Pawnbroker

Broker
A broker is a special type of vendor NPC. Brokers pay more for your items than other vendors do, but each broker only buys items of a specific category and base gold value.

Brokers also keep any item sold to them and put it in their sales inventory for other characters to buy. (They do buy, but do not resell, bound items.) Because of this, their lists of items for sale constantly change. At any given time they may offer items that cannot be found on ordinary vendors or on the Auction House. However, they charge a significant markup over the item's base value. Brokers have no stock items -- they only sell things that have been sold to them. Furthermore, brokers in each instance of a zone have separate inventories, and all brokers have their inventories reset once per day and any time their zone despawns.

Broker buy and sell prices are affected by your Haggle skill. They are not affected by whether you have completed their zone's vendor reputation quest. See the entry for the Haggle skill for more information.

Brokers do not offer the buyback feature that ordinary vendors do. If you sell an item to a broker by accident or you change your mind about selling it, the only way to recover it is to buy it back at the broker's asking price...and hope no one else bought it first.

Brokers do not buy gems, and they only repair items that they'll buy.
