I am here at eden 2f, to buy Body certs and upgrade gears. I see a shop open on ragial next to me. And here on the same cell there is another shop. Someone once said that with bots shops can be overlapped on the same cells. 

Its either an abuse or stupidity. I know people do bot vending to go around constant disconnection while afk with vend. But this also brings up that your shop can still be not useful.
Or if some one is trying to bot vend over you, its an abuse and should speak up :v .

Assuming bot shops can overlap, don't know if its true or not personally that it can be done. But sure do see two shop at same cell on ragial and 2 chars at same cell in game while one of the shops up. Seen this sorts many times.

It might also be some vendor who just logged in and opened his shop without moving and checking whether someone else already sits at the same spot as himself. However, the older shop is the clickable one, to prevent abuse (opening a shop purposely on top of someone else to grief him).

I've seen people use phantom thrust with a rk to burry shops under other shops. I think they do it to trick people through ragial and to underprice stuff that can't be bought. Kinda like when people troll vend with max zeny.

i often got overlapped when vending at eden f2. and it made people cant see my shop. i often thinks they're bot also, how come a human player logged in and noticing he was stomping other people ass then opening a shop on purpose. at least move 1 cell away from me.

Stacking shops doesn't tell you anything about whether someone is a bot.

Phantom thrust only works on people in your party, so it's not really abusable. You can achieve the same effect by clicking on an offscreen cell.

Before going to bed I always set up an extra vend, stacked on top of one of my other vends, selling the exact same item. That way I can vend a greater quantity without taking up more space.

If people can't see your shop, that means the other person logged in before you.

Some one over lapped me once when i made a vend next to ren's shopping spot but my shop still showed over that person so i pmed that person and told them that i cant see ur shop. The person responded and apologized and moved one cell south of me and that fixed the issue.

Usually it is people not paying attention to when they log onto a vendor. I've noticed it a few times way back, where I would wake up after a night of vending and see a shop over my Merchants head. Back then I didn't have a second account, so got my friend to double check for me, and sure enough my shop was the one to be seen. Love the log in priority for that.

Yea, not only is that guy not going to sell any items....but also be accused of being a bot?! XD

 

My god, the number of times I've rushed and setup a shop underneath someone, only to come back to 50 PMs of people laughing at me or wondering where my shop was =[

It is impossible to bot vending unless you are a professional programmer with macro. I tried once and the least I can do is selling 4 items with same price, and cannot stack with each other. Inbox me if you can do it!

how to buy in a Overlapping shop?
 
(I already read all the comments but still do believe it is intentionally done, the cheapest always the bait "it obviously not a coincidence").  
 
​honestly I start videoing this two player  and leaving a message both of them....
after this maintenance (2nd up coming video) same names & same bait ( can I now send this as a proof?)



VModCinnamon:
Greetings, please let the staff know about the issue you are facing in-game through a support ticket. While I don't believe "overlapping shops" alone is warranted for GM action, however, you may explain properly how that may cause problems from a buyer point of view. As a side note, please do not bump old topics!

​Do not hesitate to send me a PM if you have further questions. Thread is now locked.
