Rockhead Howling Wolf wanders the shop whilst having a philosophical discussion with the little shopkeeper about the medicinal merits of pouring sour whisky into your boots to cure the bunions.

he takes out and leaves a set of eagles jewellry (8664), a designer ring ( 460) and a pair of gargolye boots ( 24416)...

rummaging about he takes out a unicorn cloak ( 15132) a Mr Smashy hammer (3804) and a fire enhancement ( 6396) and 200 arrows (6400) and throws a bag of 3073ish coins in the tips chest.

Tinpin has a polite expression on his face, hiding his discomfort of speaking of bunions and sour whiskey with Rockhead.

"Sir, I assure you that apple cider vinegar will cure any of those sorts of ailments! Pour it into your shoes, rub it onto your feet, and drink it with water. It will take care of it all! Learned that from my mother, and its served my family well."

"Now, Rockhead, as to your trade, the lens pricing is used for non-crafted items. We generally use Cailomel's pricing for crafted goods, with some exceptions listed on our general flyer, such as for arrows, compound bows, wood shields, and special weaponry. Here are the correct values of your items:
two rings of eagle's splendor 1740 x 2 =3480
necklace of eagle spelndor 2140
a designer ring 460
and a pair of gargolye boots 24416
and I believe you placed two Dorand's Rings. They are valued at 720 each = 1440
giving you a trade credit of 31936

Mr. Smashy warhammer: iron warhammer 1250 + moderate silver enhancement 4440 = 5690. 75% of 5690 = 4,268. All weapons that are already enhanced are priced at 75% off.
Moderate fire enchantment: 4440
200 copper tipped stirge-feathered oak arrows = 300 value
unicorn cloak 15132
Total taken = 24,170
Giving you a Trade Credit of 7766.
Now, you paid 3073 True, but you only owed 2417 true, so feel free to take 656 True from the chest.
Thank you very much, Sir!"

After Rockhead leaves Tinpin works the ledgers fastidiously, checking prices and trade credits.

"I really need to make the signs in here more clear that customers should leave notes with the values of their goods as best as they know it."

Myrddan Trade Credit 318

Gilshem Ironstone
8,572 credit
-4000 for adamantium helm

Tinpin swiftly and neatly pens a note to Aynndel at the Fort Vehl Inn.
Sir, I thank you for conducting a trade at the Saddlebag Barter Shop. I regret to inform you that the shop can only hold two of any one item. Your donations of an iron mace, iron falchion, and tune of the harper put us over the two item limit. Please pick them up at your earliest convenience.)
Items taken:
silver and topaz ring 1500
wisdom ring (owls 2). 5340
scroll box. 260
Total = 7110
(paid 711)

Items placed:
+ iron chain shirt, 1500
+ book about destruction 10320 (I believe you placed the book with a few charges gone, yes? If not, and you placed the fully charged copy then the value is 13568 )
Total Credit = 11,820
- 7110 of items received =
Total Trade Credit of 4710

Thank you very much!

A pair of shiny new bracers lined with red scales is put in the "Gloves & Bracers" chest. A note is then tacked on top of the "Books, Wands, and Misc." chest.

I have taken three items that have struck my interest, they have been compensated for accordingly. A computation is detailed below:

Dragon Scale Bracers (T 78,232)

Broken Scales (T 40,696)
Healer's Hug x2 (T 12,860 x2 = T 25,720)

Total: T 66,416

Credit Remaining: T 11,816

10% Donation: T 6,641.6

If you need anything else, leave word at the Leringard Arms and Inn.

Riven · « **Reply #69 on:** October 09, 2011, 12:53:55 PM »

Tinpin speaks to Khaldir apologetically, "I'm terribly sorry Sir, but we cannot accept the Dragon Scale Bracers at that value. Riven has been speaking with other members of merchant guilds and he has come to realize that certain items are not any where near their Lens price value. If you'll peruse the bottom of our general flyer you'll see a few exceptions listed there, including Dragon Scale Bracers, which are valued at 15,000 True. There are other exceptions that aren't yet listed, and we intend to have a full price list by the time we move to a larger facility, closer to Center. Let me know if I can be of service."

in the early hours before dawn the orc Rhakt moves slowly from building towards the docks of leringard. catching a familiar smell of a person he knows he finds himslef at the doors of the trading company. Under spell of complete darkness and invisibility he prises open the door and wanders through the building. Taking out the cruelly curved sacrice blade he wanders past the cot of the small shopkeeper.

He stops and sniffs looking from side to side to catch the faint smell of the Al'Noth which he seeks. At the shopkeepers cot he spits on his finger and touches the sleepers face with taloned claw leaving a trail both of spittle goblin juices from his last meal and then licks his finger sensing for power. Sensing little power he moves on drawn by the aroma of magic in the chests beyond.

