Thread: My vendors are NOT a public trash bin!
lol, oh man I thought I was the only one who had this problem. Seems like almost everytime somebody buys a weapon (usually a n00b one) they offer two of their superseded weapons to my vendor for more than I actually sell mine for!!! I just let them sit there for the 30 days.
On one occasion I had someone offer me a brand new weapon from a competitor after they bought the same weapon from me (few points better dmg) but they offered it for more than I sell mine! W.T.F? I also get the people just coming in and randomly offering weapons made by others with like 100/900 con or something: possibly they expect me to buy it, repair it and resell it. Yeah right...

Yeah I've lost count of the number of Cdefs I've been offered for 5k+ but I did get lucky when someone offered a force crystal for 50 credits (and no I didn't miss the k off that)![]()
lucky bugger I have only had crap so far but unless it stops me from going about my business (ie spotting legit offers) I just leave em there for the 30 days as it will clog up there auction spaces and they probably wont remember where the stuff was offered. Occaisionally I will do a clean house and reject them all but that is annoying and time consuming! The only time I buy something back is if I know the person and its my weapon undamaged at teh same price I sold it for (ie the bought the wrong oen by mistake).
This happened to me the other day - I was offered a pistol that was 10-20 points lower damage than the one the customer bought shortly afterwards, but at the same price. Since I was actually in a back room at the time, I asked him why he did it. His response "Ran out of space in my inventory. Figured you wouldn't buy it, so I'll collect it later." Not as dumb a reason as I'd thought.
lol, heh I'm not a weaponsmith but this happens to me too! people offer me clothing made by other tailors all the time, and it's like, why on earth would I want to buy some slightly damage oddly labelled clothing made by another tailor? ![]()
Although once someone offered a holocron up for 50 credits.
think that's the only thing I've ever bought from all the offers
