The items listed were taken from the 1st ed. Players Handbook, 2nd ed. PH, Aurora's Whole Realms Catalogue, Al-Qadim (by TSR). Some items were left out such as greek fire oil, others were added by me. These items are a general list of things you can buy in a city. Prices and items may vary as to availablity and workmanship. These are mundane items, not magical. For magical items you must find a specialty shop or have them made by a mage, alchemist or priest or be found as treasure. Of course if you have an excess of an item and want to sell it, they may be sold or bartered. Some items may be negotiated for to lower price. Coins: 10 cp = 1 sp 10 sp = 1 gp 10 gp = 1 pp 100 pp = 1 mithril (starstone - meteor) per oz. [RARE!] *note: Those coins found by adventurers in wandering in the wilds are probably ancient and will be tested and-or scorned. May draw attention of authorities and or thieves guild.
