===Buying===
When you first meet Harold it is a good idea to ask for help.

<pre>

<buyer> help

<Harold> Would you like help in buying or help in selling?
<buyer> buying
<Harold> If you want to buy something, say show and I will list current open offers with an offer number.
If you want to accept one of the offers, say accept number to buy the item offered with that number.
I am happy to filter the offer list for you, just tell me for example show meat to only see meat related offers.
</pre>
Actually I wanted to see all food type offers, so, I said show food, and I saw this:

Harold has told me that I need to accept offers by using the number. I like that pie offer, which is number 2. So, to accept the offer of a pie for 100 money, I say accept 2. He checks I really want to buy it:
Harold has told me that I need to accept offers by using the number. I like that pie offer, which is number 2. So, to accept the offer of a pie for 100 money, I say accept 2. He checks I really want to buy it:


:<buyer> accept 2
<pre>
:<Harold> Do you want to buy a pie for 100 money?
<buyer> accept 2
:<buyer> yes
<Harold> Do you want to buy a pie for 100 money?

<buyer> yes
If you say <font color="blue">show</font> you find out everything he has for sale:
</pre>

[[Image:NPC Harold Show.png]]

so that you can ask him to show you about the specific item, e.g. say <font color="blue">show black armor</font>

'''Advanced 'show' use'''

If you are actually interested in all armor you can ask him to <font color="blue">show armor</font> - to get the possible 'general names' look at the [http://stendhal.game-host.org/item/ items] listing, where the 'classes' like 'ammunition' and 'armor' are shown. You can also ask for, say, <font color="blue">show black</font> which will match any offer with 'black' in it.

===Selling===

[[Image:NPC Harold Selling.png|border]]

So for example to sell a dwarf cloak for 200 money you say
:<seller>sell dwarf cloak 200

You can sell multiple items in one offer if they are ones that stack in your bag. So for example if you want to sell 10 meat for 100 money, you say
:<seller>sell 10 meat 100

You can make up to three offers at a time.

To check your current offers say
:<seller>show mine

which will show you a list with numbers like

[[Image:NPC Harold Mine.png]]

and to remove any from the list, use the number. If I want to remove the iron offer I will say
:<seller>remove 2

When someone has bought some items I can fetch the money they paid with <font color="blue">fetch</font>.

'''Expired Offers'''

Offers will expire after some days, and Harold will warn you with <player>postman</player>. You can check expired offers in a similar way to checking active offers, but with <font color="blue">show expired</font>. To remove this offer and get the item back, ask to remove the offer number shown just as before. To put an offer back onto the market after it has expired, again use the number, like
:<seller>prolong 1

After making a change like that you need to show the list again to be able to change further offers.
