Default Weapon mod merchant and decustomize option

We definitely need a merchant for weapon mods. I've been trying to sell a perfect fortitude mod for an axe and a perfect sundering bow string for weeks, but no one ever seems to want it. I'd love to be able to just go to a merchant and dump it like I do with runes. Quicker and easier solution for those of us who'd rather spend our time playing than trying to barter with people (trading is my most hated part of this game, and every other rpg. I just do not like it at all, and always end up getting ripped off).

Also, a decustomize option for customized weapons we no longer use would also be great, which is why I imagine this has been asked repeatedly.

The weapon mod trader would be really helpful. I've got a guildie whos been trying to find an imperfect vamp axe haft to pair with his 15%/-1 hp regen axe for over a month now (he doesn't want to pay full price when hes only after the degen). Its just to hard to find the near perfect mods, which are good enough if you don't want to pay full price for the perfect ones.

The only problem I can see with the weapon mod trader is it getting cluttered up. The easy solution to that is to have a seperate trader for each weapon type.

As for decustomisation, you chose to customise it knowing you wouldn't be able to un-customise. Learn to live with the choices you made.

I don't understand the problem with wanting to decustomize something. What if a noob customizes something not knowing it can't be uncustomized, or trades for a customized weapon?

It is just plain idiotic not to be able to.

you customize something knowing that u are tied to that weapon forever. And a new player wouldnt trade for a customized weapon cause a lil alert comes up before u trade about the weapon.

think about the words, customize. It's like wearing used running shoes, it just doesn't fit. Now however if it was more like DnD where u would have an armor check roll for whenu didn't meet requirements. That would be cool. Like Using a custumized weapon for another character at a -10% damage. since custumizing it would make u simply better with the weapon, why not the reverse?

Another merchant is a ok idea, it could manage the economy i a bit better, and some n00bs would be less riped off. However i don't see it as needed. Not every item is perfect, it bad enough only perfect items are the only ones sellable, and every item will quickly become perfect and trading would be only for base items and such. Maybe im paranoid, but i like the ecomony the way it is.

The de-customization is one of the noobiest suggestions I ever heard, no offence. The whole point of customization is to make the weapon more powerful in your hands, at the exchange of not being able to sell it. Otherwise, why not just make all weapons with +20% damage?
This is truly, in my opinion, a suggestion made by people who want to have the most powerful weapons, and be able to sell them high as well.

It would mean that the +20% bonus would hold no real value. If you really thought about it, de-customization is realistically pointless. Crafters shouldn't get paid to make a weapon crappier.
