Selling to Merchant! - Guild Wars Forums

Is there a way to prevent accidental selling to the merchant? I get nervous when i have my 15^50 chaos axe sitting in my bag only one click away from selling for 300~ gold, losing out on around 200k!

Never came across a way to prevent selling, or locking items. And i have not accidently sold something yet...."knock on wood"

Talk to the merchant, and click the "sell" window, you should see your currently equiped gear, Backpack, Belt Pouch, and 2 bags. Click on anyone of them to disable them from being shown to the merchant.

Just put it on storage or the other thing that i do and is pretty cool is to leave a quest item[tapestry gwen's]for example and from that item and down there valuable items that i don't want to sell so i spam click and i sell whatever i want and i know when i end is when i can't sell anything beacuse the tapestry is blockin it [pretty cool ha?]

Yea most people "seperate" their sellable things and keepers by a non-sellable item like a quest item or preorder item.

that way when you are pounding sell, it'll stop at the non-sellable and you dont have a chance to sell your keeper items.

Yes, at the top of the trade window you can click on the different icons to enable and disable showing the merchant your backpack, belt pouch, bags, and equipped items. It is out of the way so most people don't even know it is there.
