Player Shops

I was going to wait awhile before posting this (like so many players have), but since it kinda came up in the private houses thread I thought I'd just get it up here.
I'm thinking it should be 2 million gold to start a shop. These will be in markets in each town (newly created) similar to how Nightmist's current one. For a spot on main roads (out of the district) the price would be 3 million.
There will be a tax price which I am unsure of at this moment.
The stores will act as current shops and vaults. 100 items max no matter what kind. There will be buttons to set this all up viewable only to the storeowner. (and there will only be one to prevent theft issues)
So basically I can look through player's shops in a more realistic environment then the website. Adds a new way to profit and a new role-playing aspect.

This could blend nicely with trade skills if a system is ever divised....

This will prolly cost more then it gets you, so imma stick to the website.
Edit: Maybe if you can put crits in your shop, with a lookover it will show all (stats, xp, hp/mp etc.) and you can instant sell it like you can sell items on the forum. Just have to have the money on you and put down your account name. To avoid problems they all come naked and items can be bought in the same shop (if you put it there that is)

Or with shops being implemented trade skills could run hand in hand.
For example, you mine precious ores/minerals/metals/gems. and either smith them yourself or put them on sale in your shop for a smith to buy, the smith then smiths the items into armor, or weapons or such, and sells them at his shop.
This could essentially open the door to nightmist trade skills.

I also like the idea and I also agree w/the statement that it is a bit expensive. Perhaps you could make it a lower price to get a smaller shop say... 350k to get 10 spaces... and then you could purchase upgrades for your shop allowing you more spaces.

Maybe the "out in the middle of nowhere shops" should cost a lot less... But the shops in good locations that people pass everyday Should cost a lot to keep it from becoming overpopulated. Maybe shops could have multiple rooms, like a clan house, that could show weapons/armor/crits all seperate rooms. Maybe even a room for training set up... like "your cleric lvl 1-20 for 50k" just a thought. Each room would have its own price of course. Also, some of the shop like features we have for clan houses could be options... Sex Change Shop, Gaming Room, maybe a Name Change Shop (that would be cool)
Just some thought to help out an idea I really like.

The best shop would still be the one on the website, seeing as it only costs 100g an item. And everyone sees it, and you would only pay 2 mill if you can get it back with selling stuff, which would take like forever. So the only ppl shops would be for are role-players, and they ussually arent that rich.

Good idea. I think the shops that are on the outskirts of the city should cost a lot less since it would be in a pk zone. And the shops in town should be a lot. It would put the characters on a quest if you build a shop in the large forest or the orc caves and you are selling Rose Blade, or other expensive armor....

Once again outsider, you shoot down an idea without even giving it a chance...
Your not even thinking of further possibilities opened by this idea...
Trade skills, and shops are only for roleplayers? You've been playing hack and slash games far too often my friend... the game shouldnt be all about killing.
This could, AS I SAID, open the door for trade skills, which could then also open doors for alternate methods of gaining exp besides click monster picturex5 wait, and repeat said process.
IT adds depth, which this game is rather devoid of right now sorry to say.

See, you proved my point right there...
Your only thoughts are on profit, if you cant make a profit for it, then why should it exist...
If you could maybe get past that line of thinking you would see the depth that could be added with this idea alone, ONCE AGAIN moving along the trade skills idea line...
This idea may not be AS benifitial to the game as some want it to be, but the avenues of developement it opens DOES benifit the game... go figure....
