I really like what I've read about this, but a question occurs to me: will the Appraise skill be at useful?

I'd like to work it in somehow, perhaps along with the regional fluctuations and other adjustments we have planned. Currently, though, it does nothing. Soon? =)

It does nothing. Might do some day.

Items being worth more in different areas. I imagine he means that metal armours will be more expensive in TC but Leathers will be cheaper. The opposite being true in RK. That kind of thing.

The way I read it is you go round the store picking stuff up off the shelves, trying it out etc. then take it to the counter. So I'd say not the original trade window system...

It sounds like walking out of the store with an unpurchased item is a shortcut for returning it to the box where you got it from. The new system is try before you buy, so you're allowed to use weapons in the store without purchasing them (there will be dummies and archery targets). If you want to buy them you walk up to the store owner and checkout, otherwise you just leave.

There must be a way of stealing from stores, it's just so fun :) You could always have the shopkeeper raise an alarm or something...
