Bazaar
From Puzzle Pirates
A bazaar is a building with many stalls of the same type. The entrance to the bazaar is a room which allows any pirate to comparison shop across the island for the goods produced by the stalls in the bazaar (both stalls and shoppes). There is also a desk which allows you to open your own stall. From the entry room, you can choose to enter any of the stalls in the bazaar.
Anyone can open their own stall in a bazaar with some amount of PoE, which is determined by the type of stall, the stall size (small, medium, deluxe), the population of the island, and the island's tax rate. Doubloon oceans also require 10 doubloons to open a stall.
You can open only one stall in each bazaar, but there are no other limits to how many stalls you can open. Stalls do not have deeds and cannot be transferred from one player to another.
Small stalls have an owner but no managers. A medium stall may have a manager. A deluxe stall may have up to two managers.
[edit] Deed
The deed to the bazaar gives the deed holder access to the notes in the entrance to the building. There are no additional menus or administrative tasks that the deed holder may do. A bazaar may not have any managers, does not have a hold, cannot be painted, pays no taxes, and receives no cut of business.
The deed to the bazaar is transfered to the new governor whenever the governor changes, either by flag appointment or by victory in a blockade. As such, it is often given to an individual as a token vanity object.
[edit] Historical Notes
Bazaars were added to the game for release 2004-04-28 which also introduced comparison shopping.
Originally, starting a stall required various commodities as well as PoE, but that was changed in release unspecified, shortly after Merchant Brigands were introduced.
