How do I buy a newspaper?
Newspapers can be bought from both newspaper boxes (there is one in the Mended Drum, for example), or from the various paperboys and girls that wander the streets.

The syntax for buying a newspaper from a paperboy is:

list goods of paperboy > The paperboy says to you: I have the following items for sale:
The paperboy says to you: I have twenty copies of The Green Slab for 5p each.

And then:

buy paper from paperboy
You ask the paperboy about buying a closed copy of The Green Slab.
> You pay the paperboy 5p.
The paperboy gives you a closed copy of The Green Slab.

And that's all there is to it!

To buy a paper from a paperbox you 'buy paper from box' or 'pull door on box'.
