I think we should have a market section where merchants or players can start their own thread. Each thread would be a market stall and the owner would state the items that they have in stock and their price. The buyer would roleplay all the business done. One good thing about this idea is that the two people will be able to haggle over the items.
I think that this idea could help our economy system immensely.
EDIT: Since some weapons can only be found in certain stations maybe we could have different market sections...... Polis Market... Prospect Mira.... Kitai-Gorod etc.

Seeing as our site is becoming more active and larger, I'd like to ask for the staffs permission to put this idea into action. Under the Ring Line roleplay section, I would create a thread titled "Market Thread - Prospekt Mira (or any other ring station). If this idea goes well then I hope you all will allow me to add more markets to areas like the VDNKh Commonwealth, Red Line, The Fourth Reich, Polis, etc. At other station's markets you will have the opportunity to purchase items that can only be found in certain areas. As the head of the thread, I hope I can be allowed to roleplay as the shop owner. This will be a stationary and minor character (no app needed) confined to his/her specific market thread. As you can see on my first post, the buyer and owner would roleplay all business done. This would include bartering and would make the market more realistic. However, I totally understand if Joe would prefer a member of staff take the role as shop owner. (though I do hope i get the task ) I am very active though and will make sure to respond to all who wish to purchase items. Alrighty then.... here is a basic format for how I planned the market starting post to look like... -Description of the station and area, introduce and describe the owner who stands near his wares- -a list of the available items, will be labeled like so...- (item) - (price) Makarov PM - 25 MGR (military grade ammo)/ bullets The list of items would continue. Also... there are two more points I should make. Shop owners may treat your character differently depending on who are or which station you are at (suggesting they ever find out your identity or profession). For example, if an obvious Fourth Reich member approaches a Red Line shop then the owner may choose to downrightly not sell to him at all or raise the price on the customer's preferred item. The buyer should also be aware of how much currency their character currently has. They can't buy provisions with imaginary money, they can always look at their character app and view how many bullets they have. I hope my beloved staff allows me to direct this productive idea into effect! I merely wish to help make this site more enjoyable and have much wider sections of possible roleplay. Thanks!
