You are a Trader in a RPG.What do you sell?

[superbatranger]

I might sell horse insurance. It is something everyone needs.

 

[keideki]

There is a game that lets you do this, its available on steam. Its called Recettear.

 

[Inconspicuous Trenchcoat]

Based on how I played Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale: I'd sell anything and everything I could acquire for cheap or free, and milk my customers for all they're worth. Of course, I played through the whole main game (that final deadline was tough to reach!) before looking up its hidden mechanics. Apparently, if you sell to everyone cheap, it'll build trust with the customer, so later on you can jack up the prices much higher. That tidbit would have been useful, hehe. Or maybe I'm remembering this mechanic wrong, don't quote me.

If I had to specialize... I'd sell signs that you could draw or right on then post somewhere (like MineCraft or Animal Crossing). They'd sell like hotcakes because people love to express themselves and stand out from the crowd. I'd also enjoy seeing my product all over the place, and it'd be interesting to see what others came up with. So, obviously I'd be a merchant in an MMORPG.

 

[Ken Sapp]

Healing items, potions, remedies and such

I would be the richest bastard in town.

 

[SodaDew]

In a old earth style RPG, very basic firearms and unique swords. Modern day-ish ones Everything...

 

[kypsilon]

I've got a nice little kiosk one room away from the final boss, selling the best weapons in the game, at 1000% prices.

This. And a three hour warranty in case you fail against the final boss and lose your saved data.

 

[Negatempest]

I sell sexual education and safe sex products for the "chosen" teens who are close to facing the boss. Just because they are young does not mean they have to be ignorant.

 

[AK47Marine]

Weapons and Mercs of course, ala Lord of War

just call me "Yuri"

 

[Eccentric Lich]

My shop chain would be the save points. Prices would rise and fall depending on the location.

It would be cheap to save in the middle of a town, but if you want to save before that boss fight you may need to sell some gear.

 

[Censorme]

Lamp-oil, rope, bombs.

YOU WANT IT?!?

 

[Lord RPGs]

I'm the guy at the start who'll sell you Short Swords, Daggers, Leather Armour, Cloth Clothes, and An Herb/s. Also a Wooden Stick for the mages, if I'm feeling really creative.

 

[sora91111]

weapons and armor with a self destruct switch.

 

[Spectrum_Prez]

"The means to reMAKE yourself." Duh.

No, but in all seriousness - probably indulgences.

 

[eastinfecter]

Damn ninja, in that case I think I'll be selling:

Crudely painted, not so funny, cardboard cutout folk art!

[F-I-D-O]

I sell directions for 5 units and 100 units
Normal directions are 5, correct directions are 100 units
I'll probably get back when my brain decides to turn back on.

 

[thenumberthirteen]

Weapons. They're always the ones that get the most money from Player Characters.