He opens a chest to find and hefts a large two handed blade in his great hand and moves on to the chest that smells of magic. lifting the lid he finds many small rings but none fit his fingers past the dark blue grubby talons encased in blood and grime.

He turns to leave and notices the skinny arm of the shopkeeper lying outside his tartan covers. " not even a tasty morsel to be had" he mumbles and trie sto out the blade in his pack. It wont fit and so he dumps the various pieces of bodies from the pack into the nearest chest and leaves as silently as he entered.

//left ladys Gift (7684), iron spear (2000?) and Plat reinforced clothing (7508) taking last defense.

When the shopkeeper finds the body Rhakt has left he'll notice the purse attached contains perhaps 10 percent of the blade value. I'd suggest the little one wash that day to avoid the rash which will follow the day after if he doesnt.

Tinpin awakens from a nightmare of zombies in the shop. He lights a lantern, and discovers the night watchman asleep. Waking him, he tentatively explores the shop, and is shocked and dismayed at discovering a corpse in a chest.

"Who could have left such a disgusting thing here?"

The watchman replied with a shrug, "could be someone who values corpses, and things we barter with corpses. Or tis a threat from a competitor...that we may end up like that." He grinned, enjoying Tinpin's discomfort.

"How can we dispose of it, without getting arrested by Leringard guards?"

"Eh," replied the watchman with a nonchalent expression, "Mayhap my drinking buddy in the lodge room could do it. He's a burly dwarf, but had a few too many last night, so he passed out next to the fire. I kin wrap the body in a sheet, and stuff it into his huge rucksack. And with a few bottles of ale, I bet he'll lug it out of town no problem."

Tinpin shakes his head in dismay, but agrees to the plan. He then dutifully checks the rest of the chests, and notes in the shop ledger the missing and new items.

Taken: Last Defense great sword 2500
Given: Lessor Lady's Gift 7684
Iron Spear 500
Platinum Reinforced Clothing 2752
Total Given: 10,936
Trade Credit: (-2500) = 8436
Minus 100 for clean up expenses and disposal of corpse = 8336

A nondescript human walks in and places a small ornate canister bearing a scroll inside. He slips a letter to Tinpin then walks away without a word.

A high level scroll has been provided to offset my balance. Given the price of 9th level scrolls, this one should be sufficient. I relinquish this Disjunction scroll with a value of 57,000 Trues.

Bron strode in, a pair of boots in his hands and a exasperated expression on his face that became even more exasperated when he discovered there already were 2 of those same boots in the chest. However, upon discovering a hickory pipe his expression changed to excitement.

"Well! heard about these, not seen em. What's the price Laddo?"

Tinpin replied with strained politeness, "I believe it has a 100 True trade value, Sir."

"Done. I've got trade credit with ye, and I'll lay 10 True in the pot. Ye should traffic in all kinds o pipes and pipeweed!"

Tinpin nodded, "True enough sir. I do hope a pipemaker starts giving us more pipes. And as to pipeweed, we will be moving soon, and expanding to include craftable resources, such as pipeweed, sand, wood, and much more."

Bron peered at the little halfling. "where ye moving to lado? Hope its not MORE out of the way than this place!"

The shopkeeper shifted uncomfortably, "er...Riven hasn't told me yet sir. I believe he wants to move somewhere closer to Hempstead, Center, or Fort Wayfare, but we haven't yet found the site. I'm sure he'll be posting flyers about it as soon as we do."

"Well, that be a good enough place, one o those. I'm off now, got some mining to do."

Tinpin coughed uncomfortably and then braced himself and spoke up as Bron was walking away. "Sir! er...if you please....I respectfully request you clean the mud and blood off your boots before you enter our establishment."

Bron scowled and kept walking, "eh? can't hear ye lado. Put a little more effort into yer pipsqueak lungs!"

Micus walks into the store and drops a bag of various items on the counter for Tinpin to go through.

Iron scimitar (1000), Essays of Enchantment (7016), Wand of Bulls strength (2024), Potion of Lore (480), Potion of Bulls strength (480), Star dust of Aeridin (600), Star dust of Lucinda (2800), Star dust of Grannoch (600), Star dust of Pyrtechon (600), Adepts stone Bronze (1768), Walking stick of the Hierophant (1200), Ring of bulls strength +1 (1740)

He then grabs an Electrical enhancement II (3140) from a chest. "I believe those items should more than cover this enchantment." He waits for Tinpin to go through the books and note everything down, then places 314 on the counter for the exchange.

*Somehow, Ygraine of the Ursus Clan hears there is a Ring of Might in the chests, so without a thought, she runs to the shop and buys the ring (valued at 8000).
