As some have noticed, there is a market stall where prices are extremely cheap, that would be mine heh. This however, does create massive shortage as demand is well beyond my ability to meet. My production is limited and I am working towards increasing production considerably. I operate out of a small personal claim, in a terrible location, partial of someone's town, and my own town, which is still under construction, no bloody defenses yet lol. It is in a good location and will be able to produce much more product.
Rather than increase prices to ensure that some items are always available, I prefer not to increase prices, it would counter my poor farmer role, I will be considering increasing some 3s items to 4s. My goal isn't to max out making as much silver as possible, but to mass produce items and then to offer cheap and inexpensive items to our salem hunters and explorers to the point its not worth it for you to bother doing it yourself. Many prefer not to concentrate so much on farming as I do, as i don't like to explore or hunt and generally despise that part of the game.
Current items entering the stall are of no concern and not part of my objective. Some garden items will not appear anymore on the stall, but instead they will be made into various gluttony foods to max their effectiveness by using my own purity flour and water, which currently is 4-5% pure or 1.40x. Prices will not reflect any current purity as it is still extremely low and not worth my time. For example a wheat sugar cap pie would start at 14s and if I ever get good purity gluttony foods on the stall, they will be cheap as well.
Until then, I am sorry if it is nearly or empty most of the time. It is all work in progress, as with many things, time consuming. If your wondering, I closely manage about 150 farm fields, 40 bins, 30 pots, 18 timber piles, and a turkey coop...Which i seem to starve all the turkeys to death frequently. I do have plans to get into iron bars, but not anytime soon. That's prob a good 2 weeks away, before i can start production, then there's town defenses...So, yeah, not anytime soon.
