Second Life Vendor Systems are used to sell items to customers. They range from the basic level systems which only sell, to large advanced networked systems with many functions and capabilities.

There's several vendor systems available in Second Life, and each has its benefits and drawbacks. This page will attempt to compare some of them. All systems are sorted in alphabetical order.
