Maerassarth Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 (edited) If I acquire the Thana Vesh leggings, bracers, belt and feet from packs or buying them, then acquire the chest via the Contraband Resale vendor, will the set be added to my collections? Or does it only count for the authentic set pieces? Edited November 9, 2013 by Maerassarth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y-Yorle Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I've bought the entire set via contraband vendor and got the unlock (eventually) in my collection window. It took some time for the unlock to happen though (think days). Not sure why that was... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathstalker_ Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 In my experience, items from the Contraband Vendors doesn't unlock in Collections. I wasted 4 Cartel Certificates and 25k buying a Satele Shan Holostatue from the Contraband Resale Corporation, and it never unlocked in Collections. I actually had to go and buy the version that originally came in a pack off the GTN to have access to it in collections. I remember reading somewhere that Collections only works on Cartel Market items; since the Rep versions of these items aren't Cartel Market items, you can't use them to unlock the items in Collections.

AlrikFassbauer Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Strange, because in the Collections there *are* a few reputation vendor armours ... like the Voss armour ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBerling Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 That's not the same armor as the Voss rep vendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathstalker_ Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 All I know is I no longer trust Rep Vendors as far as I can throw them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y-Yorle Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 the collection windows of resale corp? and if so were you able to unlock it for alts? As I said, I bought the items from the vendor via certificates + credits and have the unlock in my collections window via which I can distribute the set to my alts. Not sure if there's another collection window I'm not aware of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahkreeah Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 This will most likely NOT work. The reason is that the Thana Vesh armour (or any item) from the resale vendors are a different version, namely that with a bind-on-pickup stat and the resale icon. This is further hinted at in the collections menu where that particular item appears under the <cartel pack name> header. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlrikFassbauer Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I have seen now that it doesn't work, too. Reputation Vendor things seem to be different than those from the Cartel Market. But - I still don't understand inhowfar this set is different from the one coming from the Reputation Vendor ? Were there any changes in the look ?
