9.16 Interacting with shops about Avalon.
There is an abundance of shops dotted in and around the great cities and villages of Avalon. Many of the shops are run by the cities themselves, while others are owned by particular guilds and individuals. Not only is it possible to buy and from the shops, but you are also able to purchase and run your own shops. Contact the leaders of whichever city you wish to own a shop in and assuming they have one available, you could find yourself entering into a lucrative venture. Typically, those of the loremaster profession and those who can pick herbs and posions make the most money from running a shops.
GOODS To review a list of goods in a shop.
GOODS <item+num> To gain information about a specific item.
GOODS <itemtype> To review a list of goods in a shop by specific type of item.
BUY <item> To buy a specific item from a shop.
STOCK <item> To gain a list of all items of a specific type for sale.
Remember to include the item number, e.g. "ham876" when purchasing or requesting information. This avoids confusion when, for example, a shop is selling a variety of similarly named items. Remember, also, shopkeepers, you cannot stock your shop with more than two hundred and fifty different items - stockrooms are not designed to boast more than that many products for sale. Finally, be wary when purchasing steeds or pets via a shop. If the steed/pet had previous loyalty to some other individuals (perhaps it was stolen from its former owner) then that loyalty is likely to carry over even when you buy it. It may be that your new purchase is not interested in your company at all.
