A starter card I thought of...
Stock Cards come in 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3,
Starter
Stock Card dolla 3
Sell units for 1 dolla
All cards that change Stan's prices are play immediately
Low
cards are 1 dolla
units are 0
High
Cards 10 dolla
units are 5 dolla
Basically adding stock to KB.

Let me explain this again:
For 3 dolla a player can buy a stock card
That card has 1,2 or 3 units
That player can trade in those units for one dolla each
Or he an wait untill the shop is a higher price and make money
Or he can wait until the shop is lower to buy them
Or he sell them for less just to feed his bunny
All the shop cards are PI because then a player can't choose weather or not he wants to play it.
I think that there should be more than just high,low and starter prices.
I just wanted to see what the people here thought.

Ok now I get it (I think) I just don't like it. Fair enough. I wasn't too esusatic about the card just thought I'd post it to see what people thought. I was hoping people could modify the orginal idea to try to get another better one. |

Perhaps I should explain my inspriation for the card.
I was looking at the seller remorase card and I thought that a player that had a high card in ther hand could buy lots of water at low prices then play the high card then play buyers remoarse and make big bucks.
I thought a store based on this might be cool.
I couldn't really work out the flaws though.
Perhaps a shop that you can sell cabbage and water cards.

I really, really like the idea of a stock market. Must be from my watching my 401k dwindle like Pac-man after getting killed. (bee-you-you-you….bwamp-bwamp)
My suggestion would be hard to keep track of, but goes as follows:
The small cards would be a deck of 12, split below
Small Card Stock Multipliers:
0 – Company bankrupt (3 per deck)
1- Normal stock (7 per deck)
2 – Stock split (2 per deck)
The carrots are what trigger the market. Each time a carrot(s) is taken from the market (by CAC, $, or any other means), roll the yellow die. That is the new cost of a small stock card. You may also sell your stocks at that dice value, multiplied by the multiplier on the card.
You may buy stock or sell stock on your turn, but not both.
Stock price is 12 at the beginning of the game.
Example:
The first carrot is CAC’d, the carrot owner (Player A) rolls the yellow dice, it comes up ‘3’. Deciding he has cash, he decides to buy two cards for a total of $6. One is a normal stock, the other is ‘company bankrupt’, which he can keep.
Later in the game, another carrot is chosen by player ‘B’, the yellow dice roll is ‘9’. When it becomes player A’s turn again, he may sell his stock card for $9 x 1 (normal stock) = $9.
Other stuff: PI cards include:
Stock market crash – everyone discards all stock small cards they own
Recession - everyone must discard one of their small stock cards. (Which is why player A in the example above kept his ‘bankrupt’ card instead of ditching it immediately.)
Growth – everyone who has at least one small stock card may draw another one.
Other stuff: ‘Diverse Portfolio’ can be used to sell stock out of turn if you have it saved.

The problem is that the price cold be hard to keep track of (even with the chips) so instead you could include the card with a Speckled Golden Recon 12 Sided Dice or some other die that is only used for the stock market. You can keep it on the table(with the current price on top) so everybody knows the price. |

How about Cabbage Card 1 dolla Water Card 1 dolla Defense 2 dolla Pawn 2 dolla All cards and Pawns in the second hand store cannot be purcahsed.(But can be Piflered) How would it be a store if you can't buy anything from them? I think mine was confusing because it sold everything like Rooney's does with the values of everything... |

Hmm well I guess you could buy the last card in the discard for ten dolla... Actually, I was thinking of making it so cards from the discard pile can be purchased for the amount of the roll of the clear die, but I wasn't sure because starter cards don't have die boxes... |
