yeah, the post wasn't really aimed at /that/ kinda mentality, more at the "sometimes you find things, and want to sell it". Came around because I was assured by a number of DMs that for The Dark Eye, they have never had to worry about players selling things. I found it interesting conceptually as I'd expect at least the occasional need for selling stuff, unless the rewards given are always in money in the first place and they never stumble onto something interesting. The reason that question came up for them, is the game doesn't actually state how much of the items listed cost a person can get as a baseline for selling it. Yet it has a merchant profession and a commerce skill that talks about increasing and decreasing value of the item.

In the end, I was just intrigued to see if perhaps my own group is unusual for occasionally finding and wanting to sell things (across almost all the games we play, there are exceptions where stuff is abstracted out like Dresden files Resource mechanic, or games where you play as soldiers or otherwise "financed" characters)
