I need a 2 Tone Loafer for my last mission to get Hostage Negotiation. Only back for a while cause I saw the August Sleuth Update in the mail and it boasted of the University opening in Cairo. Wanna see what it looks like in there and look if maybe they teach Divinity or the like. =P

Fatima, yoyo: We have both Cowboy's Vest and Rasputin's Egg in stock. PM me whenever you can so we can trade. I so hope you have the loafer as well, but if you don't, Ill still sell you the item you need for cash no problem. Have fun guys and gals!

I was wondering why you have to travel to Deli to trade, a simpler solution would be
for someone simply add and then remove the person from an agency.

as long as your current agency team members agreed let you back in and everybody was honest, this would work. (I suppose you would loose stored cases if you didn't transfer them to other people first)

and you wouldn't loose turns or money traveling to deli, I have plenty of ok things I wish to sell that are not worth traveling to deli for. (I think the shop rips me off 1000 for a +4 charm +4 tough bomber jacket)

I could register a new detective (once off payment) and get him to set up an agency for this purpose. (small trading commision wouldn't be bad)

If an admin tells me if this unacceptable behaviour I will not do this, but it seems within rules of the game.

You don't have to travel anywhere to trade items. The original post was just to try and make things easier if needed. But most people just PM each other and agree that one person will leave their current agency, join the other persons agency, exchange the item/money and then return to their home agency. It can be in the same city or you can travel. It is up to you.

At one time there were agencies in each city that were to be used for exchanging, but since trading items is not a full time task, those went away. Now it is done more or less in private between the interested parties.

And no, leaving an agency does not make your cases in the files disappear. they will still be there. As for making an agency and charging a commission for trading, well, I guess you can, but I do not think you will be seeing much business, as most people will still just go directly to the other persons agency instead of a third party.

Oh and The Shire in Delhi is not even around anymore. So you can't go there to trade. If you have items you wish to trade or sell, you can post them here and then the people interested can PM you and you can discuss the details of how you will exchange the items.

Oh and since trading has to be done inside an agency, you MUST be subscribed in order to do it. (just covering all basics)

One small detail about leaving your agency. Any case files you marked as private become public when you leave.

Arabella is right that almost all the trading is now done directly from agency to agency. We have acted as a middle man for people at Closers if they need to drop off gear for someone where scheduling is a problem but those are rare cases.

Wanted Portable Bar or similar.
Swap Boater Hat.

Our agency locker has turned one of our agent's Portable bar into a Boater hat. They said the Nightclub was haunted...

It's a Smarts for Charm swap, so portable bar or equivalent really.

Thanks.
