Tuk’s Vendor Directory Post 5
VIP VENDORS
Location: The VIP Lounge on both fleets...reachable only if you have a VIP Lounge Wristband which go for 1,000,000 credits at the fleet cantinas...be advised that these wristbands are NOT legacy bound which means you will have to purchase additional ones for your alts. Vendor’s Name: Baron Lorn (Imperial) / Nehimmo (Republic) Initial Thought: These vendors came out with the original release of the game and haven't been updated or given any sugar since launch, which means they are nearly forgotten vendors. Mounts: These vendors have only one thing on the shelf therefore they are competing with one another and honestly it is a wonder how they are able to remain in business. They are the only vendors in the galaxy that sells the Tirsa Prime for 2.5 million credits. This is one of the vehicles needed if you are an achievement hunter and want to get one of the three vehicles needed to get the Legacy: Possession: Vehicle “Tirsa Collector” Achievement. Final Thoughts: Due to the fact that there seems to be hundreds of mounts, these two are honestly not that attractive. So unless you are an achievement hound then this vendor has no value to the average consumer...thus, making the VIP Lounge nearly worthless...unless of course you are planning to have the Rakghoul Plague rain from above. Well my fine old friends, happy hunting and perhaps I will see you around...Tuk out.

I don't remember what quest it was, but sometime during my first few weeks playing the game, I had to go to the fleet bar to meet my contact. At the time, I had no idea I wouldn't actually see the NPC until the quest start, so I spent a good 20 minutes looking all around everywhere for this guy. I finally concluded that s/he must have been upstairs in the VIP lounge because there literally wasn't anywhere else to look and the elevator was dangerously close to the purple map dot. I spent the rest of the week getting my very first 1Mil, got the wristband (promptly broke again), went upstairs AND FOUND THIS GUY! LOL - talk about a royal disappointment and a major ouch "omg, did I just spend 1 MILLION Credits to get the quest wrong?!?" I stayed up there another 10 minutes I was so upset then went down the elevator to look around the bar again. Ironically, from the angle of the down-shaft, I was able to see.........the glowey/clicky bottle I was to have clicked on to start the quest. For free.
I look quests up now before I spend money to complete them. LOL

FYI - These vendors actually have been updated over the years . . . They have gotten worse. The ONLY thing worth having access to the VIP area is if you have the collectors edition and want to use that vendor, which is slightly less lame than the VIP vendor. Or to use the GTN, Cargo Hold, and Guild Bank, but you'don't be better off using the guild ship or your own stronghold.
Actually there is one more use for the VIP area: that is to jump down on unsuspecting people during Stage 2 of rack ghoul disease, which instantly kills you and speeds up the process.

Nerice...that sorry is hilarious haha
What have they taken away from the VIP vendors over the years?...to my knowledge they have only sold the vehicle.
The collector vendor is my next one I think. Regarding the Rakghoul Plague, this is the only reason I use the VIP Lounge.

If you spend $5 for the Digital Deluxe Edition, you get the wristband legacy wide automatically in the mail. That along with a mount and some useless unique toys.
