What is your suggestion?:      stop the karamja shop from gaining stock when items are sold

Is this in OSRS?:      no (because osrs has its own way to counteract this that alora does not and cannot have)

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:      no

How would this benefit Alora?:         the karamja shop currently buys items at high alch value and will decrease as items stock up, this is working as intended. THE PROBLEM is that while on osrs this is because you may utilize the world hop function and each world has its own stock, alora does not. this is one of those times where people need to use their common sence and customise a small piece of content to better fit alora and the differences we have as a server to that of osrs and remove the shop being able to have stock in it. this benefits basically every single person in the entire game, ironmen are not the only people who source alot of their gp from alch value.

I support this! Would be good to add!

[Dead NL]

Support. not sure why its taken what 3 years?

[Variant]

support for such a great idea that can introduce more passive money makers for our newer players, while not greatly impacting the OG's since the amount of gp will be so small in comparison to end game gear price tags

It used to be like that when the shop was first introduced, I don't know when and why it was changed. It's literally useless right now, might as well alch the items yourself lol.

Support.

I heard this was changed before because some items buy prices were less than their high alch prices meaning you could buy back the items and then sell them for a profit.

 

It would be too much work to change the buy price of every item.

 

An easier solution would just be to make it so that you can't buy items from the shop.

 

HUGE SUPPORT for this to be reintroduced.

This is one of the things people ask about the most tbh. Would be a nice qol update for everyone, especially irons.

 

Big Support. 

[Radagon]

Support from me

[UpChurch]

support. we cant world hop to utilize shops and this will be nice QOL/benefit especially for ironmen. 

[Orikalka]

Fully support, another way to make a little bit of cash.

IF this is implemented, you should keep a quantity log of every item sold there and monitor it. Eventually someone (like myself) might find some item available at a shop to buy and sell it to the store in mass quantities for a generous profit to generate infinite GP.  IF the number 1, 2 and 3 items sold there are suspicious, such as bug abuse like behavior, the sale price of those items should be reduced.

I will say though that the current karamja shop is pretty much useless in it's current state, even with Karamja gloves. There's seemingly no documentation either which karamja shop this exists with or whether the bandits wildy general store has better sale prices too.
