Items For Sale at Vendors

I am curious to know about items that are for sale at mechanic shops.

Do items there listed get refreshed there after a certain amount of time?

Do certain garages sell specific items, and maybe only a certain number per week?

For example, if there is one HMM listed for sale, if buy It will another take its place in a few days? or are items specifically dependant on people selling items to it?

Hope that makes sense.

Each mechanics garage sells the basics. The further south you go, there will be an increase in better gear available for sale. All items are on an auto replenishment. Each item is different as well as the town that it is produced in on its frequency and quantity.

To have a better chance at buying something better and more useful, go to GW and transport it back to SS. BL if you want more top of the line stuff.

Does stuff that you sell to the mechanic become available for purchase later on?

I think they do.

Also in case you don't know about rep points, you can spend them in the auto parts store to get items before they're available to everyone else.

They do. When a player quits they sometimes dump goods into the mech shops and there a briefly tonnes of non spawning items available. I once bought a laser in the FL me how shop which I assume was sold to the shop by a player.

There must be some kind of filter on that then, because SS isn't flooded with HMGs, for example.

Could it just be that some items spawn very rarely?

Very good question. No idea. We know it happens with lorries and buzzers etc... I have dumped multiple lorries on the mech before a direct seen the lorry count in the store increase. I would guess that it doesn't add weapons that were still on a sold loot car.

There are weapons, engines and chassis that will not be available in SS, even if you sell them to the mechanics shop.
If everything was available in SS, no one would ever leave SS and turn DW into a one town game.

So, filter then. Is it just SS that is filtered, or do different towns have different filters?

All towns do, BL is where you can find best variety and higher end items.

Remember that most players wont see a lot of these items unless you have hero points.
