With all the recently involvement of the Fae, and their unusual end, Apricot and Cantalope have noticed a distinct slowdown in the availability of goods in our area. That's why they're stepping up their consignment work!! Do you have goods you want to sell? Do you need more room in your saddlebags? Do you want someone who will do all the work for you and just give you handfuls of dinars when they see you? Then the Fruity Merchants are your answer! Just get in touch with them and let them know you are interested, and they will set up a meeting to come take a look at your goods, take them off your hands and get started selling them!

In light of the upcoming holiday season, the Fruity Merchants have, after much deliberation and reorganizing, decided to offer a sale!   All items are hereby half off until December 15th, midnight.  Place your orders now!!  Apricot was even heard to say that she might even consider bargaining or trading!  Check out Sassafras Lily's Perfectly Pretty Piraeus Promenade Press Presentation for more details!

Returning from their long journey, the Fruity Merchants have come back with some intriguing new goods, including a large extension of the Costumes section.  You know you want your own poofy bunny tail! Only 50 dinars!!   And for concerned consumers, fear not, Apricot and Cantalope have recently renewed their lease on their two Piraeus warehouses.  Warlord troubles?  Not for those two cutie fruities!

The Fruity Merchants have gone wandering north, south, east and west in search of wonderful new goods to offer for sale.  They expect to be back for a brief unloading period sometime in May, then back off again in search of more goodies.   Orders can be placed in the meantime, but fulfillment will not occur until at least mid-May!  Thanks for your understanding. *skip - bounce!*

The most horrible fire recently swept through the Fruity Merchant's warehouses in Piraeus!  They lost only a few items of merchandise (not yet all accounted for), but unfortunately, all of their scrolls of recently placed orders and consignment lists were burnt to a crisp.  If you placed an order or RFC in or after September that has not yet been filled, please contact the Fruity Merchants, and they will do their best to get you the items you have requested.

Always happy to serve (perhaps a little too happy), Apricot cheerfully announced the opening of a new warehouse in Piraeus to the local merchants' guild last week.  It seems their inventory got so big with the latest new shipment, they had to expand to a neighboring building.

They expect to have the new merchandise inventoried, priced and added to the What's For Sale lists really really soon!
