Selling Items

Hi

Sorry if this is a daft question but I'm new to Geneforge!

How do I sell items? When I meet some1 to trade with I can buy from them, but can't find an option to sell my items...have loads of pointless gems that would love to make some cash from!

Please help!

Thanks

If you are using an older Geneforge (1&2, I think), there should be a button on the item icon which looks like three coins. Clicking on this will allow you to sell. If the icon is representing more than one item, there will be a prompt asking how many you want to sell.

To sell an item, just click on the coin buttons that appears on the items in your inventory.

 

In GF1, you can sell your stuff to pretty much anyone who will buy, BUT they only have a certain amount of money that they can buy your stuff with. In GF2, I think this limit is gone. In GF3, there's usually a separate option for selling your stuff.

 

Also, shops won't buy certain junk items, like trash and other such low-value items.

Is that all? Sheesh.

Normally, by the end of a GF game (especially G1), I've sold so much stuff that I'm the only one with money. Maybe Jeff should've included an ending where you bribe your way into the good graces of the Shaper council, provided you have enough gold, of course; I'd probably get it every time.

Good point. Though with a slight correction: You're definitely the only one with stuff!

 

Then again, you're also the only one who can actually pick up stuff, as well as move from one location to another to buy & sell things. Therefore, pack rats like me can amass a huge amount of money over the course of the game (easily well over 20,000 cash), which is why I'd still like to see an attempt at bribing the Shaper council as a possible ending.
