Stub
Unless someone has a compelling reason otherwise, I'm going to remove the stub tags from most of these merchants. I don't see any additional information from the formatting guide that pertains to merchants. --Jasmine 00:38, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Sounds fine to me. -- Lemming [[Image:User Lemming64 sigicon.png]] 00:42, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Just make sure if you remove the stub that they have some level 0 text (which is usually the " is a merchant, a type of NPC that blah blah..."). That's really the last thing that's missing from most of them. - B e X  [[Image:User BeXoR sig.gif|iawtc]] 04:44, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * How about a list of what they sell? 145.94.74.23 09:08, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Indiviual Merchant pages need to be updated.
Small equip pack added to the items they sell. Lotta the individual merchants don't have that item listed. 24.233.254.51 01:58, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Unclear text
"Merchants only sell full stacks of the following" + "And a maximum of ten at once of these"... uh, what? Well, I know these sentences should be understood as "Players can buy up to a full stack of a given stackable item at once" + "Player can buy up to 10 units of a non-stackable item at once", but text is misleading me to believe that "these items are only sold as a full stack" + "only up to ten of these items are available each time you interact with a Merchant". Do we really need this weird/confusing note? --NIN37 15:10, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Merchants won't sell a full stack of lockpicks, because that's > 100k. Why is this even a note?--128.244.230.27 16:03, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
 * That's my point... If such note is due needed, a less restricted one should be used instead. Something like "Players cannot purchase more than 10 units of any non-stackable item at once".
 * But, honestly who would want to buy 250 identification kits when a newly created character can only hold as much as 20 items? :::Sure, +1x belt pich +2x bags (+rune of holding) = 45 items...
 * +1x equipment pack = +5~20... But only weapon sold by merchant would be Starter Shield in pre-searing (where only equipment pack available is the small one).
 * Seriously, there's no need to buy a full stack of an item (if they're sold by merchants, you can grab more later, no need to purchase large amounts at once).
 * Note is still misleading (could make reader believe it is not possible to get more than 10 of any item).
 * Seriously, it does not add any essential piece of information and makes it more confusing than clarifying. At most, such info should go into Item stacking or Item...
 * BTW, "Where applicable, items are sold to a merchant for half the value they would otherwise be bought for" is incorrect as well. They sell items (usually) for double the value (Belt Pouch costs 20x its value).
 * Wiki keeps "inherit" prices of item (i.e., value displayed when you hold mouse over the item), so, "merchant price" is double "the item value", not the other way around. :P yeah, I'm being annoying... :D --NIN37 14:00, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
