Town Centre vendors recap

Post by patrix »

Recap on TC Vendors as a check I am reading it correctly..
Place a vendor: 1 off fee of 60k
Weekly Rent: 30k
Sales Tax: 3% on sale of item.

Essentially the sales tax replaces the daily fee that was charged for total price of items held on the vendor?

You're correct, michi, the sales tax replaces the previous daily fee. The daily fee was based on the total list price of all items for sale on the vendor. The sales tax is a flat 3% per item, based on the list price of that item, and is only paid when the item sells. It is always 3%, regardless of how long the item sat on the vendor before sale.

The only time the 3% changes, is if the item sale price is too low for the system to charge it correctly. The minimum of any given currency it can charge is 1- 1 gold, 1 token, 1 ED, 1 elven note. So, if you post something for 10ED, the system can't charge lower than 1ED for the sales tax, so you will essentially pay a higher tax on those items. IMO it's best to list lower-cost items like that for gold or tokens so you pay the actual 3%.

Hope that helps :)
