Bulletproof?

What happened to him? I've been going through the vendors list the last few days and as of today all his stuff is gone. Did I miss something? It seems like other vendors are missing too as of today. Spring cleaning of the vendors?

they probably realized the market isn't as big as they originally thought. give it another year or two. we'll start seeing more parts for the yaris.

I guess.

I was just hoping for a better story. Like he was trafficking drugs in his car parts and the yarisworld admins joined forces with the Federal govn't to launch a huge sting. The results of which brought down the four largest Columbian drug cartels and brought about civil war in South America. Thus leading to his lack of vendorship.


But whatever.

i trimmed down our list today after noticing that there were a lot of vendors gone from the site. i'm sure they're welcome back if they left on good terms, wouldn't take much to add them back to the list. i'm just wondering what their motivations were for leaving.

Not enough demand for Yaris parts, not worth the cost of advertising...

Just wait till The Fast and the Furious 4: Econobox Drift hits the cinemas, we should see a bit more demand for this kinda stuff

If it's a vendor, I'm pretty sure they have to pay some sort of annual amount to have that label. If that vendor isn't selling enough items, they may find that annual amount too high for the amount they end up making.

I'm wondering if they do have to pay a fee to become labeled as a vendor.
