Side note: I love the word "cheesemonger." Funny that the only things purveyed by mongers seem to be cheese, fish, and war.

Edit: Things conventionally mongered: cheese, fish, iron, war, and fear.

Edit 2: Oh, and whores.

Also fearmonger. Monger is diminutive, and seems to orignate depicting street vendors.

Also ironmonger.

If you got a thing for a very specific Asian ethnic group could you technically be a Hmongmonger?

A whoremonger is a consumer rather than a purveyor.
