Only 6 sickles a guess!
13 sickles gets you three guesses!
6 wrong guesses gets you a consolation prize!
Buy a hint for just 1 galleon! Quote:

...And then a striking blonde woman was stepping up to the table. Dylan caught West's eye and cleared his throat. Naturally, he didn't mind having a go first. He'd earlier exceed and be awesome...or fail...and feel embarrassed. Either way...
Ahem.
With a brilliant smile in place, the Captain greeted the woman. "Hello, ma'ma." He glanced down at the black fabric. "Would you like to try your chances and 'win the lot'?" Yep, he was throwing in part of West's mini-slogan. He gave sly eyes. "Just six sickles..."
Ola smiled at the blond boy. She was a ma'am? Cute. Where was Plymouth when he needed such reminders hmm? She knew her boyfriend still sketched himself out about their age difference. Ma'am was fine with her for that reason.
Her eyes flickered to the sign and she read over it again, pursing her lips before smiling. "Is it for a good cause?"

West watched Dylan tackle (not literally) the first customer and added casually,
"Or three guesses for thirteen sickles." Because that was a true thing. "If you guess right that'd be an amazing deal you know, all these eggs," He gestured at the covered jars,
"For just thirteen sickles and one egg does retail for a galleon at Slug and Jiggers you know."

"I do know actually." Ola answered the younger boy, giving him a little smile before fixing her attention on the blond again. "How about a hint and three guesses?" A little under 2 galleons, she didn't mind that. Quote:

So embarrassing...Ves couldn't even...
BLINK.
Was that....West?
Sneaking off, she quickly made her way over to the table and eyed the sign out in front. He was selling....a potions ingredient? Ashwinder eggs?....Oh, those were the ones that blew up if you didn't care for them properly, right?
"West Odessa...making extra money?" GRIN. West lit up.
"Ves!" GRIN.
"You know it. Don't suppose you want to give it a go? Its a good deal. C'mon take a chance." He gave her the most winning smile he could muster.
"We've gotta sell these for part of our Care of Magical Creatures homework, and since they're charging us for a whole lot of things at the moment... kinda need to make bank." He explained, leaning forward and tapping one of the covered jars.
"Can I interest you in a couple of guesses? Every six wrong guesses gets you a consolation prize." ooc: for my reference -
