It keeps track of who sold each item and how much they will receive when they pay for it. Then tracks the royalties so they can come back and collect them.

This will be run as a handler object so that npcs and rooms can both run as this sort of shop.

NB: This object is not saved using save_object. You need to set the save and load functions for this system to work.
