I was thinking. If, in NPC shops, you could check off as many items as you wanted to buy one of. Than, for however many items you checked, you would be able to buy, but with an extra fee.

1 or more of the same item=0% fee
2 different items=5% fee
3 different items=15% fee
4 different items=20% fee
5 different items=30% fee
6 different items=40% fee
7 different items=55% fee
8 different items=65% fee
9 different items=80% fee
10 different items=95% fee

This would keep users from buying bulk different all the time, because if you bought ten items, the original fee would be high, and then basically doubled.
"I'm pretty sure that we're not able to buy multiple items in a shop to make things more fair, and the capcha adds to that too. I'd certainly hate it if I was trying to buy some food for my pet and found the store suddenly bought out."


I agree on this con, suggested by Graveyardfox.

If I'm understanding this right, your suggesting a feature that allows us to picture bulk of different items at the same time, yet adding a fee to discourage it?

My question is why anyone would do this? XD Everyone's already used to buying a single item (sometimes in bulk) then going back to the shop to buy another single item. Everyone's used to this method, so why would anyone try to adjust to a new method that costs them more? Sure, it's a little easier, but not enough to justify the cost.

I'm pretty sure that we're not able to buy multiple items in a shop to make things more fair, and the capcha adds to that too. I'd certainly hate it if I was trying to buy some food for my pet and found the store suddenly bought out.
