Sign Shops/Quick Shops

There are two ways to buy and sell goods with in-game mechanics. These are via Sign Shops and Quick Shops.

## Chest shop

You need to chop either 2 or 4 logs. 2 for a single chest, or 4 for a double chest. You can use trapped chests as well. You will need 250 yora for a deposit.

To sell items shift left click the chest with the item in hand and type in how much yora you want **per** said item. If you enter if a letter or something which isn't a number, then it will cancel the whole shop creation. Upon completion of your shop 250 yora will be take from your pocket. When you break the chest you will get the 250 yora back.

Open your chest and then fill the chest with your items, left click on the chest and then it will update with how many is in the shop.

### Advantages

+ You can leave the chests for days on end for someone to buy all the stacks inside the chest.
+ It shows when people buy from your chest shops.
+ It also shows the above and the quantity of what they bought and how much you've earned from said shops.
+ Get your 250 yora back if you destroy the chest.
+ Allows you to have 2 chests instead of 1 chest. example: http://i.imgur.com/WHZXj6Q.png
+ Allows you to sell named items. (please note: Do not buy named items with sign shops, it will not end well.)

### Disadvantages

**-**Roll backs. When a roll back happens if or when you have placed down a chest shop, you will be in a slight pickle. As if the chest was to be removed, so would the items inside the chest. And if the chest was removed, then you wont get your 250 yora back from the chest shop. Roll backs happen rarely so you don't really need to worry about this disadvantage.

- Has limited amount of space. 54 stacks of an item to be precise per double chest or 27 stacks per single chest. If you have more than a double chest of items, then you will need our next discussion. Essentials Sign Shop.

## Essentials Sign Shop

Sign shops allows you to have unlimited amount of quantity within it. You have to have the item in your inventory when making it or the item's ID number (you can turn on a debugging function in minecraft with F3 and H to see the id's in game or go here. The reason for using item id's is if for example you have iron ingots and your wanting to sell 1000 of them, then the whole item id name wont fit 1000 of then, but only 99 of them roughly inside the shop.

You create a sign shop entering the following:

Line 1: Must be [Trade] (Must be in the brackets).

Line 2: Here's where it changes. The line will be either the price you are selling a block for OR the amount of blocks you want sold to you for a transaction. I'll make a few examples in a sec. The format is

A) $# (# being the amount of yora you are selling an item for) OR

B) # item (item being the name or item id of the item you are buying, # being the amount you want to sell in one transaction)

Line 3: Again, variable. This is where you either put how much stock is in the shop OR the price you're buying blocks at. The format is:

A) amount item:total (amount is amount of blocks sold in one transaction; item is item; and total is total you put in at the time. i.e. a total of 64 would put in one stack of items into the shop at that moment. Will change on the sign as blocks are detracted and added.) OR

B) $#:total (# here is the amount of yora you are going to give for buying blocks. total is the total amount of yora you are putting into the shop to buy blocks. When this reaches zero, nothing more can be sold to this shop.)

Line 4: You put nothing here. If you made the sign right, your name will appear here automatically when you hit the done button on the sign GUI.

### Advantages

+ No Cost in making this shop.
+ Unlimited amount of yora, which can be stored within the shop.
+ Unlimited amount of quantity of items inside the shop.

### Disadvantages

- Doesn't do what the chest shop does in the terms of showing who has bought what.
- Difficult for a new player to grasp the lines of making the whole sign shop.
- Annoying if you get a line of code wrong, and it invalids the whole sign shop.
- Not Afkable. In terms of, needing to go to the shop, to know if someone has either sold anything to the shop, or bought anything from it.

## Tips

If you have a double chest of items, and 250 yora, then use a chest shop for obvious purposes. If you have more than a double chest of items to sell, then use a sign shop. The reasoning behind this is so that you dont have to go back and forth between shops or places to see if its been sold or not.

If you are a new player, I would start with either selling on the forums or selling in sign shops and work towards the first 250 yora to get your first chest shop. Then afterwards, work towards between 2k to 8k to get market stalls inside capitals, inside towns to get your name out. Or you can always use trade chat /tr and the forums to promote your shops and items. Time to go around and buy some stuff with my 110k left. See you around people.
