    Announcing my new Inscription vendor at the South end of Yew bank in Apoc's small tower.

    Consumers will love my vendor. Other vendor owners will hate it!

    Fair, Honest Prices:

    Recall scrolls @ 280 GP per 10
    Mark scrolls @ 350 GP per 10
    Blade Spirit scrolls @ 350 GP per 10
    "Newbie" spellbooks circles 1-6 @ 1200 GP

    More to come as my scribe develops.

    Eg. Empty runebooks will be sold at 250 GP. As a newbie to this shard, finding it very hard to get going, I am saddened by the rip-off prices that other vendors are charging for these simple items.

    Change is coming!

    Welcome to the neighborhood. You can make a name for yourself by building up, or tearing down. Guess which works best in the long run.

    I have found that what works best for me is to keep my customers happy by selling at a price they can afford, which also still gives me a very healthy profit. This worked well for me over the last 15 months on another well-known free shard, and for many years from 1997 on OSI's Atlantic and Siege Perilous shards.

    I plan to use the same philosophy here at Renaissance.

    But honestly... Why does a runebook, which costs about 80 gold to make (failures factored in), "have" to be sold here for 425 gold? Or a recall scroll, which costs 15 gold to make (cannot fail) which is advertised here for at least 37.5 gold with some shopping around?

    I better not tell you that I sell resurrection scrolls at cost on that other shard! :)

    I don't know yet if I will be making this shard my new home, but time will tell. While I am here, however, I will try to make a difference.
