Buyback for fences

✭✭✭
Is there any reason why there is no buyback option for fences?
I realise that one could contrive any number of supposedly 'real-life' reasons, but a) very few if any players would know about what one can or can't do with real-life fences, so frankly any dogmatism about that is suspect, and b) it's no more or less realistic than buyback from normal vendors and is simply a quality of life issue that seems needed here.
(As you can probably work out, I accidentally sold something I wanted to launder - mea culpa, and n.b. I am not complaining or asking for redress, merely wondering why the option isn't there).

✭✭✭✭✭I don't know why it isn't there, but I like it.
I've developed the habit of going to the Launder tab first, laundering everything I need and then mindlessly fencing everything else.

Dekkameron✭✭✭✭✭The reason you can't buy things back from a fence is that you get Legerdemain exp from selling things to them as well as it going towards achievements.
If you could buy back stuff they would have to remove exp etc from you which is pretty dubious.- Veteran Combat Librarian -13 -

Thanks Dekkkameron for the answer - that makes sense. I'll just be more careful from now on!

✭✭✭✭✭I like the mechanic. Makes it seem more shady.

That's right... Horse.

Actually selling any blue or purple item to the fence triggers that prompt each time... at least for me. I'm not sure if gold items do as well.0 -
