    I've had a run with a party that I had to abbandon unfortunatly, but during this run I discovered something. The priestess in the shark city (whatever it is called) where you can buy/sell stuff gives you higher prices when you sell stuff then when you buy the exact same stuff! I always save some of the more expensive stuff for this priestesss since she gives the most money for it, but then I discovered she bought the stuff for the high price and sold it back to me, for a lower value! Made a fortune before I got tired of buying/selling!

    ^And yet no fix or patch has made an attempt to fix it AFAIK. Or is it really the game design? Shark-people with fish-memory! Or they are just so grateful to PC and his crones due to Sekolath's prophecy? Hmm...

    It's fixed, though don't recall if it's EoU or Baldurdash that does it.

    Hmm I thought I had baldurdash fix pack, but the bug was never fixed. Strange...Maybe my version is old?
