Right, finished this game a number of times and I keep thinking the same thing, if you haven't finished it, don't read any further.
Anyone else thought of this?
(Yes I know I'm reading into it a little much. But the merchant is cool "WEEELLLCOME stranger!" lol)
At the end of the game, when the island blows up and Leon escapes with Ashely, what happens to the merchant guy? Like, he obviously had the weapons to survive and handle himself against the Los Illuminados and stuff, but Leon must be a bit of twat, just leaving the guy who basically gave him the firepower to get through his mission. Poor fella. The island blows up, you don't see the merchant escape.....so does that mean the dude got blown up too?

Hmm,most-likely he did get away just after the moment when he last sodl you guns.Lols actually game maders think that gamers dont wonder about things like that,they just enjoy a gun seller,and most do not think,but i and seems like you are the ones who wonder about things like that.Think what you want,i think that he got away with private boat 


Oh, and i agree with the teleport thing. IIRC, on a Resi Evil forum someone had his backstory and he was infected with the plagas but was like Typhoid Mary so could keep them under control.
He at least deserved to survive the end of the game. Anyway, he's one of the most memorable video game characters ever to me. I don't know why.... But I really liked him.
