Society Shop
« on: May 19, 2006, 03:14:46 AM »
Howdy Advantage,

I am just wondering if anyone in the society has a store, or if anyone has an interest in a Society store to sell surplus loots.
Is there anyway to generate any society funds with one? and each player get at least tt value for their items?

Anyway just thought I would test the waters with the question.

I moved this topic to here as it's a private room.

It can be a good idea, but even if buying a shop might look nice, you/we need to think it thru.
You need to have ALOT of things to sell in it, and i'm not speaking about some monsters loots now and then... I mean regular sippement of the same kind at the same prices so people get used to come and buy at your/our place.

Second you need to update it every day to follow market prices or you will either loose money by selling too low, or loose money by not selling.

A shop has only one owner ... so we have to entrust one single people to manage it ...

It would have to be a consignment shop, and probably require a person who is really really interested in the book keeping and logistics of getting goods, and chasing after people to give them payments.

Well, what I understand to this point then:

1. Someone buys a shop.
2. Shop owner buys items at [u:3a6e62lp]TT value from Advantage members.
3. Shop owner sells items in shop at current market prices, daily/weekly current.
4. Shop owner gives JJ 5% of (a) sale price, (b) profit, for society funds to purchase Society LAND[/u:3a6e62lp]

shop owner must recoup cost of shop, decay? of shop etc and make a bit for the time to run it all.
Advantage members must support the idea with decent items for sale to build client list for shop.

Maybe somewhere in the far distant future this could lead to a society land plot :)
