Comments:
Shopaholic Girl is a very helpful NPC that was implemented for easier market navigation. It helps both buyer and seller meet through broadcast. The Search Shop on the other hand protects buyers from over priced sellers since the buyer can easily look for the cheapest vend of a certain item.
The limitation however is that it can only search on Prontera City and not on other towns. But the thing is other market cities does not have a big number of vendors as Prontera City.
