[Suggestion] Icon/tooltip indicating if an item can be bought from a vendor

[Crim2989]

well that was an entertaining read.

From a crafter's perspective : did the research, found the latest niche and its profitable till someone else comes in and undercut's or comes in with a massive stack of the same item offered and regulates the avg price. Generally you wont see them resale new NPC items, less the new item now sells for more faster then what they are already selling .. not effective for them to oversell and make a profit of 20k per stack per day when a end game item would net more...or they need to the slot to sell less quantity faster.

From a new guy perspective : great way to make an extra buck, low risk and decent return without having to constantly monitor when you have someone help you out in novice network on what products currently move. also a decent way to re-invest and get mats faster to level crafting. If nothing else have the gil you need for repairs/teleports and NPC gear upgrades while leveling.

From the casual perspective : notice's the price inflation and unable or willing to save a buck by looking it up , no remorse. However lets say they don't have the craft/gathers leveled and are low on money with no beast tribes done and no access to housing for mats as well. Here is a legit need for help... best option get into an FC that is willing to help you... hands down they can help you move easier past this hump and be more self sufficient, and not need to rely on crazy weekend prices. And yes if you don't already know prices adjust on Many items over the course of a week to take advantage of well the casual players.

problem truly lies in an unregulated free market..which is why you see items on the MB for 80% or higher over the cost the craftier paid, little less for HQ as you run the real risk of loosing mats on failed attempts. Anything penta melded...depending on rng can cost a huge amount as well.
