Doyleton Purchase Guide and Request

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] [livejournal.com profile] _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]



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.

I posted this in advance because the hardware store doesn't have a detailed listing. Would it even have toolbelts? /fff, fails at ever going into a hardware store.

Purchase?

[identity profile] not-rly-fai.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Character: [Fai D. Flourite] [livejournal.com profile] not_rly_fai
Requested Item(s): As much as he can drink.
Current Funds: $25
Do you need a NPC mod for this transaction?: Posting this in advance because I wasn't sure. Probably going to post Fai to the bar a little around lunch? But didn't know if he'd need to be ID'd or something? Do the cards have age listed? Are the nurses/soldiers cool with them drinking? D:

Re: Purchase?

[identity profile] notachick.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
How old is Fai? The nurses are only allowing those 18 or older into the bar and the drinking age is 21, so if he doesn't meet the age requirement, he wouldn't be allowed to drink.

Re: Purchase?

[identity profile] not-rly-fai.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
It's never expressly stated in canon, but his Landels listed age is 24. He's actually much older, though they never state exactly how much older.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION RE: BUYING/DRINKING/GAMBLING

[identity profile] notachick.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
If anyone is looking to buy, gamble or drink anything at the Bar and Casino, please look at this information post (http://damned-lounge.livejournal.com/2496796.html) before posting any purchasing or gambling requests here.

Re: Purchase?

[identity profile] notachick.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Then he'd be allowed, yeah. Mathers would look to the nurses to see if he's of age, and then he'd be allowed to order. However, please check the information post linked below for more details on what he can buy/afford and how much he'd be allowed to drink at the bar.
