A way to make it so our SDB's will only sell one item to each person per day.

So that I can put an item on intensely good sale, but only allow you to get one per day. Another thing I thought would be cool would be to be able to sell things only in certain amounts, so that I could have one box for singles, and another box on a bulk discount. I think things like this would help separate the experience of buying things in towers from the experience of buying things in auction.

  • Yes! Plus, I would like to set how many I want to sell. "Sell all but [1]", for easier restocking.

  • Yes that would be awesome. I'd like to sell milk at 1c a piece but I only want a person to be able to buy so much per day so that others may have a chance to buy some at that price.

  • Yeah, exactly what eye wonder is saying is a large part of why I want this. I want to sell EHSP and tinctures at a ridiculously low price but only in small amounts, i figure it'll draw alot of people to my home street, and if there are other things to do there they might do those as well. It'll also get people to look at my other stock, and then maybe get more sales. It would allow us to use alot of more complex marketing strategies and such, which I don't think alot of games do. I haven't played one that does atleast.

  • Another voice for allowing low price sellers to limit quantities.

  • I support this on the grounds that it would make the game way more interesting for buyers alone!

  • (Previously suggested and discussed here: www.glitch.com/forum/ideas/... )

    It is a good idea and will probably happen (it is not so simple though, because SDBs do not currently remember every buyer they interact with). Having the ability to place "loss leaders" will be really handy.

    Separately, if the intention is just to be able to give stuff away on a one-visitor-per-one-game-day basis, the butler will be able to do this soon.

  • :D Yay! I'm not in any rush, I figure the more glitch keeps changing, the longer it'll be fun for me, so just knowing it's probably coming in the future is cool to know! That's cool about the butler too!
