But think of how much you would've made with the junk armor AND gems/scrolls.

Press "Push to enable", and every time you say "vendor sell", it will instantly sell anything it can from inside your hotbag to the vendor. Remember to set the sell limit to 5. Very handy.

You can also use the buy agent to do the same thing and buy out all the regs on a vendor the moment you say "vendor buy".

I didn't ask but thanks a ton!

That one was a response to Laz

Thanks dude. Thats awesome since I am a scavenger.

Yeah just leave a few regs for us little people instead of buying all 999 BP at once, thanks.

I just try to aim for 1k of each reg for each of my main characters. Thats usually enough to suffice. Maybe we can get some more uber lewts I can bump up to 2k.

I maintain about 300 of each reg on my main and restock occasionally. Although as I build wealth that'll probably go up to around 1000. Sweet baby Jesus, that's around 30k worth of regs.

Weird.... on my account I have 2k of ginseng and 3k of BP(those two suck to find) and about 5k of each of the other ones.

5k of each reg would last me a year.

I have 2 main characters that are mages and a dexxer that has about 50, hes my main main though and has all the loot so he has the most regs. I should probably move it all to my house to condense though.

Am I the only scrub who just buys regs as he plays?

I have a stockpile of macro regs I keep in my house (Lightning, EB, FS - especially FS), but I don't touch those unless I'm macroing a new char... the rest I just buy as I go I have enough regs in there to GM magery on a few chars, and maybe GM resist on a couple.

There are so many vendors that don't get bought out, that it's never been a problem to just buy another 50 of each EV reg, or whatever, when I need them. If I see large amounts of macroable regs, I'll buy them for sure.

Its just a hassle to go and buy 20 regs especially if you are farming. I'd rather keep all I need in the bank so I can farm, recall to bank, re up if need be and go back to farming. I always buy pearl, shade, and root in bulk if its available. Ash and silk too have been big ones since my secondary mage is still training the magery, its at 96 now.

Yeah too much running back and forth to buy 20 of this, 20 of that. Plus sometimes vendors are just sold out all over town (or multiple towns) of particular regs. So I keep about 300 of each on hand (and still feel like I spend too much time shopping).

I have, via scavenger, twice managed to accidentally pick up HUGE quantities of regs that somehow made it to the floor of the main mage shop in Brit.

I guess it would be nice to have huge stockpiles of regs like I used to keep on Gamers or OSI, it's just a pain keeping large amounts of regs in your house here, because of course they don't fit into a container, you have to lay them out on the floor and it looks messy.

I figure once I have a keep or something and I'm loaded with gold then I can afford to do that, but for now I'll just keep doing what I'm doing. Mostly laziness on my part though, I guess.

Some newbie tried to buy bulk and got over weighed so he probably hid them, or tried to hide them. Thats happened to me a couple times but I usually have a ton of junk like scrolls, weapons, etc, I just dump my junk bag on the ground and if you want it oh well but I aint droppin da regs.

Do I remember correctly that in UO, after Second Age, that reg prices CHANGED day-to-day and town-to-town? As in, BP wasn't always 5 gp, sometimes it was 4 and sometimes it was 7, depending on supply and demand?
