The two categories above both serve the same purpose of listing every character who actively vends items to the player. The only difference is that one of them lists the vendors that do not have a brick-and-mortar store and the other one lists the vendors that do - I think, anyways, as the categories don't actually have a definition of what a shopkeeper or a merchant actually is. Still, that distinction is really arbitrary and not particularly beneficial. Both [[Dazzle]] and [[Niff T.]] sell items to the player in the same manner; slotting them into different categories makes them seem as if there's more of a distinction than there actually is. Practically, there's no difference, and functionally, there's no benefit. Therefore, I want to merge the two together. | The two categories above both serve the same purpose of listing every character who actively vends items to the player.

#{{User|Camwood777}} - This really feels like one of those categories that only came about because someone didn't know we already had a category, but they used a different term, so now we're stuck with both. A merge is pretty obviously in order. | #{{User|Camwood777}} - This really feels like one of those categories that only came about because someone didn't know we already had a category, but they used a different term, so now we're stuck with both.
