/buymerch

Script-provided

Registered by buymerch. Start it with /lua run buymerch.

Syntax

/buymerch <item name> [qty]
/buymerch list | help
/buymerch id <id> <slot> [qty]

Description

Buy from an open NPC merchant by item name, verifying that the item actually arrives in your bags before reporting success. A thin CLI over lib.merchant.

Open the merchant window first, then run the command.

Subcommands

Subcommand	What
<item name>	Buy 1 of the named item. The whole line is the name.
<item name> <qty>	Buy <qty>, e.g. /buymerch Water Flask 5. *<qty> is the explicit form.
list	Show the merchant's buy list.
id <id> <slot> [qty]	Direct send — skip the name lookup and buy by id + slot.
dump [i]	Raw record probe (diagnostics).
raw <tail>	Send buy_from_merchant <tail> verbatim.
help	Print usage.

Safety

• Buying spends coin, once per command — there is no loop, no "buy all", and no retry.
• Every buy is verified: the item must arrive in the bags, or the result is reported UNCONFIRMED, not success. A merchant that refused (no coin, sold out, session ended) or a wrong id/slot shows up as unconfirmed rather than a silent failure.
• Ids and slots are read live per merchant open and never cached.

Examples

/lua run buymerch
/buymerch list
/buymerch Coldain Ring          # buy 1
/buymerch Water Flask 20        # buy 20
/lua stop buymerch

Across the group (each box buys from its own open merchant):

/dge /buymerch Water Flask 20
