[edit] Shop page needs change
This page does have mistakes. If you find a price mistake please correct it. The table code is confusing so if you do not feel like finding the correct way just note the problem here and it can be changed. If anyone has any ideas to improve the appearance of this page, go ahead and propose an idea. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 18:35, 18 February 2007 (PST)
/Cuervo Flechaor say: in fibula you can sell the bows crossbows and hatchet ^^
A good way to make the page a little easier to read would be to highlight the best prices for the items so that people can quickly see.

[edit] Page Improvements
This is going to be a large page no matter what, but how can it be improved? The point of this article is to give a large view of the different prices that all of a city's NPCs will buy or sell. If no NPC buys or sells an item it does not need to be on this list at all. Eventually items besides armor and weapons, like amulets and rings, should be added to Shops or an new page. The Traders article contains individual NPCs who buy/sell: Nah'Bob, Alesar, Hardek, Rashid, and H.L. just to split the list. The djinns and Rashid only buy expensive/rare items to maintain the items minimum value and are fine on another article. But Hardek and H.L. buy some common items, so it could be useful to keep them on Shops.
Another thing to be implemented, once Shops is fully and accurately updated, is to highlight or bold the best prices. For example:
| Sabre | 35 / 12 | 25 / 5 | 35 / 12 | 35 / 12 | 35 / 5 | 35 / 12 | 25 / 5 | 35 / 12 | - / - | - / - | - / - | 35 / 12 | 35 / 12 | 35 / 12 | - / - | 35 / 12 | 35 / 12 |

If people can go through a town and check every shopkeeper NPC to make sure our prices match those in game. Correct the NPC or item to make sure. After this is all certain then Shops can be properly updated. This sounds like a big project, but many pages are already accurate, so there will not be much effort, as well the more who help the quicker it goes. Here is a simple list of towns and NPCs. Cross out each name with strike through <s>NPC</s> when completed:
There are most likely some npcs missing off here that need checking, if anyone is interesting in helping out with this project you might want to click on edit then copy and paste this table into notepad as it could make it a little easier to see which npcs where need crossing off or you could just leave a message on here saying which npcs you have checked. Crossed out ones have been checked/updated. beejay 15:38, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Question
Should all the items in the table be in alphabetical order? I see that in one place they already are, and in other places they are arranged by their armor/weapon value. I feel as though Hardek should stay in this table or be merged with thais, as I see that the npc buys items such as firesword and spikesword which other npcs in free account areas also buy. I would say that HL should stay with traders because as with the other npcs in traders (excluding hardek) you need to be "special" to buy/sell with them. beejay 13:07, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
Armor/weapon value is not relevant to how much an item costs for most people and alphabetical lists are easier to search. That is a good argument for Hardek, so is merging better or not since he is listed with Thais NPCs already. You just gave me an idea, that could be rather complicated and messy, but helpful. The buy / sell values could be linked to their respective NPC (see the row for sabre above). --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 17:32, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
I think that is a very good idea. :) As other towns have npcs that buy and sell the same items already, some at better prices than others too. Im making a start on a new table now, and wasnt sure how it would be best. Should we link to an npc each time? Even if there isnt another that buys the same item? Would be a bit more work but it may be useful too. beejay 17:57, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
I'm afraid that I'll no longer be able to help with this project as of in game trouble (pvp server says enough I guess) so, it looks like I wont be active in tibia to update prices etc. If you would like, I have made this page User:Beejay/Shops, I had started to add some prices into the table which, prices I still think are correct, I assume that the yalahar prices are also up-to-date. I'm sorry that I can do little more to help. :/ beejay 19:17, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
