[REQUEST] All Antiquity Furnishings be available for Sale to NPC Merchants

I think it would be a very welcome feature to make all Antiquity furnishings available to sell to the Achievement Furnisher.

When the ability to buy leads was first announced, I personally assumed there would be a brand new NPC merchant, an Antiquities Dealer. And a way to "explain" how this dealer came to have so many leads available or a shop full of "Antiquities" would be that we would be able to sell all our dug up furnishings to said merchant.

I was a little disappointed that it was just tied to the Achievement furnisher.
I don't have a problem with the requirement to finish the Codex and finish the achievement in order to buy the leads.

But honestly, after a certain point, it's just not worth digging up these things for many of us, and therfore found leads popping up on the screen become less exciting, or not exciting at all.

I know some of the Antiquity furnishings are sellable to a general merchant, but most aren't. Admittedly I don't know why that is. But I'm asking that it would be considered to add in a future update that all Antiquity Furnishings be sellable to an NPC merchant, or even only to the achievement furnisher if that would be easier.

Many of us aren't really all that into housing, but we do enjoy finding things. And the biggest benefit to finding things to us is the gold we can make off of what we find.

I accept that these would remain bound, as they are now.
It would be fair that the current price range on the sellable Purple and Gold furnishings (similar to stealable furnishings) would remain the same. But just be added to ALL Antiquity Furnishings.

I actually really enjoy the Antiquities feature in the game, but after a certain point repeatedly finding leads for something I don't need takes the excitement out of it.

Just an idea on how to spark interest in the Antiquity System for some of your less Housing-enthusiastic players.

    Some can be sold, although I think that's not an intention, but more of an oversight. I really wish we could sell all of them. I still have over 100 of those Coldharbour void-crystal things I don't really need (that lead drops so easily, I always use it if there's a daily or weekly endeavor about excavating purple or golden items).

    You can't buy LEADS from the Achievement Furnishers.
    What you are able to buy from them after completing a particular codex is the antiquity itself.

    As far as I know, the only place you can buy leads at the moment is the vendor in the lobby of the Infinite Archive.

      Nitpick: several zones have a lead for a map furnishing for sale.

      My mistake. I've never bought one. A friend was farming Antiquities in order to buy from the achievement furnisher, and I could have sworn they said leads not the furnishings themselves.

      I'm very glad the devs added the option of buying antiquity furnishings from achievement furnishers once the codex is completed. It annoys me, though, that not all furnishings can be bought: the fossils from Necrom and Apocrypha and the petrified watcher don't become available for purchase even after you complete their codex entries.
