I LOVE Vendordiving.

The orangutan of course - I mean if you're actually walking into a room that has two large and strong primates that have no food, one that has food and one of the ones without food is a very inventive tool user I doubt you're that smart. I know I wouldn't walk into that room.

[Thicket Tundrabog]

Hmmm... methinks a few folks don't get it.

If I walked into a room with a chimp, gorilla and orang-utan, I'd say I was the smartest primate. Maybe bad assumption though

If I walked into a room with a chimp, gorilla and orang-utan, I would definitely not be the smartest one, because I just walked blindly into a room with 3 animals that could rip my arms out of their sockets.

Ha! I've got you all beat! Yesterday, I actually found a Spiderling Silk on a vendor.

[Frerin the Smith]

I just started a baby monk on a new server and sold a few stacks of spiderling silk in the bazaar to buy some toys with. I get a tell from the buyer, "were did u get the spidlerng silsk frm" I answered, "From spiderlings in E Commons" His response? "haha I check all the venders there EVERYday so don tlie"

*sigh* Remember when everyone looted everything they needed for tradeskills?

[Miluvas]

Not a tradeskill find but...

...Amulet of Necropotence for 525p on a vendor.

I just had a lovely find. A full stack of jacinth for all my artisan's seal needs. It was beautiful since the server had been up for such a long time until this week. Whoever it is that keeps selling all these useful things to vendors is a wonderful person.

GRATS!

I found Emerald colored mephit scales a few weeks ago at the vendor by the small bank in PoK. I've been searching bazaar and alla's but so far I have no clue if it's a decent find or not. Anyone know?

hi im kinda new wat is venderdiving? please...

[Liwsa]

vendordiving is the art of looking through what a vendor is selling to see if another player sold anything useful. One man's junk is another man's treasure.

Many avid tradeskillers will frequently browse through vendor's inventories in hopes of finding trade skill components that other players have sold to that vendor. Many people just sell what they loot off mobs to local vendors instead of selling in bazaar or using. Many of the folks you find that frequent eqtraders message boards have found "treasures" vendordiving. There are quite a few posts on what folks have found if you search for them.

[perryslots]

thanks liwsa ill have to look for stuff more often. its amazing what people sell to venders... they could make aloooot of money... owell

Hit gate by accident instead of Nexus, ended in Thurg (Ok,ok, so I bind in Thurg!) Checked vendors since I was there and just found 3 STACKS of Arctic Wyvern Hides, stack each of Surperb and Flawless Rockhopper hides, Stacks of Cod Oil, 2 Gem Studded Chains, 11 Small blocks Velium, 13 Imbued Emeralds and some other misc stuff. Gotta love it when someone reached 250 skill and ditches all thier stash on a vendor instead of bazaaring it.
