Doyleton Purchase Guide and Request

[psyches]

If your character is looking to purchase something, you've come to the right place. Most of the businesses in Doyleton are willing to offer goods and services to Landel's Institute patients so long as they have the proper amount of funds in their cards. Though the overall concept is fairly simple, there are a few things players will need to keep in mind before making an IC purchase:

1. Not everything is up for sale. All shopkeepers will bar patients from purchasing anything potentially dangerous or cumbersome (e.g., knives at Kitchin' Fixins or larger electronics like computers).

2. All purchases will be confiscated by the military when the patients board the buses at the end of the day. They will be returned at dinner along with their usual NS-only items (unless they've misbehaved).

3. Patients can trying haggling for a better bargain, but harassment of any townspeople will not be tolerated. Anyone abusing Doyleton folk will be warned and punished accordingly.

4. A patient can make a purchase with someone else's card so long as the card's owner is beside them during the time of purchase. A good rule of thumb to use is RL approach to credit cards. If a patient can't prove they are authorized to use the card, they cannot buy. There will be no exceptions.

5. Patient purchases do not require a NPC mod every time. You may request for one if the circumstances call for it, but in general, if the patient just wants to buy something simple, go ahead and have them do so in your own posts (after you receive the proper approval for the purchase, of course).

If your character plans to buy something, please fill out the following form first:

SUBJECT LINE: Purchase
Character: [Character name] _username_here
Requested Item(s): What your character is looking to buy?
Current Funds: Tell us how much is on your character's card.
Do you need a NPC mod for this transaction?: Y/N
Day #: [location here]

<b>SUBJECT LINE:</b> Purchase <b>Character:</b> [Character name] <lj site="livejournal.com" user="_username_here"> <b>Requested Item(s):</b> <b>Current Funds:</b> $ <b>Do you need a NPC mod for this transaction?:</b> Y/N <a href="relevant thread if NPC mod is required">Day #: [location here]</a>

Post this form to the appropriate location, and a NPC mod will approve/reject the request as well as let you know of the costs involved. Please do not go forward with the purchase until a NPC mod approves your request.

As usual, if you have any questions, feel free to ask here (make sure to mark the subject line as Question) or throw us a contact.

Purchase... sorry

Character: Klavier Gavin rocksthecourt
Requested Item(s): One of those reusable grocery bags; Boxed snacks (granola bars, energy bars); Drinks that come in packs (fruit juices, carbonated drinks); Little, empty food containers, but barring that he'll look for jarred pickles; those little fruit cocktail snack cup things, preferably the ones with plastic covers that can be reused but he won't be picky if it's the peel off top kind; EDIT - Also possibly an apple or two (THE GUY IS HUNGRY)
Current Funds: $15
Do you need a NPC mod for this transaction?: Nope! Also, I don't have a link because I wanted to ask before he even got there. He's probably going to be looking all over town for stuff. Additionally, he's not necessarily buying everything listed above. Those are just the items he will be looking for and will decide what and how much he'll buy according to an admissible budget because he is such a responsible adult like that. :| They're listed by priority.
