 #Go to the Actor Data/Quest section of the Object Window and create a Quest in the same way you created a new NPC
 #Tick start game enabled, enter a quest ID and then click "Ok" in the bottom right, then open the quest again.
 #Make sure to set the priority to 25 under the Quest Data Tab or your NPC will not speak the dialogue.
 #Go into the topics tab of your quest, right click the white list on the left underneath the box Top-level only, right click, select add topic, scroll down to "GREETING" and left click.

+#Repeat the last step but instead of clicking on GREETING, right click an empty area and select New, then name this new topic "Buy" or some other name unique to your NPC that you will recognize. Finally, left click on the topic and press O.K to add it to your dialogue.
 #Now select GREETING from the left section of the window. Right click the info tab  and click new, make the response text whatever you want, this is what your NPC will say when you first talk to him. Also make sure to leave the prompt clear.
 #This is an important step, with your greeting selected in the Info tab right click the Conditions tab and select New. Click the "INVALID" button and scroll down to your NPC's ID, then click OK. This makes it so that only your NPC will use the custom greeting you created. Now make sure that the "Condition Function" box says GetIsId, the "Comparison" Box is == and the "Value" box is 1. Select OK
 #Now select the "Buy"(or something similar) topic once more from the left,right click the info tab, select New and enter what your vendor will say when you select "Buy" into the Response Text box and select OK.
 #In the "Info Details" section, click on the box to the right of the word prompt and enter, unsurprisingly your prompt... i.e- "I'd like to buy something"

 #Also, at the bottom of the window, in the "Result Script (Begin)" box type: SHOWBARTERMENU
 #Finally, Reselect GREETING and go over to the "Add Topic" tab, right click it, select Add Topic and select your "Buy" topic ID.
 #Create a NEW container. The easiest way to do this is to go to the World Objects/Container section of the Object Window and set the filter to generic. Then right click the generic safe, select edit and enter an new ID. Now select OK and a box should pop up asking if you would like to create a new object or re-ID the existing object. Hit 'yes' to create a new one.
-#Once that's done, you are ready to put the container inside your store's cell. A good place to put it is somewhere the player won't be able to gain access to it, like outside a building or undergorund. If you do choose to place it inside the store itself, then be sure the container is locked. Then put whatever you want in it as this is what the merchant will sell. Also make sure to put some caps in it so the vendor has some money to buy some of your things.
