Buy item
it works like IRL too
Irl there are return policies
>accidentally buy two of an item when I only need one
>still get half price for it despite never using it
>kill the merchant
>no loot
>world is about to fucking end
>still jews you for items
do you know how many snotnosed, spikey haired, glowing sword wielding punks come through my fucking shop asking for free shit because "they're the chosen one" or "the hero of ages"?
either buy my fucking potions or piss off you little shits
>Buy item
>"That'll be 600 gil! Thank you~!"
>Sell back item
>"Here is 601 gil."
How do you deal with the knowledge you could have an arbitrarily large sum of money for the cost of an arbitrarily large sum of time?
>buy item for 10 g
>sell item for 12 g
>the places where you can buy the item and the nearest place where you can sell them are super far away
It takes everything out of me not to spend hours exploiting this
The time you're wasting being a fucking retard would have earned you 10 times more money by grinding mobs
>skyrim has this mechanic
fucking stop giving me ptsd user
>buy item for 100g in a town i have good reputation with so i get a discount
>travel down south
>southern town's trade routes are cut off by roaming orcs
>sell same item for 200g in southern town
>they offer you a quest to clear the surrounding area of the orc invaders
>decline
hehehe see you folks in a few days with some more premium wares!
all merchants have a chest hidden beneath the floor nearby containing all of their shop inventory
you can even get to some of these without console commands by going outside of bounds
Hello Potion seller. I'm going into battle and I want your strongest potions.
>buy item in town A
>make the long journey across the map, killing every mob I see, gaining more gold in the process
>sell item in town B
checkmate, fag
Ramus didn't. Biggest jew ever just gave you everything for free when the world was ending.
my potions are too strong for you traveller
Wasnt there a glitch in oblivion where you could sell something for morr than it cost to get rich?
only found 2 of them like whiterun and dawnstar
Oh I have a devilishly wicked idea. Put that in a game, but include a secret counter that goes up by one every time the player abuses this.
If it goes over a certain amount they get a bad ending for "wasting time on pointless things".
Holy fuck I haven't heard this meme in ages.
Fucking hilarious, just rewatched it and I'm dying hahaha
Reminds me of a classic /tg/ greentext.
Tadano is Unironically right
Prove me wrong
Most if not all places will just take it back free of charge as long as you have the receipt though
Every single merchant building has it, some are easier to access depending on exactly where it's placed. If you pick up a large plate and run against the wall with it you can clip out of pretty much any building in the game
i think that's what he's saying, comparing that irl policy with some video games policy of 'whoops you bought it and the only option is to resell it'. most games have you hold to buy or confirm before you exit the inventory screen though so maybe op should pay attention when theyre playing video games.
i havent played whatever this cat game in the pic is tho so who knows
why?
I agree with him anyway
>game
It's an anime
No shit it's lower price. It has your germs on it now.
If I had to make a guess, it's probably because one, it would be too easy to exploit (as if Elder Scrolls doesn't have tons of other exploits as it is,) and two, Bethesda is shit at coding and had to come up with an alternate inventory space, lest the merchants all end up vastly over encumbered and can't move from their spawn points.
thanks for the info ill use it next time i play skyrim
