In reference to the Social, here are places where you can find research on your items... General rule: The more expensive/rare the item, the more likely you are to have trouble with it. Also, the more popular the item--if its not famous, a thief isn't anymore likely to know where it comes from than a trader.

>>no trader should be holding or selling any Ambika item.

Let me first state that I do respect Ambika's decision to make her wares solely for a former guild.

With that, I think that Ambika, and future merchants, should allow Traders to be able to hold these items, after all, Traders can be considered reselling merchants (market tables/auctions).

Along the lines of Solomon's "What if...", what if there are evil (oriented) Traders; one of their roles were to smuggle or distribute/supply a former guild with weapons. Something along the lines of an Ilithian Bard.

It could bring connections within a guild and a former guild closer together.

Well, this is just part of my argument to have merchants put Traders into account when they're peddling - they are indeed affecting the economy; and as players in the economy, we'd like to be apart of it.
