Both are actually correct, it is just the old and new version of spelling the word. Vender is the traditional way of spelling the word. With pronunciation it may depend on the origin of the speaker as different English speaking nations pronounces it differently. it is basically like to old adage of tOmato or tomAto, different people emphasize different parts of the word.

even when you check the collocation ' vendor's agreement ' online , there seem to be no options with -er . All of us often sign these particularly online ...but yes , vender is also possible in theory

both seem to be correct but I have seen the vendor variant often. Its Italian cousin is il venditore , la venditrice

I have never heard nor seen vender ....a street vendor ...a vending machine ...from vendere in Italian ...meaning to sell
To my mind both are correct. But VENDOR is more frequently used.
Vender is a variant of vendor
In simple words; Vendor : UK Vender : US
Both are correct - it's just a matter of British or American English, but if you realy want to expand your English try listening to Eddie VEDDER - lead singer of Pearl Jam.
It is vendor, for example like street vendor.
for me is no.. know your grammar before say it,,
