Vendor Fee

[rwek]

Hey anyone know what the vendor fee is?

My vendor is charging me about 400k per day. I'm just wondering what the total value of my goods are based off that.

You could look it up on the Stratics Vendor page, found on the main Stratics page right hand column under the Miscellaneous heading. The essay isn't dated (ALL STATICS GUIDES SHOULD BE DATED! HINT - HINT), but seems to accurate in calculating charges. It does not include "recent" vendor changes though, which wouldn't affect your charges anyway.

Some people long ago priced things and then placed them on the vendor and now the vendor charges at that price. I find that is when i price same items using the Ctrl Q and then lay a price after that for new item. Get a 5k item and a 3k item and end up with 50,003,000. The you Q for same price for another 3k item and end up with a big bill from the vendor. So look at all the items on the vendor has right pricing and that nothing on the vendor paperdoll is priced.

Unless something changed or my memory is playing tricks on me, it's 1% of the total item value, every 24 hours, so 400k a day = 40m of stuff.

Sorry coffee fix hadn't kicked in yet. OK again at military TM level. An item at one time could be placed in the vendors backpack priced at lets say 40mil. Then that item could be dragged onto the vendors paperdoll and still have the price in the description of the item when cursor ran over it. Plp then place an unpriced item saying items on vendor paperdoll ICQ me BS. This avioded the vendor fee and was deemed BAD of course. After a change not to long ago for vendors, thoss goofy priced (like 99999999999999999gp) items on the paperdoll now get charged.
The other is fat finguring the keys and layering price of two items for insane price. Just my experience so check every item on the vendor if something is mispriced. The vendor fee should never get as high as your is unless you have one with few dozen each of val and hearwood runics. Placing big price items on a vendor and not keeping up with others pricing or what the bank sitters are charging will be a gold loss. Running great vendors is a skill that takes dedication and watching the market.
