Selling through Broker

Silly question. I've never tried selling anything through the broker. It says I need some sort of special vendor container? What is that and where do I get one?

There are two basic options when selling through the broker.

1) Get any bag or chest (such as you keep in your bank vault) and place them in the vendor slots in the broker window. this will allow you to sell things via the broker.2) There are also specialized vendor containers you can buy. These come in several varieties. Some will only hold certain kinds of objects (jewelry, weapons, armor... based around what tradeskillers might sell mainly) or a general 'salesmans crate'. The salesman crate holds anything but has less slots for objects than the more specialized containers. The advantage of this catagory over regular bags and chests is that you can also place these in your room as furniture peices. People can then go to your room and purchase directly from the containers even while your offline, thus avoiding paying brokers fees.Hope that helps a bit!

The container you refer to can be any bag or box.

Open the broker window and click the sell tab. In the top left corner there is a box with 6 smaller boxes in. DEpendant on the size of house you have you can have 1 to six of these slots available. Just put a bag or box into one of these slots, then drag and drop the things you wish to sell into the bag. Set a price you wish to sell the item for and away you go .

You can use any bag or storage chest. If you can afford salesman crates you can place these in your home, then people can visit you to buy at a reduced rate (cutting out the brokers cut).
