Architect). But I don't seem to be making any progress. =\ Any advice?
Lets be clear here. Business I - IV take crafting xp from artisian components. You dont' get any xp from the bazaar. Once you have Business III and place a vendor you will start to get 150 xp per hour from that vendor.

Let me be more specific sorry - there's no way I"m getting HOURLY XP from my vendor in my home. I do noticethe biz IV boxgoes up some when I sell something off of it however.
Im a new merchant but my understanding is that the hourly rate of xp only applies for when the vendor is actually in world. So if someone walking into your shop and the vendor loads up and *poof* appears before the customer, you get the xp for that hour it popped up. If no one walks by the vendor (making it appear in world) you dont get any xp. So if someone walked by a vendor once every 10 hours you'd get 10 hours worth of xp.
Or so thats how I understand it.
