Re-appraising items once they are in your inventory

[Ed, The fan fan fan]

Is there a way to re-appraise items once they are your inventory? For example if a customer gives you a gift are you able to examine it? Bought a "base metal" ring that was actually 24k gold and want to appraise it as such after buying it. Thanks in advance.

You can't reappraise when they're in your inventory... but more expensive items also can net much better profits when placed back on your showcase. So you're paying them more for the item, but it'll pay off in the long run. Usually.

Yeah once something is appraised, that's it unfortunately. However, you can begin to keep information back from people such as if they think its a base metal, but its gold (and you caught that its gold) then you can keep that secret to yourself to increase your profits.

Wait, your two comments contradict one-another.

If you *can't* re-appraise something in your inventory, how can you *use* that "it's gold" fact to make more money!?

You can't go back, after the customer leaves, and add the 'gold' card you left out ... so it doesn't make you any more money than it would if it weren't made of gold at all. /=

You unlock the ability to have 2 different "private" cards that don't affect what YOU pay, but DO affect what you can SELL for. So you can't re-appraise items, but you can essentially lie to someone through omission to buy something for much cheaper than it is worth. However, this has consequences if done too often or for too much value, so I tend not to bother.
