I know that characters don't start with 10 slots at the consignment house since last night my 1st level MM went to the Black Market and had 1 slot. I'm pretty sure that it's 2 slots at level 2 but I'll try to find out. Torin23 21:57, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

You are correct! :) We have the progression over on Leveling Chart but for some reason it wasn't linked to from here. I just fixed it. -- Sekoia 22:33, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

House?

Why is Wentworth's called a Consignment "House" and not a Consignment Shop? Consignment goods are brokered at Consignment Shops, auctions take place in Auction Houses. Is it that people who play MMOs are just used to calling the place where players sell goods to other players a "House?" Do the Wentworth's employees refer to it as a "House?" Do people in reality call Consignment Shops "Consignment Houses?" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lorax (talkcontribs)

Wentworth employees refer to their place of employment as "Wentworth's Fine Consignments". The villain side equivalent is referred to by its workers as the "Black Market". "Consignment House" is a more general term that includes both Wentworth's Fine Consignments and the Black Market. The term "Consignment House" is used because that's the term the devs gave for it. For example: [1] So I suppose you'd have to ask a dev to find out why they're called that. :) -- Sekoia 00:11, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
