Just wondering if & when there was an item dupe in swg.

ya with the ADK's

way back there was also a dupe, by using the vendor, cant remeber what it was, but it concerned resources.

I managed to dupe on accident once. My sister was cleaning downstairs and unplugged my CAT5 from the router down there, exactly the same time as I was placing an item on the Vendor. I came back to the game with the item on my vendor and in my inventory. I tried to reproduce this, to no avail.

Dupes can be tough in SWG though. Cuz everything has a number.

Yes, there was at one point an item dupe, but it was mainly resources that you could dupe. It used an old, long ago removed command that was originally from beta. You could target yourself and type in /ui action terminalUse Bazaar, and you could essentially use yourself as a bazaar terminal.

You had to have several thousand of the resource on you, and the cap on the bazaar for pricing at the time was 3,000 credits. You could put the stack of resources up there for X amount, but the kicker was that the resource would split in your inventory, since YOU are, in effect, the terminal. When someone (normally an alt or a friend) would try to buy the resource, it would say the resource was unavailable, but the seller would receive the money (this idea led to the vendor item pull credit dupe), and the buyer would get a monetary refund. Also, the seller would get whatever amount of resources he was selling inserted into his inventory, even though the resources were already there.

It was a nifty, tricky little sploit to pull off, but paid off in the end. There wasn't much up front cash to make, 3k at a time, but you could dupe a ton of resources provided the first digit preceeding the K would change, i.e. 14k iron becomes 13k iron. That was it.

I know there was an exploit pulling weapons from a factory crate as well, but I cant remember that for the life of me, and the one I knew has been fixed since long before the CU.

If you drop you Banner in a house you can pick it up and trade it or place it on a vendor. I still goes poof after 5 mins though.
The GCW Banner in your inventory stays there.

hehe go play
