Market Stalls debuted at Ebon Gate 2023 and are sold at Market Makers. They were designed by GM Ethereal. Market Stalls can be set up in most rooms for a temporary period of time to sell items placed on them. Unlocks expand the amount of time they can be set up and also reduce the percentage cut that the ghostly shopkeeper tending the stall takes from all sales. Unlocks also expand how many items can be placed for sale and the total amount of silvers that can be stored in a stall from sales.

UncutGem.pngThis article is a Stub. You can help GSWiki by expanding it.


Tier 1

The stall can stand for 1 hour, hold 5 items and 100k silvers, and the shopkeeper takes a 20% cut.

Analyze

You analyze the stained glass tray and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

OVERVIEW

Hello there, intrepid adventurer!  This stained glass tray is a Market Stall item.  These items allow you to set up temporary stalls to display and sell items in rooms that are in towns but not noded.  While out, you may set up items for sale that other players may purchase.  Proceeds from the sales subject to a 20% tax and are stored in the stall until you retrieve them.

USE

This item may be PLACE'd to set up a temporary market stall or to collapse one back down into something a bit more portable.  Stalls will remain standing for up to 4 hours before collapsing and being sent to the Adventurer's Guild Recovery system.  To interact with the stall, simply ASK STALL FOR HELP to get a listing of commands.  Some commands are restricted to the owner.

Tier 1-4 Stalls may be PLACE'd 1x per day while Tier 5 stalls may be PLACE'd or REFRESH'd 2x per day.  A player may only have one stall per room and private properties are restricted to one owner placed (indefinitely lasting) stall per property.

ALTERING

This item may be freely altered with both longs and shows.  The only restriction is on the nouns when deployed and collapsed.  Approved nouns are:

Deployed Nouns: stand, table, counter, booth, kiosk, stall, crate
Collapsed Nouns: case, tray, chest, box, container

Note: Only one noun may be in use in any given room.

The item's sign may also be altered by any willing merchant but altering the shopkeeper is a rare service that is restricted to Naidem merchants only.

SETTINGS

Collapsed Base Description: a frosted stained glass tray
Collapsed Long Description: 
Collapsed Show Description: 

Stall Base Description: an awning-topped display counter
Stall Long Description: a blue awning-topped display counter fashioned of stained glass
Stall Show Description: 

Shopkeeper: elderly burghal gnome salesmen.  It has a kind personality.
Display sign: a small wooden stand

This stained glass tray will stay put for 1 hours and may be PLACE'd or REFRESH'd 1 time per day.

STAY PUT

This item has Stay-Put qualities.  If you PLACE it, it will be moved to the ground in your current room and stay there, unable to be picked up by others or taken by the janitor, for 1 hour.  After that, the item is fair game for others and for the janitor.  Alternately, the item may be PLACEd by the owner of a private property within the grounds of the property and will stay there until PLACEd again.

You get no sense of whether or not the tray may be further lightened.

Additional Information

Help Menu

ASK [STALL] FOR HELP displays the help menu for the stall, which also has a full list of commands available. The following is for a fully unlocked stall.

You can ask the counter about eight things: SELL, RETURN, BALANCE, WITHDRAW, INVENTORY, BUY, INSPECT, and HELP.

    SELL {PRICE} - sets an item up for sale, prioritizing your right hand, then left hand.  Requires confirmation.
    INVENTORY - lists the items available for sale at this counter.
    RETURN {#} - returns an item from the counter's inventory.
    INSPECT {#} - gives you information about an item in the counter's inventory.
    BUY {#} - purchases an item from the counter's inventory.  Requires confirmation.
    BALANCE - tells you how many silvers are contained within your counter.
    WITHDRAW - withdraws all silvers from the counter, splitting some of the proceeds with your shopkeep.
    TIME - indicates how much time is left before the timer expires.
    REFRESH - renews the 4 hour timer when the item is deployed. (Tier 5 stalls only).
    ANNOUNCE - toggles whether or not the stall announces its presence to other rooms.
    HELP - gives you help with the counter

Setting Up

The stall can be set up in most rooms. There is a limit on how many stalls can be set up in a given room, based on the available nouns, which is currently seven. It is impossible to set up stalls with the same noun in the same room, so a single room cannot have two stalls with the noun of "kiosk". The allowed nouns are stand, table, counter, booth, kiosk, stall, and crate.

Stalls can only be set up for a specific amount of time based on their tier of unlock. Once that time has expired, the stall will collapse onto the ground and be subject to the janitor or other players picking it up.

The only exception to a stall collapsing is for private property owners. Private property owners can set up a single stall on any room of their property indefinitely. Only property owners may place a stall on their property.

Shopkeeper

The shopkeeper's personality can be changed via certificate between kind, sleazy, and snooty.

Mascot

An update to the stall added a mascot that is visible at the end of the stall's LOOK description (if it has one) in the format of:

A small wooden GM Tamuz figurine set on the stall's surface holds up a sign that reads, "ASK about our wares!"

The mascot can be customized.

Sale Item Restrictions

Not all items can be sold via a stall, typically due to some complexity in their script.
