He picks up the following:- Pack of 5 Rations $10 1 lb ea. - vapor canteen $450- winter clothing (Vargr) $200- Personal Basics (TL0). (Min gear for camping: -2 to any Survivalroll without it. Includes utensils, tinderbox or flint and steel, towel, etc., asTL permits. $5; 1 (B/288)) $5- water purification tablets (bottle of 50) $5- 1 gallon of water $2Gruffle says to the Merchant, "Hello Shopkeeper. I just need tobuy a few things for a small hunting trip on your frosty planet.I don't see any price tag on your wares, but I was hoping youhad some discounts on any of these goods."  Gruffle puts themup on the counter top for the Merchant to inspect.  Gruffle thensays, "Some of this stuff looks a bit old & klunky.  Do you thinkI should buy it or take my business elsewhere?"  Though Gruffleis trying his best to haggle, he's a bit in a hurry, first tapping onthe counter-top, shifting from his left foot to his right, thenfolding his arms, & sighing.[OOC] OOC: He's easy to read & has truthfulness as a disadvantage,so you may want to attribute penalties to the Merchant roll as well as any reaction rolls for reputation to the shop keeper,etc. I figure haggling in the Traveller universe is a fairly common practice being on a mining world, etc.  Correct asyou see fit, GM. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> [/OOC]</blockquote>
