i tried fighting dragons with 95.3 magery... almost ca-pwned. i can't quite fight them yet. but, i did get some loot from looting those dragons with a friend who was helping. i put them in my jewelery, armor, and weapon venders. i also advertised for my vender by putting recall runes all around luna bank that are titled "Armor, Weapons, and Jewelery". will somebody eventually buy my loot?

The majority of the weaps/armor/jewels you will get from dragons isn't extremely high end stuff. You can probably sell it to newer players, if you price it very reasonable. Personally, I can't recall removing more than a couple bracelets/rings from drags that I considered worth keeping. FWIW.

The earlier posters had it right...unless you're selling higher end armor/weaps, I'd stick to regs, scrolls and maybe pots to sell. Another feasible option is to work up a mule on mining/lumberjacking, and sell resources. It's tedious, but you can do ok, especially with the higher end ingots/woods. JMO.

Only vendors I've ever had that made any money were horribly under-priced vendors (I sold decent-good-high end stuff) or Bags of Sending/Powder of Trans vendors. The Recall vendor I had was pretty decent also.

I tried the resources out (leather) but couldn't keep up with the demand, so it is viable if you have the gametime to keep up.

Being a merchant takes too much vested time IMO, but that's because I like killing. A successful merchant has to spend the time comparing prices/keeping stocked/knowing demand/keeping customers/attracting new ones.

agree with Dip, I like to kill not spend hours trying to stock my vendors, shoot, I have vendors at Kits and I havent' check them in a week,

It can be easier to rent a vendor spot from an established shop - then at least you don't have to worry about advertising and all that.
