@idea from Rob
The stuff for sale in markets should be at more of a discount than it is. I see a lot of stuff that is hardly less than cost, and some that even isn't. Also, i'd like to toss the idea back up there for a 'search' feature for the markets. Could be cool.

Agreed!
They charge too much and pay to little.
Assuming the ambient population uses the markets, that smiling lady and her cronies should be about the richest people around!

You misunderstand the purpose of the market.
Its to give you guys a place to get rid of stuff. There aren't supposed to be any bargains at the market. If that was the case, you'd have zero incentive to buy it off someone else.

Heh, but then why does it cost even more to buy it off of other people? I've had people charge me near full or full price for stuff as simple as a SpyderCo or Butterfly knife…it's just too expensive. You may as well go to the stores. And if no one at markets buys anything off you, how is it for us to get rid of stuff? I find that markets are useless - for my current character especially.

I think that the markets should have more items you can only find on them… like a buntch of useless stuff for posing use only...

Hmmm…. makeup kits, alarm clocks, bechs, shelves... anything for a room decoration... bags of candy, lollypops... lipstick...
That kind of useless stuff with just a description on it so you can only see, hold, drop and hand it to someone... The only real use would be to pose with it.

More useless shit to bloat the database … check.
I want players to own LESS objects, not more thank you. If an object doesn't have a some code or purpose, odds are, it won't be in game.

But don't worry, you can PRETEND you find a used condom.
It's going to be ok, I promise. :)

Actually Johnny, you want players to own FEWER objects, not less.

Am I the only one who uses the 'haggle' command at the market?
Christ, I get wicked deals all the time. Once got a Shinohara SIC amplifier for under 50k. (They cost like…90k or something.)
Don't know what you all are doin wrong.

They're all being combat monsters and boosting agility and pistol.

You have spiffy nifty high charisma too, Nic.
Hey Lujan…I don't think you should poke fun at others for bumping up combat stats and ignoring charisma. How many times did Tash hurl after smelling Gerik?

Actually, I have boosted charisma a little bit, only his usually comes in the form of a gun, and charisma means nothing if you've been crawling through sewers as far as I know, if you smell like regurgitated faeces, you're going to smell like it regardless.

Hey mano, killing people hurts charisma along with other things. If you shower you don't smell no more ;)

Killing people -shouldn't- affect charisma, that's almost as stupid as luck affecting how much armor protects you.

as far as I know killing people doesn't. It's gouging thier eyes out afterwards that does.
I should know!
