[BG] - Trader Jane's Bargain Resales

Unread post by TraderJane »

Before you is a make-shift market stall, hosted by a lady in flowing green robes. She greets you and introduces herself, "Trader Jane, at your service. How can I help you today?"

Atop the stall hangs a board with the slogan:
Hidden: show
"You can't buy happiness, but you can buy the envy of others!"
A scroll posted at a signpost reads:
Hidden: show
Trader Jane is your friendly local resaler available for commission of goods and services.

Are you an epic hero too busy ever adventuring to bother with selling trinkets at the auction house? Well, fret not, for Trader Jane is here at your service! Better deals than Mudd's, with a lower commission charged only upon sale!

Are you a lowly adventurer, the meek of the world, you who are not among the elite One Percent (OP) of The Sword Coast? I am here to serve you, too! Seek my service, take me to the seller, and I can arrange to haggle for better prices! Or just leave a note what item or magical property you seek, and I will look around to try to procure it at a price that is right for you!
A small box with a slit opening is on the stall, beside a stack of blank parchments. (OOC: Please PM for clients, inquiries, private offers etc.)

Trader Jane points your attention to a book listing her wares, explaining, "Thanks to my new clients and investors, the list is growing! Check us time and again for updates in inventory."


Trader Jane's Book of Wares reads:

Note: Minimum bids based on either original owner's request or discounted store costs! Negotiable.

- She does not necessarily carry all the goods on her person, so please expect an RL day or so delay before goods are available for transactions.
- Your time is valuable! Jane prefers to pre-arrange meet-ups and exchanges. Please be courteous and prompt.
- Currently only conducting trade around the BG Caravan Stop.

Jane pauses a moment to consider the offer, then turns to Maquin and smiles broadly, "I accept your offer.

I'm going to hang around the BG Caravan Stop in the next half hour or so, or we can setup a time to meet?" (OOC: PMed)

Thank you!

A while goes by, Freya would go to Jane's trading place. She would look around if the new merchant is still around.

Jane rises up from behind one of the stalls, clearly groggy from just waking up, and notices the customer --
"Oh, pardon me miss Freya. I'm still here! Just been busy with paper work and ledgers, is all."
She manages a smile behind a tired face.

"How are you doing? Is there something in particular I can help you with?"

"As you know, I trade more than what I advertise here, so please do let me know if there is anything you need that is not openly listed." She nods and smiles.

Freya would smile​: "No hurry, Jane. Just small things at the moment. I left something to sell to you. Did it already find a new owner?"

A sun elf approaches the stall with curiosity. After a quick glance on the wares he slowly take off his pointy hat and smile at the trader.

' Greetings mademoiselle Jane, I am Kaljefa, a wizard wandering the Coast for a while now. I must say I never expect much when looking at a new stall but this might be what I've been looking for ...'

/// The wizard point the headband of intellect + 4 .

' I am willing to offer the 400 bags you are asking for it. What do you say?'

Jane smacks her forehead, "Oh, that's right! It was the shield wasn't it? Let's arrange a meeting before my caravan goes on a long trading expedition away next week!"
