Boxes of corn. I will pay you 650 trues.

I need the following also, Garlic, Grave Dirt, Skullcap, Witch Hazel, Aloe, Silk and Spotted Mushrooms. Mushrooms stricktly ordered in advance, I will let you know when I need then, if it's within your skills, as with the rest. Take this as a general statement, below follows my order for the moment.

Because you are new, I will give you general instructions as to where to find all of the items I require, my Raven will deliver these instructions to you personally.

Therefore, I  order:
I will pay 500 true for a mixed box of Garlic, Graveyard Dirt, Skullcap, Witch Hazel, Aloe and Silk in equal proportians. In addition I am seeking one box of  a graveyard dirt/spotted mushroom split (850 True), along with 16 boxes of corn.

I will also buy honey from you, in units of 35, for a further 600 gold, I currently require 1 such measurement therof.

In addition, if you deliver all items to me, as one complete shipment, I will award you an additional 750 True honour fee.

This brings the total to 12350 True for all of the above 13100 if brought all at once.

Unsigned.

as i understand - a bird ( a hawk) responds to my post in the tavern.

(i should have written: slip puts up a post in the tavern. also, slip persuades the town criers to advertize for her)

the bird - responds to my advert.

i take this info and run with it!

If you need help please feel free to contact me and I would be more then willing to show you what I can.  Also, I would suggest talking to others about pricing or myself.

I don't know about the others and pricing, but I seriously doubt many would even buy them, and I've seen most sitting idly on the noticeboards, feel free to push the price up beyond what any are willing to pay, but I will also feel free to not purchase. Majority of the box componants are incredibly easy to aquire and as such the price in the market is too high, not only that, but most of the componants are a mixture, far easier to acquire, I think the current egg situation has prooven that some prices were highly out of line.

Musrooms were optional as they're quite hard to get. But if you look in the guilds, what I'm offering is above the current rate for boxes of corn. I'm asking for raw corn, not corn meal.

Sir, you are greatly mistaken as boxes of corn are easily sold at 1000 true or more.  I have yet to sell one for less then 1500 and easily get rid of mine.  Please stop taking advantage of those who do not know such.

You're wrong, 2000 true for a box of corn is drastically wrong. A box of oil is 3000, a box of eggs is 3000, realistically 5000. I don't know where you do your calculations but they're fail.

*Khuren watches from the window sill above as the notes change again and hops down*

silly man, just because a guild pays a certain amount , thats cause they are making profit off finished product and usually pay less then normal or try to
 
and though you have your opinion, when i gather corn i get 2000 coin a box

How much for a box of eggs than, considering you need four boxes of corn for one box of eggs....

Dear unenlightened anonymous corn buyer,
You make the fatal and ignorant mistake of assuming that the market makes sense. Stop trying to convince sellers that they should conform to your personal petty attempt at price-fixing. It's amusing, I admit I get a laugh out of it, but seriously, grow up or something.

Dear, I assume, assume named "slips away"
Perhaps you need some lessons in the art of sales. Contact me if this anonymous person tries to bilk you you out of anything else.

In keeping with the spirit of this advertisement, I'll be anonymous as well today.

As I have said before, see me and I will help you get set up in gathering to the best of my ability.  For this there will be no charge, no added fees and nothing asked for.  I can normally be reached in or about Hempshire or Fort Llast or just ask anyone if they know of me, I am easy to get in contact with.

Excuse me!! A box of corn is worth only about 500 gold. Due to it being easy to get. I think you should stop taking advantage of the guy offering more gold than it is worth.
