Message: <blockquote data-quote="Quasqueton" data-source="post: 3605995" data-attributes="member: 3854">Buying and selling magic items does not imply a Magic-Walmart. Can the PCs buy full plate armor? How about 3 suits for their henchmen? Does this mean full plate armor hangs on racks in an Armor-Walmart?Can the PCs buy a sailing ship? Can they sell a sailing ship they captured? Does this mean there are new and used ship lots?Can the PCs buy a spyglass? A waterclock? Thunderstones? Alchemist fire? Holy water? Are there Mundane-Walmarts?Just because a DM allows PCs to purchase expensive items (magical or mundane) does not mean there are anything like a Walmart. It usually just means that the DM (and the Players) don't want to role play out the shopping expedition -- skip the boring stuff to get back to the adventure.Say the PCs come back from the dungeon with some loot to spend. One PC wants to buy a suit of full plate armor (1,500gp), one wants to buy a spyglass (1,000gp), one wants to buy four tanglefoot bags (200gp), one wants to buy a heavy warhorse (400gp), one wants to buy a potion of cure light wounds and a potion of invisibility (50gp and 300gp), and one wants to buy a +1 chain shirt (1,250gp). Are any of these purchases made at any kind of Walmart store? Are the magic item purchases more game breaking than the mundane item purchases?Quasqueton</blockquote>
