Morphology

vendible = vend (transparent) = vend + ible

The suffix '-ible' is a common derivation indicating capability, directly applied to the verb 'vend'.

Etymology

Vendible comes from the root vend- meaning 'to sell' and the ending -ible meaning 'able'. You can see the same root in vendor and vending, so vendible simply means 'fit to be offered for sale'.
