It always struck me as a little strange how merchants would be willing to buy nearly broken knives and guns that are far below the quality of items they sell. Having a minimum value that merchants accept would also discourage people form developing alphabet syndrome and carrying around 17 guns in hopes of selling them to squeak out a few meager charons. Minimum value would be the item’s base value without mercantile/difficulty modifiers. Merchant minimums would be something like SGS 3k, Junkyard 4k, Blaine/Hawthorne/Rail Crossing 5k, Core City/Marty 6k, Foundry/Free Drones/Procterate/Expedition merchants 7k, Oligarch merchants/Constantine/Hannah 8k. Inferior quality weapons and armor will no longer be flooding the economy with this change.
