I had this happen too, at the time sold something of high value to me (probably was laughable to the GMs at the time) and sent a petition in. I was told by a GM to try to buy back the items on the vendor, and I would find my precious.

After I burned through half my plat, it was pretty obvious the GMs were invisible standing behind me laughing their asses off at how dumb I was, so I stopped.

You will most likely waste your plats before getting your precious back. Do not do this. Do not send a guide a tell either, because they will not fetch your long lost precious.

Consider this a life lesson on p99 regarding vendors and your precious items. Be carfeful when selling to vendors!

Jimjam, I appreciate your generosity. However, since I am a coward, I play on blue.

Have you ever accidentally vendored something to a merchant and been unable to buy it back? I have twice in 24 hours. You would think I would have learned my lesson. Nope.

RIP Sword of the Morning and Arbitor's Combine Greatsword.

Can anyone top that?
One time, way back when, during original Velious times, I accidentally vendored my Lath Drinor (which was a big deal weapon for me, at the time) and used a Fine Steel Dagger for about two weeks before someone pointed it out for me in an upper dogs group. Oops.

Didn't we just have a thread like this a month or so ago? And didn't someone say that exact same thing ... only to have Cecily buy the item for like a k?

Not sure how "high traffic" this vendor is vs. that one, but just saying ...

I'm not asking for easymode buyback, but the current way vendor inventories work gives the person no chance of getting it back because a 50K item would easily hit that price point on a high traffic vendor.
Yeah, I said that too. Then Cecily found a JBB on Toxdil like an hour later for reportedly not very much plat.

Well, the guy is hurting from the loss of a 500pp sword, so I am thinking if he has to pour out 1k plats or more it aint going to be worth it, even if he could afford to pay out the vendor.
