nope he will be applauded and praised for it. the only way he could do better than this is to give away cash incentive on top of it. Half the guild are experience whores and care nothing about making a profit.

Underselling and competition is part of being a trader. BUT, no fees for preforming a service makes no sense. Anyway, not the place to argue about this. I will still charge 5% regardless.

Here's why I will still get business, despite Bag's senseless underselling:
I will be in town when he's not and someone needs to sell. Plus, I dont think someone offering a service for free like that to strangers should be trusted anyway (in an RP sense that is, and you cant really RP the excuse that it's for the exp).
Plus, they being in the locksmith union, would understand how it would feel if someone was giving away thousands of lockpicks when they're supposed to be 2gk a piece. Bags is doing the same thing to us by not charging a fee for an obvious service, he's ruining the market and it would be bad karma for anyone to support it.
I think that the commoners will still come to You and I Gossford. Im charging an honest, 5% fee for my service, they dont need to worry about a tip or anything, 5% is all that I want. Ill make them more money, Ill make myself a lil money, we both win.
Once again, I live in Zoluren, can be contacted on AIM at "Old Man KLC"

when those of the shadows know that bags will give 'em a fair deal, bags has the reciprocation of having that curtesy extended to when he's out making money with his caravan, and doens't get dipped into.

I just wanted to make you see that business are not always started for cash. Experience is a valid choice for doing things. If a trader is in it for the experience, then they can get more customers by offering a better cash benefit than those that are in it for the money. It's simple business.

The Thieves guild and traders guild could find it profitable on both sides be it that the trader makes money or some other form of compensation.
Gossford would not be IC to provide such services for experience alone. Other traders would probably be more than happy to pawn goods that you find just laying around. Discreet enquiries around the gem shop may lead to avenues of benificial relationships.

I will say at least Gossford has the good sense to conduct his biz in Muspar'i quietly and politely. Although I assume if I was a trader in Muspar'i knowing that 1000's of ranks of stealing were roaming the streets daily, I would probably keep a low profile myself.
