(1) The selling price is the same as what you would have gained by selling to vendors, including the effect of brand. But remember that the requirements for the last 2 vendors (Tropical Country and Ice Country) ONLY count the sale you made through other vendors!! So try not to use this stall that frequently before unlocking vendors & blueprints.

(2) No effect of rate affecting the selling price. Not getting some extra money as in the “recommended shipping categories” of the vendors. Meanwhile the selling price remains the same even if you ship stacks after stacks of tea leaves.

[ Xian’s response: I know you will always buy at full price no matter how many times I put the same outfit on sale! That’s the business mindset of targeting what customers want! ]

(3) You can sell at either full price (retail price). The more items put on sale at half price, the faster the things are sold off. You can only have 10 items listed at one time (10 slots), though the quantity can be selected freely. So you can sell the fried rice in single plate or 10 of them in 1 slot.

[ Pictured: There is no effect of people attracting with the bell’s sound. But I love the character’s animation when using bell ]

(4) There will be special group of affluent NPC buying your stuffs. And they buy it all the times, seeing their fortune can have no other place to spend on. In my experience, I got the message of ‘My shop is run out of goods to sell‘ as early as on 6.15am & as late as on 2am. So you just put the things & let them buy it throughout the day and night.

[ Xian’s response: Hey bro! I can cook everything and anything as long as I have the recipe. Just name it & I will make it within seconds! ]

(5) The list of favorite store by those NPC is redundant because they have no fixed schedule, nor can you do anything to affect their appearance, so just leave your stuffs and let those rich people ponder on whether to buy. Instead of that I made this table of selling rate (how fast things are sold), still I have to wonder what does “0%“ mean...no sale at all?? Well, maybe will know it when I reach the next season.

If you’re interested to read more of my posts & pictures related to own stall, feel free to check out

this post where I suddenly remember there is this thing in this game (with pictures of each stall from guidebook!);

this post where you will see “50% off!” is a huge temptation to all kinds of customers, be it in video games or in real life (with pictures of the 10 richest people that will buy anything you sell);

this post where I have my first store--a Juice Stand opening during a raining day in summer, and that 20% on above table is no kidding (with pictures of the stall);

this post where I discover everyone takes a peek at how much I earn (and deposit) in the store, this is not cool (with pictures of customer’s comment on how much I have earned);

this post where I try my best to make out what items are on the display (with pictures of the types of shop available);

AND this post where I test whether there will be any actual profit from using own stall to sell things. Outcome: nope. (with picture of Xian playing with the bell).

That’s all! Phew! I will post other pictures of interest if I find anything interesting about this business thing.
