Shop

The Shop is a feature in item asylum. It is one of the sections that can be accessed in the Menu GUI. It is where players can spend on Emotes and Tags using their Points. 
==Overview==
The Shop can be accessed by clicking the shopping cart icon in the Menu. Here, the player will see two buttons; Emotes and Tags. Clicking on either of them will take you to their perspective Shops. Both of the accessible Shops have similar looks. If the player want to exit the Shop they're visiting, they can just click the shopping cart icon to be taken back to the main page, or just leave the Menu. On the main page, the Shopkeeper Dummy is seen, doing his job and just sitting at his desk. Each time the player revisits the main page, Shopkeeper Dummy will sometimes switch poses and often say a quote in text. 
The poses the Shopkeeper does includes: 
* Him standing rightside up.
* Him handstanding, before falling down, stand up, walking to his previous position, and handstanding again.
* the man being on his head.
*Him with his arm against his desk and his head against his arm. After a while, he will pull out a board from the album art of stage 6 of Everywhere at the End of Time, similar to the one in Thunderstorm.
*Him flipping a coin.

==Shops==
Shops that can be accessible by clicking their perspective buttons on the main page. Currently, only two shop exists.
===Emotes Shop===
Where players can buy some taunts: some expensive, and some cheap. You can scroll down to buy the emotes you're looking for. Found one? Click on it (common sense). Clicking on an emote will trigger an Emote Preview where Shopkeeper Dummy does the emote, Emote name, description, price and PURCHASE button appear below the preview. The only thing you have to do now is decide: Do you wanna buy it or not?
===Nametags Shop ===
Just like the Emotes shop, except for nametags. Clicking on a tag will trigger a Tag Preview, where the tag is displayed with your ROBLOX username included. You know what to do.
==Trivia== 
*The Shop GUI, along with Points, Emotes, and Tags was added in V0.4 as a new feature.
**However, due to the Menu not existing at the time, they were added as separate buttons that are just right next to the CHAT button. Each of the buttons have the same icon as they have now.
**Each of the buttons also send to their respective Shops still, but the only differences is that it looks completely different.
* The Shop existed prior to V0.4, except there's absolutely nothing in it as the Emotes, Points, and Tags haven't made an addition. The only thing that is in the Shop are just text that reads "Coming soon! :)".
** The Emote Preview displays the Combat Dummy instead of the Shopkeeper Dummy.
*In V0.7, the Shop GUI have received its promised revamp. Now, all of the buttons have been mixed together in the new Menu GUI. Their Shops also received visual changes, and the Shopkeeper Dummy now took ahold of the Shop.
*There is no shop for Gamepasses, forcing you to go to the game's page to buy them.
*During the 2023 April Fools Update, the Shopkeeper Dummy was replaced by an Invincible Dummy from Allusions.
** He can sometimes appear rarely when opening the shop.
*Some of the shopkeeper quotes have references to various forms of media, or item asylum lore and development history. Some of the quotes that fall under these categories are:
**"I'm a businessman. Professionals have standards." includes part of Sniper's rules from Meet the Sniper.
**"Lamp oil, ropes, bombs? You want it? It's yours my friends. As long as you have enough points." references Morshu, a character from Link: The Faces of Evil.

**"Those beta devs keep stealing my stuff." and "It's a common misconception that the Beta devs are the actual devs. They're not. They're just scrapped clones." reference Boss_beta.
**"Sixteen people went missing during October. Rumors says they were last seen entering an abandoned elevator shaft." seems to either reference The Normal Elevator or RTGame's Ace Attorney streams, with the elevator shaft from Episode 5 of the first game being a injoke with him.
**"I can never get hit by others in my ffa_thunderstorm shop, I think there's something wrong with my humanoid.", "I put a sign outside my ffa_thunderstorm shop to attract more customers. Do you think it's working?", and "ffa_thunderstorm kinda gets lonely. Come visit once in a while..." reference the Shopkeeper's shop in ffa_thunderstorm.

**"PortABites is pretty scrumptious if I do say so myself." is a reference to the PortABites store in mu_grenzemall.
**"Bodies are disappearing left and right, funeral homes are running out of business." may be a reference to the corpses of dead players simply disappearing and respawning after five seconds.
***Alternatively, this can also be a reference to smile's ability to consume bodies or Inferi.
**"The devs told me not to mention anything to do with April 1st, 2023. I don't know why." is a reference to April Fools 2023, the event that completely "overhauled" the game by messing up the functions of many weapons and changing the UI, along with adding actual new content.
**"I heard about the strongest swordperson in the world taking a visit to a nearby area. I'd watch out if I were you, their mom gave them a cool new gift." references the Mihawk set in JGN.
