Yeah, that happens a lot. Not like you can pick it up and sell it again though, so I've never bothered saying it was a bug.

No you can pick it up but the odd thing is now that every armor shop says they are not interested in it. WTF is that all about?

If something has been sold, it like gets a flag or something, and you can't sell it again.

Even if you buy something that was sold, I don't think you can sell it.

How do you think I make coin?

The junking doesn't matter. Half the time, the shopkeeps don't drop anything. It still respawns.

Get stuff. Sell it. Kill the shopkeep. Go get the same stuff again.

When you sell an item, it gains a certain flag.

This makes it unpurchasable AND gives it a decay timer.

If it is not purchased after a certain time period it decays and frees up system resources.

This is why some powerplayers murder shopkeeps and junk all the sold items, so that they respawn faster. Because in some situations, you might loot all the items an area can produce and they'll be tied up waiting to decay in shops.

This is also why stealing items from shopkeeps doesn't work. They keep their decay timer.

I personally do not like the things this mechanic keeps you from doing, but I can appreciate why its needed.
