The Buying Game by Ababael Timsar-Dadisun treats bargaining as a sport to be played seriously and politely. It explains the Elsweyr custom of sharing tea before business, warns against offers so low they insult the shopkeeper, and ends with the author’s own regret over an item he waited too long to buy.
Skill book
The Buying Game is a Speech skill book. The first time you read a copy, your Speech skill goes up by one point – later copies of the same title don’t give anything extra, so there is no need to carry them around.
Notes
The advice fits the game quite well – Speech is the skill that lowers buying prices and raises selling prices.
