| Item | Price | Description upon purchase |
| Sonic Shotgun | 15 Rupees | 'A good choice if you predict situations where non-lethal violence is required. I do advise you to read the instructions first.' |
| Genesis Device | 14 Rupees | 'I advise against the use of this alien technology. Although advanced and reliable, it does pose a serious risk to a human user. Please do read the instructions carefully before using it.' |
| Clonegg 5000 | 10 Rupees | 'My advise would be to use this device to clone an item of significant value. I hope you do not feel I am stating the obvious here. I am merely trying to assist you of course.' |
| Spice Weasel | 7 Rupees | 'This alien critter has been deemed H for Harmless. To humans at least. It is especially useful on space missions where a lack of food supplies is a realistic probability.' |
| Brain Massager | 12 Rupees | 'Stimulus by this device to the human brain has been proven to have a positive effect on its cognitive functions. Prolonged exposure may lead to a serious increase in IQ, which may impact your social life. Please consult a psychotherapist if any such problems should arise.' |
| Betazoid Conductor | 16 Rupees | 'It is a common misunderstanding that this device redirects 'magic'. I could go into detail about its exact functions, but I've calculated that it would take me roughly 127 years to explain this to an average human. I suppose that, for the time being, you can just read the short description.' |
| Unstable Warp Plasm | 9 Rupees | 'Please note that this Warp Plasm is unstable and needs to be contained. Exposure to fire will lead to a fiery explosion. I advise you to only use this under strictly safe circumstances.' |
