True or False? I don't know.
I know for certain one of the early trade "empires" owns two stalls and only bothered to stock one. It seems logical that others would have bought stalls as well, and 3 stalls have never had any items for sale that I know of. My complaints about this as a valid mechanic to reduce competition between traders is likely where those rumours came from in part at least.
It's been neat to see the evolution of a game. Salem has come so far, and still has far to go. Although frustrating, I think it's been an experience worth the effort.
