Gadgetzan Trading Co.

[Ormica]

Gadgetzan Trading Company

"You wanna sell your goods with no worries about nasty thieves? Come join us you lovely merchants you!" The merchants line up to sell their wares and Collecters walk around taking the just 10% tax for keeping these merchants safe. "For a mere amount of your profits me and my men can keep your merchandise from certain 'accidents' from happening in Gadgetzan. Enjoy your stay with us and we will even do the advertising."

ICly

This guild is to make all these merchants "safe" in Gadgetzan in which your lovely master merchant Ambiquian Iskegqui is paying for. Of course selling your wares here can lead to arranged accidents if your not paying or working for Ambiquian.

OOCly

This is in -no- means trying to take from or be better then the U.T.U this guild will have no true events until Cata. Otherwise this guild is to add for more merchant RP. Yes if you plan on joining through I will ask to use only IC money, now I'll be putting up how the prices will work and such for more realism. Again this is not to take away from the trained traders or the U.T.U

Rules ICly

First: Do what Ambiquian says.

Second: Pay ten percent of all profits to the Collecters, yes this means -every- copper if it's odd the more goes to the Collecters.

Third: If you get caught doing something wrong... we will rat what else you've done to the guards so we look even better.

Fourth: Sell your wares only in Gadgetzan or if your traveling with an enforcer.

Rules OOCly

First: All forum rules apply (No you don't get no fancy link!)

Second: If your going to try and cheat us tell me OOC so I can look the other way for a little and don't be afraid to do so. I'd just like to ICly roll for it and not be completely out of it.

Ranks

Head Honcho: Ambiquian fills this and he's the leader.

Collecter: Can take the 10% tax and are -supposed- to give 7% of that to Ambiquian.

Enforcer: Bodyguards and "Enforcers" of Ambiquian's clients. They are the ones ment to beat the crap out of anyone that may irk Ambiquian.

Merchant: Sell their wares for IC money then must pay 10% or be beaten by Enforcers.

Indebt: People who haven't payed their dues and are "slaves" as such. They have 40% of profits taken until debt is payed off... with a "little" interest.

Other Wonderful Stuffs

I would like all IC money transactions posted here I'd make a sheet but that's more up to you just be clear so I can look over it.

That's it.

(So I'm a moron and forgot to post this)

Price helpling

So here are some examples of what I have come to think of realistic

Examples:

Standard Items

Rags
Free!

Poor Commoner's Clothing
5 silver

Common Commoner's Clothing
20 silver

Good Commoner's Clothing
50 silver

Cloth Armor
1 gold

Leather Armor

Mail Armor
3 gold

Plate Armor

Shield
1 gold

One-handed Melee Weapon

Two-handed Melee Weapon

Begger's Quality
Divide price by 5

Poor Quality
Divide price by 2

This is, of course, assuming that we're speaking in terms of standard gear; something that would make you comparable to a footsoldier. Most actual starting adventurers would likely not start with everything of such a price.

Business Report
(Yes I said I wouldn't do this but I have time...)

Character name:

Character Rank:

Items sold:

Price of items:

Total money made:

Other:

[Aethon]

1. A bag of wheat= 7 copper

2. A decent sword= 34 copper

4. A masterwork sword= 82 copper

5. Chain Breastplate= 5 silver

6. Horse= 13 silver

7. Small ship= 83 silver

8. Medium ship= 1 gold

9. House= 3 gold

These prices are-very very very- low. A house would cost around 8-13 golds
A boat would cost more than the house.
Amors are quite expensive too IG. Let me link you something.

It's a bit outdated, but if you check the second page there is a more realistic price-table-thingy. =)

Anyway...You could merge with the mighty U.T.U. >: )

[Ormica]

I've changed the prices now so that they fit that guide a little better.

Might I add that everyone does have a chance to get payed a little for working under Ambiquian?

[Ormica]

I'm going to make this post quick and simple cause I gtg for RL soon. So I'm wanting to add more IC money benefits and thought... Everyone loves to gamble, right? So Gadgetzan Trading Co. will be presenting a great game to gamble in. It'll be based on dice rolls and all you need to do is roll on a number for some profit. To be more realistic it'll be on a lower scale betting (Meaning please don't bet gold, silvers do fine). With this the "house" (us) will take a little off the top of a winning bet and boom you get a little more money if you win. If you lose we keep it to pay for the people that win. Easy enough to follow? I'm thinking of setting up a big game of it probably on the 3rd even, just depends. Anyone feel lucky?

Rules: Dealer rolls a 10 sided die and you bet on -one- number, if it lands on that number you double your bet (Give or take a little for the house of course). Limit of three people per table.

Raloesh stabs Ormica for edging in on his business.

[Ormica]

Why stab when you can join and gain more profits?

[Nikodemos]

Nope, working on special project after the Cataclysm with him. No spoilers.

So are we still using the IC gold? Okay so if my first question would be answered that'd be nice...

But anywho anyone with interest I would like to make a party in Gadgetzan and I have plans and such for it but I'm going to post up some of the games to be played I just know I'll need some dancing girls (If possible) and some dealers for the tables. If ya'll have any of the characters for this they'll make a small amount of money doing this (small because Ambiquian's cheap as hell :P).

Rolling Skulls- Ya bet on 2 numbers on a d15 and if either number is rolled we match the bet

Hit 'em!- You roll a d10 and if you get a 7 we match your bet

There may be more and I would like any suggestions you guys may have. The one thing is it must be stacked in the house's favor, Ambiquian hates lossing money. The bets will be very small and probably will be capped at 20 copper a bet. Its not about the money it's about the game :P Plus we all need money for auctions or other rp so keeping in coppers will also make sure you lose not to much and I want to add a little value for some of us use gold like candy to kids. So yeah that'll rap up what I have until I can finaly download Cata

[c0rzilla]

We are not using the IC gold system, far as I know.
