Another hint for trading posts:  Go in with a full load,ie every letter up to
and including v containing an item.  Then ask the price of an item, and then
attempt to buy it.  It will say that you have no more room, and then tell you
what the item is, exactly, including plusses, curses and the like.  The drop
something if you wish to buy that item.
