How Buttercup's shop appears in the game.
A merchant is a pony or other NPC that will buy and/or sell items with a player pony.
Where found[]
Merchants are located in all communities. They are not openly identified, but are typically standing in business-like settings.
Use[]
- Main article: Shop
Initiating the sales menu with a merchant pony is very similar to talking with them; click on the pony to get a menu that includes the option "Sell" and click Sell or Alt+t. From the sales menu, items can be purchased or sold. While merchants will only sell a limited number of items, they will purchase anything that can be sold.
There are some ponies who will offer items through their dialogue instead of a shop menu. As of Open Server Event 9, these ponies are Flan and, once the quest Clearing Up the Rainy Days is started, Miss Chanteuse. Non-shop merchant ponies are unable to buy items. See their article for the specifics.

Trivia[]
- It's been implied by a member of the development team that merchants with empty shops are not intentional. During Open Server Event 9 (August, 2015), these included Business Class, Foreshadow, Guard Farlong, Magnetic Drift, and Quicksand. Their status was corrected after the OSE was ended.
