Vendor

Vendors (also known as Shop Keepers) are NPCs in both Golden Sun games. When spoken to from across the counter they will sell or buy various items. When spoken to from behind the counter they may address just about any subject, ranging from current events in the area to going-ons in their personal life, and it is not uncommon or unexpected for vendors to touch upon item-related topics. There is at least one vendor in each major town. Many vendors look the same (dependent on what they sell), although some towns have vendors with a unique appearance. There are four basic types of vendors:


 * Vendors that sell consumable and miscellaneous items, usually female.
 * Vendors that sell weapons. In Golden Sun, the weapon vendor is a balding man with a mustache. Golden Sun: The Lost Age introduces a new weapon vendor (alongside the old one) who looks similar to the armor vendor from the first game.
 * Vendors that sell armor. In Golden Sun, the armor vendor is a man with a mustache wearing a green vest. The Lost Age introduces a new armor vendor (alongside the old one) who looks similar to the weapon vendor from the first game.
 * In some towns, there is only one vendor who sells all items sold by the other three types of vendors.
