Vendors should say "Loading" while Loading, not "Nothing here"

    Reason being, sometimes it takes a minute to load. So they may have something there but the players close and move on, thinking there is nothing.

    Agreed - but maybe not loading.. maybe.. something more immersive?
    "Let's see what I have here.." or similar? .. and if they were empty, something like "It seems I have nothing available at the moment" or similar?

    Being able to distinguish between an empty vendor and one with items (perhaps even the last time some refresh occurred) without having to click them, would be helpful.

    Great ideas! I would love to be able to see the total items for sale and the total buy orders available by mousing over the vendors.

    It would be useful vendors would take a different posture when they don't have anything to buy or sell.

    I agree with all these ideas.
    Even with a fast machine and connection sometimes it takes a vendor a while to load and says "nothing for sale" and their inventory will populate RIGHT when I'm closing the window.

    This is an awesome idea.
