Sales Carts
Sales Carts
Is it possible to have a sign saying whose sales cart you're looking at? Sometimes I want to buy things from the carts, but I also don't necessarily want to support a merchant who no longer plays. Much rather support the active community.
Also, some players may refuse to buy from others for RP reasons. If you don't want the owner known that's fine, but it would be good to know if that's the case.
Thanks!

Re: Sales Carts
I like this idea, but I'd also like it if the sales-carts looked a bit nicer as well. We have to work hard to get the ability to use those carts, and then we sell some pretty nice items from them, so it'd be nice if they looked a bit better than they do now. Also, it'd be nice if the assistant were a bit nicer and provided more information on each object, especially since the quality object on weapons can be changed, so you may not know what quality a weapon is just based off of its name. A short, custom description would be nice too. In the shops, when you use order to ask about something, it will give you a short description about the item, then give the actual 'examine' properties. It'd be nice if we could make our own short descriptions.
Re: Sales Carts
Sales carts are going to go away, to be replaced by consignment stores in the major cities, which is why I haven't changed them (I completely agree they shouldn't be rickety).

Re: Sales Carts
Consignment stores? You mean we will actually be able to own a -building- to sell our stuff in? Sweet!
Re: Sales Carts
Um, no.
"Consignment is the act of consigning, which is placing any material in the hand of another, but retaining ownership until the goods are sold..."

Re: Sales Carts
So we don't own them directly, but I'm guessing they will be owned by the Coalition so that only traders may sell there, so we kinda still inderectly own them. lol Still, I like the idea. Will the ability to sell from them still be an abilty that must be earned through promotions, or will they be free for use for any new trader?
Re: Sales Carts
You can count on it not being free. The Coalition doesn't want to give free stuff to members, it wants to make money off them.
The lore compels me!
Re: Sales Carts
This thread makes me a little bit /sad panda. I'd love to be able to own my own actual store or shop.
I'd pay really well for it too! Such a thing should be a pretty big investment.
Having a mobile sales cart is nice too, I just hope they aren't gotten rid of before a good replacement is available.

Re: Sales Carts
I'm sad at the loss of carts/shopfronts. Consignment seems like it will be a high-end pawnshop?
