Opening a Consignment Shop

| Cat Shop (female). "财" translates from Chinese as "riches". |
Opening a consignment shop, also called a cat shop or a kitty shop, is done via the action menu by pressing the E key.
Once open, hit the consignment shop icon: File:ShopIcon.jpg. This opens the shop screen, and your inventory.
Note: Your safety lock must be off for this to work, so you can't open a shop immediately after logging in.
Selling Items

To sell items from you inventory, drag the item into this part of the screen, located in the upper left. Doing this will open up a drop item menu.
This is used to set your price, and number of items to sell, if you have more than one. To sell all of the items in the stack, hit max. Most items will have the price used for the merchant as the default price, but equipment will start at double that value. Once all this is set, hit done.
The total amount of money you will gain is shown under the items your selling, after the coin icon.
Buying Items
This window, found to the right of the selling screen, is used when you want to buy an item from another player. You need to already have at least one of the item you wish to buy first though. The process is the same as it is for selling items. In this instance though, hitting max on the drop item menu that appears will give you the most you can possibly have of that item.
The Bottom of the Screen
This bottom part of the screen shows how much money you have, the name of your shop, and any messages that other players have left you.
The name is set in the window next to Name. There is a 13 character limit on store names (includes spaces). Once you have items to buy and/or sell and a name for your shop, click done, and wait as players buy your goods.
The value following Coin(s) is how much you currently have in your inventory. It will update as you buy and sell items.
Messages can be left in another Cat Shop by hitting the MSG button, and typing in your message for the player. If you get a message, you can get rid of them by hitting clear, or respond to them, by clicking on the players name, which allows you to whisper the player.
Selling to a Cat Shop
When visiting someone else's cat shop, buying items works just like an NPC shop.
However, to sell them an item:
- They have to have set up that they wish to buy that item (it must appear in the "Buying" half of the window).
- You must drag the item from your inventory and put it onto the item slot in their "Buying" window.
Dropping it into an empty slot does not work, unlike an NPC shop. - If applicable, input the number of items to be sold in the window that opens once you've done this.
- Hit sell, then hit 'accept' as usual.
