sry for the bad bad english

No, it doesn't.
Assuming that each iron ingot is 5gp, one heater shield use 18 ingots, so it's 90gp. In vendor you will pay this price plus 15% (vendor markup) = 103.5gp.
When selling, you will sell for 85% = 76.5gp.
In the best case, your best quality crafted heater shield will be sold for 76.5gp, if the quality is poor, much less you will get for.

Smelting a heater shield should give you 9 ingots, or 45gp.
One katana uses 8 ingots then you will make one katana with 90gp and selling it for "40gp - 15%" = 34gp.

So, why someone will buy something for 104gp and sell for 34gp ? 70gp of difference. No money gain, just maybe skillgain.

But, I THINK that buying items from vendors you CANNOT smelt them.
Don't remember =D
