Investing in Item shops

[SpectreKP]

I'm sure there are people who want to get a lot of certain items, particularly from lower world shops (I'm looking at you, Pickle), it would also be nice to be able to bump up certain world 1 items in order to get a green stack, since you can typically only get 900 per day.

So starting out, I'm aware there's a huge issue with this concept, namely the Power Statue. If you could infinitely invest into the stocking of this item, you could end up in a situation where you can purchase millions of them every day (up to as much as as your income allows), and just end up with a base power (without any multipliers) that is very high (of course the statue cost requirements would scale accordingly). The solution to this, if Lava actually cared about that very slow power creep if people actually bothered to waste resources on that, would be just to limit certain items that can directly increase a player's resources on an **Infinite Scale**.. which is pretty much the Power statue and potential boss items (silver bags, silver antique).. and so on.

So essentially, the way I see this working would be that you would invest "Coins" at a shop in order to increase the daily amount of a certain item is stocked per day. The investment cost could depend on the value of the item, and would likely slowly scale higher you go (or not, depends), basically allowing you to purchase more of a shop item daily due to a larger initial cost up front. Need enough Pickles to get that green vial for that skill? Chuck a few green coins in and get enough pickles to last you (honestly, I feel like someone would want to green cap their pickles, so maybe don't make it expensive.), Want to get green stacks of useless world 1 food items? sure, go ahead and justify their existence, considering most people likely skipped over many of them. The main point it'd be up to players what they dump their coins on once they have that Pickle vial greened out. If they really want to dump all their cash on daily artwork sales for the goldman, instead of the wildly increasing costs of the stamp franchise, they should probably go ahead. Honestly, Stamps, kitchens and the Hare in divinity should be eating up all your cash.. such a small benefit really would be a waste of time.

I mostly want this feature so I can actually get a green vial for pickles.

+1 (statue issue is solvable by just excluding some items from this, and also honestly if you crystal farm w1 you get so many its insane so it makes it not an issue )
