Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale / Re: Inflation & deflation: does it stack?

Not true. They'll still buy depreciated/price dropped items at 100% base price because they simply don't know any better.

Huh, I didn't know that.

Griff just asked something along the lines of: "Shall you buys this from me?"
Or something like that, the key being "buys".

I'm on my 2nd New Game+, Caillou joined me in day 4. 
I love his reaction when we already have his order on-hand.

We hear Recette call Tear's name a number of times, so it's very much the crying tear, not the ripping one.

Euria does have some exclusive items, it's interesting getting the Sea Floor(?) set of decorations from her, makes it look like you're in the ocean! Rather neat, but the Floor+Walls punts me firmly in Gaudy.

Vending machines charge base price.
This means if something has depreciated, nobody will buy it because it looks like 200% to them.
If something has appreciated, everybody will buy it because it looks like 50% to them.

I know of at least two specific cases:
Slimes and Knights had problems with the decimals, so Slimes now do 1/10th and Knights do x10 times the damage they did pre-patch.

Seriously, Prime just lies. I give her 110%, and when she says 'no' I increase the price. Inevitably, she accepts almost 120%.

My best experience was f-king with the damn lying fairy.
I give her 110%, she rejects it, and since I hate her I bump it up. She of course, rejects it, so I make it even MORE expensive, and she buys it.

Hate her.

Ah, didn't see this thread. I've removed mine and the post was as follows:

I've wondered why the Ruins Floor looked like bricks, while the "Brick Floor" is made of some weird green tiles...

This site offers an explanation: http://blackguard.darkstargamers.com/Recettear_%281.1x%29/Items/Other/Flooring

"It seems Carpe Fulgur got the translation of "renga no yuka" and "iseki no yuka" mixed up somehow. As a result, what should be called "Ruins Floor" is now "Brick Floor" and vice versa.
People who have played Chantelise and/or Tokkyu Tenshi will know that the diamond-patterned floor is supposed to represent the ancient ruins, not the bricks."

The site also prefers "Platinum Card" to "True Card', but that's neither here nor there...

Starting a New Game+ will increase your Loop by 1. The counter is kept for as long as that data is used.

Losing is worth seeing at least once, if only for the very scene.
