[QUOTE="cthulhu42, post: 7283868, member: 6792361"] Loose underworld types. Maybe not criminal, but mysterious at least. That's entirely up to the PC's. As DM I don't, and shouldn't, have any say in what they do with their gold and items between themselves. The rarity of the vendors most certainly does matter. As it stands, there's no guarantee that said shady character will be there next time you come through the city. And even if he is, there's no guarantee his inventory will be the same. This lends a sense of drama and urgency to the whole process. If they want to play Merchants & Moneybags, they'll have to find another DM. If they don't mind handing their characters over to me to become magic item vendor NPC's, that's cool, but I don't see it happening. I keep them pretty busy, what with saving the world and stuff. Again, we're all there to play D&D. Monopoly is for other nights. They don't really have "surplus" items. I've been fairly stingy with magic items up to this point. They certainly all have one or two good ones, but not many that they'd want to get rid of. I think they sold off a drift globe and a +1 sword to the shady character, and only got about 1050gp for them. [/QUOTE]
