Well-Adjusted Al's General Store

Located in Southeast Baldur's Gate near the docks that lead to the city's harbor and surrounded by two warehouses, a generic house, and an abandoned house, Well-Adjusted Al's General Store has the doors open all day and night – one of two General Stores in the district, the other being the Shop further up north. In the original Baldur's Gate, these two stores build a cooperative, together with two others in Southwest Baldur's Gate, and sell potions. The store offers ranged weapons in the Enhanced Edition.
==Background==
The store is a single-floor, rectangular-shaped building with two doors that open to the southeast. Typical generic store furniture – such as shelves and tables – divide the single room, break line of sight and create small nooks. Well-Adjusted Al is found standing between two shelves along the southern wall (between the doors), while male and female commoners browse the store's wares between 5:30 in the morning to 9:30 in the evening. Well-Adjusted Al himself is here to trade twenty-four-seven … still a bit crazy, ain't he?
Some daggers , darts , an Oil of Speed and a Potion of Absorption are found amongst the shelves and a bag, but even taking a look into those containers – if not done unnoticed or by a shadowdancer using their abilities – will summon the authorities, specifically one Flaming Fist Enforcer who will arrest the alleged thieves. Rogues can try to steal from the shop, with a skill of only five usually being sufficient; if that fails however, the same Flaming Fist Enforcer together with two comrades will arrive to arrest the party.
==Involvement==
: The following information is about Well-Adjusted Al's General Store in the Enhanced Edition – for the store in the original game, see Potion Shop
Well-Adjusted Al's General Store offers a standard stock of throwing and other ranged weapons. Of note are the twenty-five arrows of piercing that can be found among the mundane regular ammunition, of which there is an unlimited stock. Prices are average, well-adjusted so to say, also for selling items here – with a wider range of them being accepted, including melee weapons, armor and some other stuff; see below for a detailed list of what can be divested at a depreciation rate of only three percent.
Any magical item can be identified for the usual rate of one hundred gold.

==Notes==
* The respective store file, STO1302, is already present in the original Baldur's Gate]] code, but isn't referenced by any merchant in that game; instead, Well-Adjusted Al's General Store shares its stock with the Potion Shop (see also below). Only the Enhanced Edition makes the store accessible, changing solely the amount of available throwing axes in its stock to not be infinite anymore.
* The product range is identical to that of one of the General Stores in Southwest Baldur's Gate.
==Bugs==
* Though being a storekeep of his own running a General Store of his own in Southeast Baldur's Gate, agreeing to trade with Well-Adjusted Al in the original Baldur's Gate will give access to a store that – among others – shares its stock with the Potion Shop in Southwest Baldur's Gate; "share stock" means, what is bought here cannot be bought there anymore and what was sold there can be found here again. This is fixed in the Enhanced Edition – all stores have separate stocks.
