woven mandrake are great, the two mandrakes and boning are one of the more expensive precombines in picnics.
One time I found a shattered crystal on a merchant, right after an earth exp group landed a liquified earth. Bought that and boom, ceramic totem of rathe for 50k in baz. The other day I found a chunk of wind metal, that will go nicely toward my next grimel earring.
I wouldn't call it vendor mining as such anymore, but more like simple vendor luck. Someone else said it's just good timing, that you recognize what's there before someone else does.
I feedbacked this idea, and really hope they implement it, that they make the inventories flowing instead of static. Once a vendor's inventory fills up, anything new he buys, is instantly destroyed. that does no one any good, and the vendors often fill up with junk loot that nobody buys and so they have the same inventory for weeks. When they buy something that they don't already have, it should go in at the top of their inventory, and push the very bottom item out (ie the oldest item that hasn't sold). it only makes sense from all angles. Any smart businessman wouldn't throw out what he just paid for.
Maybe if enough feedback this idea, it might be put in, and while it still wouldn't be mining, it'd be a lot of movement of goods.
