I’m pretty sure this is a bug, but almost every karma vendor you can run across in cities and towns only sells food ingredients. Even two karma vendors a short walk away will have the same selection.
Now, I’m sure that these are not supposed to be the case and should have things pertaining to where they are(like ore at one spot, cloth at another….) but this has remained in its current state for a while now.

Things like ore, wood, cloth, etc. can not be bought from Karma vendors. Typically, you can find things like cooking ingredients, armor/weapons, or other items such as gathering tools from Karma vendors.
