Question about player vendor weekly cost

[edw3rdwood]

Let's say my vendor has 50k on him, and his weekly cost is 3k. Is the weekly cost taken out of his total gold, or taken from my character's bank account? I am wondering because I don't use that character much anymore and don't keep much gold in his bank, but don't want the vendor to just disappear or something if his bank goes empty.

It's taken from the vendor's gold.

Thanks. Out of curiosity, what happens if the vendor runs out of gold completely? Does it auto-disappear or does it take from character bank gold first?

You might want to look at that vendor screen again. That vendor fee is daily. High priced stuff that doesn't move can cost you a fortune.

Vendor goes poof, and the stuff left on him goes to your bank.

I'm not 100% sure, as I haven't had that happen to me yet. I think it just disappears. Got a warning while setting up my vendor yesterday about it, despite having 100k in the bank at the time.

While on topic, if I am paying a rental fee to another player to have a vendor at his house, where does this fee come from every week? My bank or vendor gold?

I'm not sure about that to be honest, I'll let you know if I figure it out though.

I would really like to know this as well. I know, for example to start a vendor with rental fee you must have that initial cost of rental in your bank box in actual gold. I have a sneaking suspicion that it comes from the vendor's totals.

If the initial vendor rental process is asking to collect physical gold from your bank box, then the whole system is probably not set-up to identify with the credit/deposit system. This is pure conjecture, but I also imagine the internal mechanics would have issues accessing logged off players' bank boxes.

It pulls it out of the vendor's balance.
