Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

A dark robed man enters the Farmlands, moving over to the southern trade bazaar. He sets up a stall and tacks up a sign, declaring that he is selling wares. He has two options on each piece of equipment. A minimum bid sign, which indicates bidding should start at the appropriate amount and a buyout sign, which indicates that someone will be able to bypass the bidding process completely with the indicated price.

Bidding is indicated to go on for three days (from the start of the first bid) on each item or until the bidding meets the buyout price. If the latter occurs, the first person who met the buyout price will be awarded the item.

There is also several sheets of paper, cut into multiple tickets available on a spot at the stall. In addition, there are several quills and inkwells. Above this, there is a sign that says "For placing bids. State your name, your place of contact, the item you wish to bid on, and your bid. After doing so, give your ticket to the attending merchant."

A slim man dressed in designer linens saunters through the market. He pauses at the new stall for a time, carefully looking over the list. Taking up quill and ticket, he fills out the required information and hands it to the attendant.

The note would read:

Furio Romero

A giant northerner looks at the wares "i will open the bidding on that greatsword, 5 bags"
My Name is Vissiago

"That's a damm fine helmet yeh got dere, how 'bout 200 bags for it?"

A small stout dwarf with an icegrey beard says and points at the other 'Helmet of Defensive Agility'.

Tad would offer 250 bags for one of these Epic Helmet of Defensive Agility.

The bids so far:

Two hundred and fifty thousand on Helmet of Defensive Agility! [Shad]
Two hundred thousand on Helmet of Defensive Agility II! [Theodore01]
Five thousand on Sword of Radiant Light! [Gwiston]

The well-dressed gentleman sighs as the other customers ignore the merchant's directions. "Damnable savages.."
He combs his hair to a mirror sheen as they shout out their bids.
Taking another ticket, he ups his original bid.

The man glances to the elf, and smiles back softly. "If you intend to take the buyout price, then, I can happily deliver sir. It is yours, for the buyout. Please indicate which of the two helmets you wish to purchase, and I will close the bid on the one you will buyout."

"Well, I think that one would obstruct my vision less." Points to the one with the higher bid.

He gives a little nod, that warm smile still on his face.

"Very well. Then, it is done sir. Thank you for your purchase. You can collect your item now, if you like."

Finely groomed eyebrows furrow in slight frustration as he is outbid once more.
The fancy man pauses a moment, with one hand on his hip, to consider the other customers, before filling out another ticket.

He offers an equally warm smile and a suggestive wink to the merchant as he hands him the ticket.
