2 Big complaints so far.
All factory crates are lumped under Factory Crates. On Intrepir on Naboo there is almost 50 pages of factory crates. People now wish we would take items out of crates but we all know vendor limits make that next to impossible.
Same with Wearable containers.
That is what my customers complain about the most.
Houses & Factories show uner Deed - Building Deed - - so why is there another category called Installation? The Installation category has factories and harvesters listed there - but harvesters show up somewhere else - under Deed Installation Deed.
Come on - why have all the catrgories if items just get lumped together.
Did the Devs even think about this?

If you float your mouse over the item in your inventory, it will show you what category it belongs to.

I understand that - but still makes no sense to have multiple categories for the same items and not allow them to be logically placed into that category.
Its just lack of planning and rushing content into the game.

I still want to know what the difference is between:
Misc > Generic Item and Misc > Item
Misc > Generic Item and Misc > Item

More important factory crates need to be listed by the item type thats in the crate - and not just as a factory crate.
There is over 100 pages of factory crates if you do a entire galaxy serach.
That is not very user friendly.

On Corbantis we had 21,240 factory crates listed by the end of last night. Not only that, but the listing was bugged somehow. You would click on a crate of travel backpacks and the guarateed item attributes were clearly for a crate ofweapon power-ups. The crate item count did not even match from the left side of the item detail window to the right side. It is a complete and utter mess right now.

Unfortunately, apparently not. Those are all standing issues that merchants and non-merhcants have all been asking for a fix on for ages. I really am flummoxed as to why this went live without addressing those.

Would work best if it's not a backpack though. Nobody in their right mind will browse through backpacks in the vendor listings. Of course, that's what I sell all my real items in
. Guess the vendor listings wouldn't help me much no matter how I look at it...
Unless of course they add the shiny new Lightsaber Kit category under weapons

I've handmade singles of stuff I have in crates and named them, for instance, "Melee Powerups - 33/16 - 4k/crate - See Waypoint," and putting it up at the crate price, in hopes that people will pick up on it. That's really the only way we have of helping people find just what they want.
I'm quoting myself because right after I made this post, I logged in to find out someone has purchased one of my ad powerups. ::facepalm:: I told him in mail he can offer it back for what he paid and get a full crate for the same price if he wants.

Something else to remeber if you vendors are not showing up.
The bazaar is borked, it never listed everything at once
and itlikes to relist items from previous pages all over again on latter pages.
and itlikes to relist items from previous pages all over again on latter pages.
So if you aren't seeing you items, don't worry someone will eventually somewhere intime...
Can Merchants who posted so much warning against this get a badge in our bios that says "I told you so", puhleese..with suger on it?
