Feliam (can't remember his last name), the halfling just outside Trollsbane says he will buy hams for 2 copper each, but he doesn't respond when I say "I want to sell a ham" or "I want to sell 1 ham" or anything.
ALSO, I've tried to buy grain from him like 10 times and all he does is take my money. It's very frustrating.

Nadir kann auch nicht rechnen:
Korso: price of 1 pfeil
Nadir: Ein Pfeil kostet 5 Kupferstücke.
Korso: i want to buy 20 pfeil
Nadir: Ihr möchtet 20 Pfeil kaufen? Bitte sehr, macht dann 40 Kupferstücke.
Korso: i want to buy 5 pfeil
Nadir: Ihr möchtet 5 Pfeil kaufen? Bitte sehr, macht dann 35 Kupferstücke.
Hä? 5? oder doch nur 2? Geld abgezogen hat er das was er auch gesagt hat, nur einmal falsch, einmal richtig gerechnet, und das direkt hintereinander...![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

The helfling that sells farming supplies in Greenbare. When you say you want to buy seed or seeds, he will sell you hats instated. When you say I want to buy withered cabbage he sells you begs, which I accudly bougt five of.

I am currently compiling a list of NPC's and what they buy and sell for my own personal use, and have experimented buying things from each one. There's a lot of inconsistency:
- I don't understand how Mugush (back of Eliza's shop, Trolls Bane) can sell two empty bottles that look different but are named the same thing. I haven't tried to buy them, but that struck me as odd.
- Sorgan Stonemate (outside of the perpetually locked building in south Trolls Bane) has the same phenomenon: he sells two waraxes, and believe me one looks a lot better than the other.
- Elinas (Tol Vanima, top of the elven castle-building) sells a hatchet, but to buy it you must say "axe." This is potentially confusing and I know for me it was frustrating as hell. The same thing applies to Sam in the Rose Gray (or Gray Rose, or whatever that castle is called north of Trolls Bane.) And the same thing with Elinas and the slicer/plane deal.
- This has already been mentioned, but Feliam Wardstock (by the farmland at Trolls Bane) has the grain glitch. Money stealer.
- I was talking with a GM the other day and she mentioned that the reason that one halfling in Greenbriar might sell bags instead of cabbage seeds is because it sees the "bag" part of cab"bag"e before it can realize you're trying to buy the other. You might want to have that one call bags "sacks" or something.
- When trying to sell Marick (inside the smithery, Trolls Bane) 50 gray cloth one time, he said he didn't have enough money. But when I sold him 5 at a time, it was fine.
EDIT: - Also, when you try to buy "grey cloth" from Marick (which is what it is listed as when you ask him to list his wares), he doesn't sell that item. But if you try to buy/sell "gray cloth" it works.
I'm sure there are more, but I certainly haven't bought every supply from every NPC or even catalogued them yet. The main thing I want (even more than fixing the things that are glitching) is consistency with what already works. If you're having one sell a hatchet, I'd like to buy 1 hatchet please, not guess at what the correct word is (even though that's half the fun of Illarion: guessing what works.)
Yeah. I'm sorry if this sounds berating. I'm very to the point, just to lay it all out there. I promise it doesn't upset me at all.
I just want to bring it to the attention of the programmers!
Happy NPC bug-hunting!

Hey guys, some more NPC glitches:
Maris Maroqu (inside the smithery at Trolls Bane) sells and buys what is labeled as "leather gloves", but they are really cloth gloves.
Tony Baggins (outside the perpetually locked building at Trolls Bane), when asked what he will pay for the items he buys, will only tell what he will pay for a hat.
He also will not buy foot leaf, and claims he doesn't even though it is in the menu. I tried "foot leaf", "footleaf" and "foot leef."
Sorgan Stonemate (dwarf outside smithery) doesn't respond to any questions about "waraxe." There are two things listed as waraxe, as well, which may be a problem. And he doesn't respond to questions about the price of an iron ingot. I tried "iron ingot", "ironingot" and "ingot."
Elinas sells planes listed as "slicers." I don't know if this is intentional. I think it's a common note given by many players.
Then there's the constant listing of an axe as a "hatchet" and the confusion that ensues if you do not already know this.
Sam at the Grey Rose sells a pick-axe, but if you try to buy a "pick-axe" he will sell you an "axe" (hatchet) instead and you can't sell it back. You must use the command "pickaxe."
