Adv Mart has different prices when you sell items.

In the Adv Mart you can sell items at a higher price if you are seeing the "special merchandise" gear.

 

I guess it kinda makes no sense that the same person is willing to buy the same items at different prices depending on the situation?

 

Thx!

Perhaps paying the fee to see the special stock makes you a "valuable customer"?

 

Makes sense to me, you have to pay for access to the store and it's in Chapter 6. Since there was no way to update the original store.

 

Personally, I vote leave it. Obviously, if any action is taken, RIBALD3's buying markup should be dropped to 30% to match RIBALD. Otherwise, game balance comes into question.

 

For reference, on my install (BG2Fixpack only):

 

RIBALD (Regular):

Buying Markup 30%

Selling Markup 165%

Identify 100%

Difficulty 20%

Depreciation 5

Capacity 0

ID Price 100

 

RIBALD3 (Special Store):

Buying Markup 55%

Selling Markup 165%

I'm inclined to no change here. Anyone else?

[devSin]

I don't see overwhelming justification for it, so yeah, no change.

Well I thought it was an exploit as well. I try to sell at a normal price, and not pay the fee so that I can get more money for my items. That wouldn't be very intelligent on the part of Ribald to allow that.
