1.- It's a game.
2.- Sometimes people are struggling to play the game, rp, farm reagents and it takes them more time to refill their shop, and it's not fair to push them because they don't have 10+ or more hours to get online to spend it farming and then restock rapidly their shops.
3.-Everybody has their own time.
Of course, this doesn't excuse people that neglect their shops for 2 or more weeks, which is not the case most of the time.
Yes! I pointed out that there are a few there that restock occasionally, but a surprising amount of those actually don't from what I've seen as- I'm a regular market goer. To name a few, Goods and Chattels, Unknown Building, Aries' Eats, General Store (well, I see their stock change so maybe? But it's always low.), Imagine's Items, Joyous Wares, Almost Alchemist Barbara, Aencient Alchemy, and New Cheap Ratty Deals!
Mind you, I'm not considering adding 1-3 items every few days as a restock. I see these shops consistently low on supplies or having items unpriced/overpriced in that they will practically never sell.
To add to this, there are a few completely new shops that people bought and aren't even really using after the newest update!
While yes, it's a game, and yes everyone has their own time and others are struggling, you can't tell me every single one of these fall into the category of irl problems. Yes, some of them are, and it's completely understandable. But many of them also, are not, and are just people using them because they want a stall even though they only have trash to sell. Like, c'mon. There's even two new shops that opened up under the same name, so clearly there's a group working together- and their stock still leaves a lot to be desired!
I literally made Aencient Alchemy yesterday and stocked it with what I had on hand with prices I literally picked out of a hat because I didn't have time to run around and check every shop in the game, it literally *cannot* have had 'frequent problems' because it just came into existence.
It's low because I noticed it open after having either used, sold, or gifted most of my potions to people in recent days.
People have lives outside of running a fictional IG Economy and a shop being 'full' doesn't mean it's good.
You should check out my later post where I said I also included quite a few new shops! It's fine to have weird prices, as long as you fix them! Also, yes! People do have lives outside of Eternia, as do I. But I also realize I could play this game for 2 hours a day and still easily run a functioning stall and keep it well stocked with at least a page full every three days!
I'm not overlooking what you said about recently having given out your potions, I'm just stating that a lot of people are absolutely slacking on their shops, or just getting them for no reason. If you're not in that category, don't feel attacked! I screenshot SO many shops not to target them, but to make a point at how many shops there are around Esshar that are just sad to look at.
