Earlier today, a newbie (dude named Devon, an assassin) was attacked by his guild's vendor (dresher). Being the ignorant fellow i am, i went to Dresher to loot his corpse while he was down. interestingly, dresher had looted to toddler, and was selling his items. The lesson appears to be that Guild Vendors loot the dead - leaving a fascinating amount of stuff in thier inv, which is also used as thier sales stock. Unfortunatly, this doesn't give unlimited stuff - wish it did (imagine BUYING demon gear) - but it does give all the prices, at the usual 120% marku (in guild halls that is - as a freind pointed out, shops are set at a variable amount. See my

Of course, there is one slight problem with this - you can't (easily) get the value of invis/hidden items (demon armor, ect). Quite annoying - but a reasonable limitation. A possible work around is to use the Necromancer Guild Shopkeeper - or another vendor that sees invis/hidden.
