Speckard used to buy some generic loot (low level scrolls and such). Now, his replacement (Wily Williams) does not. This may be intentional, but I doubt it.

It's intentional. Norma still exists though!

This may change in the future due to general changes in the game world.

Norma's in Upper. >_>

That's true, but considering the circumstances the marketplace has been invaded by beggars, looters and dubious fellows in general. I find it highly unlikely that any of them will purchase wares.

As I said above, this is a change that I plan to eventually make in the near future as the game world changes. Sorry about the inconvenience!
