While this may seem like reasonable request ... its not. :-/ Your prices are reflecting your reputation in said city ...
It's a totally reasonable request. Thing is, it has no real effect, other than what character you choose to start the interaction with.
You talk to the merchant with the character that gets the best discount. While in the buy/sell window, you can switch between characters and pass items from one character's inventory straight into the one that gets the best discount. You don't even have to back out of the transaction screen. So the reputation for the individual characters has zero effect. The way it's set up now, it just adds unnecessary tedium by forcing you to pass items between inventories. It doesn't stop you from still getting the best price. So they should just change it so no matter what inventory you're selling from in the active party, the price is set by the rep of the one that interacted with the trader to start the buy/sell process.
*edit* Somehow missed all the previous responses. Not sure what happened there, as I refreshed the page. Anyway, I see the conversation has gone beyond my response long ago... :P
