Separate an asking price from useful income
Money becomes useful when you know what it will change on the island. A player shop needs stock, visitors and the funds required for its trades; a high asking price alone does not prove that an item sells for that amount. Treat the selling setup and the reason to buy as separate decisions.
Read Sell Items for the player-shop routine and Item Values for comparing offers without importing a fixed original-Islands price list. Money Making helps you choose between gathering, farming and selling activities. Spending Guide then turns the result into a focused next purchase.

Is an expensive listing a reliable item value?
