Overview

interact with vendor vendor out of range buy/sell after talking

Noun: Any NPC who buys and sells items. Trainers are not technically vendors, even though they sell recipes, since they do not buy anything.

Verb: Also sometimes used as a verb for selling to a vendor, as in, "I'm just going to vendor this axe, since I can't use it." For quick use as a verb, sometimes only "V" is used to mean "vendor it" or "V?" for "vendor it?" Items that have no use other than selling to a vendor are called Vendor trash.

Repairing

Some vendors can repair armor durability damage (usually vendors who sell armor and weapons, but often those who sell blacksmithing, engineering, and leatherworking supplies).

As of Patch 2.3, your pointer changes when you move it over a repair-capable NPC:

Buyback

If you sold an item, you can buy it back for the same price at which it was sold by clicking the Buyback tab and right-clicking the item or dragging it back to your bag. You can repurchase up to 12 items that you have sold to a vendor. The items (up to 12) since you last logged in will persist. When your character leaves the game or zones to a different area, this list of items will be cleared, so if you have accidentally sold something, don't wait to buy it back. Buy it back immediately.^[1]

Discounts

As of Patch 2.3, all vendors with an associated faction now give discounts at all levels above neutral.

• Friendly: 5% discount
• Honored: 10% discount
• Revered: 15% discount
• Exalted: 20% discount
