Yesterday I dropped some painting and texture kits into my vendor.
A customer ask me for them. So after I dropped them, I was searching for them.
If I didn't know for what price I dropped them, I think, I never would have found them again.
They are putted to the category misc. But not into a subcategory. I looked into every subcategory within misc. but nothing.
I don't know, if it should be in a special category and if it should be in misc. I mean, it's definetly made for ships and ships only.
What do you think? Should it be under ship components in an own category or should it be under the misc. in an own category? Or shall it even stay where it is right now?
I believe that it is hard for a customer to search a good filled vendor for such an item. Especially when the customer doesn't know where to search. And if he uses 'all' and the vendor is filled with 120+ items.. I guess, you get the point..
Opinions?

I'm pretty sure it's just under 'ship components' which makes it really really hard to find what I need to stock. I do think that ship paint and ship textures should have their own category in the vendor.

yes, it is now listed under misc, I guess they changed that after one of the recent patches, because some of my old paint/texture kits were still under ship component. To relist them under 'misc' all I had to do was remove them from the vendor, retrieve them and put them back up again! 
Now it is much easier to tell what I have to stock!

I just set up a separate vendor for paints, texture and repair kits.
