THE SPIV

An old ~~cocknez~~ term for a ~~pettz~~ crook who can turn his hand to anything as long as it doesn't involve hard work. Though he's an unsavoury character, The Spiv is a useful contact - he can get you ammunition for your weapons... for a price.

Press the [[File:PSB-X.png]] button again to continue to purchase items until you have either bought as many as you can carry or you have run out of money.

In that screen you will see an icon of an item and the number of items of that type you can buy, and another number to the right of it, indicating how much it will cost you to buy. Note that you can only purchase the given amount of that item - for instance, if you wish to buy 30 shots for you [[pistol]], you will still be charged 30G for 50 shots. The amount you already own of the given item will be displayed in the bottom border.

[[Treasure|TREASURE]]

Any treasure that you find will go into your money pile at the top of the screen. You can then use this to buy items from the Spiv. Learn to spend wisely though, there may be items you can get for free that will cost you dearly if bought from the Spiv...
