What can I do in the shops?
The shops are the places where you spend your hard-earned Gaia Gold and outfit yourself. Here you can purchase pants, shirts, hats and even costumes for your avatar.
If you want to know what an item is, simply click on it and a description box will pop up showing you its name, a description of the item and how much it costs.
In addition to these, it will also give you the following options:
- Buy — allows to you purchase the item using your Gaia Gold funds.
- Preview — shows you how the item will look like when equipped on your avatar. The item may substitute for something that you’re already wearing — for example if you’re wearing a hat already and would like to preview another one.
- Cancel — stops a transaction and closes the window
- Buy With Credit — allows to purchase an item using Gaia Credits.
- Add to Wish List — If this is an item that you would like to purchase at a future time and want to keep track of, you can add it to your Wish List. Items in your wish list will show up in your profile page. It’s also a great way for others to find out what you want or are looking for. A generous soul may surprise you one day.
After purchasing, any items that you buy from the store are automatically added to your inventory.
You can also SELL your items back to the store by clicking on your OWN inventory items.
How do I sell an item back to the store?
While at a store, you can click-select any item in your inventory. It will bring up the following choices:
- Sell — allows you to sell an item back to the store. The standard buy-back price for a store is 50% of the store price.
- Cancel — stops a transaction and closes the window.
- Give as Gift — allows to you wrap the item as a gift and give it to a friend or any other Gaia member.
Can I haggle over prices?
There’s not even an option to haggle, so the answer is no. The price shown is what you’ll have to pay. If you don’t like the store’s prices maybe you can find the item you’re looking for in the Marketplace.
Where do I get inks?
Ink can be obtained only as a trade. If you have 50 or more bugs of the same kind in your inventory, Moira in Durem will present you with her 揈xchange Bugs?section and the ink(s) that you can trade for them.
Some ink colors are direct trades for bugs, while others have to be made by combining different inks.
Where do I buy flower bouquets?
You have to pick your own flowers before they can be made into bouquets. Rina in Barton can help you put together a bouquet of flowers for yourself or that special Gaia Friend. At the store you can have Rina make you:
- Single flower bouquets
- Regular flower bouquets
- Deluxe flower bouquets
The more complex the bouquet, the more Gold it costs to make and the more flowers it requires. You can also dye the paper and wrappings that you use for your bouquet using inks.
