There are quite a few, but the two that really bug me:

1. Bonus level not being shown on most items until you actually zone to the right server, find the vendor again and search from whichever CM.

2. Not being able to purchase items from vendors that have more than 200 plat on them. If this is the case, most times when someone's let their account expire but leaving their vendor full of shit I need, then the items shouldn't be listed at all.

- Agreed, don't even list vendors that are too full of plat. Either that or let them hold unlimited plat; it's just a storage place for a number after all.

- Let players get a report from their merchant on what was sold and for how much.

- Put in more search criteria. Tons of new procs and abilities that you can't search for.

- Put in a toggle to not show items unusable by my class.

- Fix the search drop downs so you can filter more than one at a time. If I look for something with STR and a DoT proc it only searches for STR or Proc and not STR AND DoT.

Make it easier to price something over 10 coins.


It's so fun pressing a button 50 times just to price something at 500g.

The fact that it requires 50 mouse clicks to price something at 500g is absurd. That was a stupid UI design 7-8 years ago, and it's still stupid today.

Yes, I know about /setprice, but that interface is just as dumb. You have to manually count which slot your item is in to use it, and it only works if your account is the owner (or your char is GM) of the house.

Shouldn't be able to list things for more plat than what a character can carry and it shouldn't display merchants that are already too full.

Hate when I run all the way out to a house to buy something and it's full, then I can't get in any houses...
