Well, regarding Player Vendors, there really isn't any mechanism other than shouting for that. Most just use the Auction Hall.
The Trade island is near the Pirate island but not part of it. In general Trade Packs are worth more the further they are carried from their origin point. But value is also reduced on how many of that type of pack have already been turned in that day.
Leveling is really not that Grindy. Just quest hubbing will easily hit 50 fairly smoothly, about 1 hour per level 15-35, 36+ it gets slower, but nothing llke Lineage/EQ or even WoW vanilla. Everything earns XP, Gathering, Crafting, PvP, Mob killing... So figure 50-70 hours to max level based on char skill and dedication.
The grind enters with getting the gear to be the best at whatever you are doing. Be it Crafting or Adventuring, the top level and quality gear will NOT come fast.
