If you're going off the pawn shop, that is totally incorrect. Dick is being a dick and charging you way more than he should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, OP, the pawn shop is a stupid thing to base the retail price of Zombrex on. Everything is overpriced because Dick loves to make you pay more. Besides, unless there's proof that Katey was bitten at the heart of the infection, I doubt Chuck's been helping her stay alive for two years. Maybe a few months, but I really doubt anything more.

What do you mean I doubt he's been helping her for 2 years? Its his daughter hes going to help her for aslong as he can but yer Zombrex in the Pawn shop is way over-priced as its in high demand, also its suplied for free you dont have to pay for it if you get from the medical authorities. Either way hes a famous motor-cross racer so im sure hes got some cash tucked away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll also be earning money to get Zombrex through the Trial of Terror, or whatever it's called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frunkis Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Dick charges 5000 dollars for an old car battery duct taped to a rake. I think he might overcharge for things just a bit. He's the kind of guy that would charge you 3500 dollars for a couple of tips, just moments after saving his life from a mob of zombies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braddelo Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Did nobody see that the vending machine is $100? Obviously the $ amounts are marked up. It wouldn't be fun with a realistic amount of money. "how much for that moose head?" "Oh $10 seems fair." Boring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deaf_Paradox Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Why do you think they named the pawn shop owner DICK, seriously!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quickdraw Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 case zero we expect from then to dead rising was 3years since she was 4 in zero and 7 in dr2, so thats 3 years the military quarantined off the area so it must have happened recently to case zero since what was it 3 days before they roll in to blow everything up, so surely somewhere between 2-4 days between the first cases known lockdown to kill everything. you cant see the wound in case zero but with the bandage suggests its fresh. zombrex could be cheaper on a whole, but due to the "outbreak" prices ofc can be ramped up since people will pay anything to get themselves some of it, being a motocross champ must have been a good income regardless of the price, big sponsor deals, big moneys!.

Tyger7 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Well, considering the outbreak and the fact you can run into any store/casino and loot the place, Dick was basically giving him everything for free. He is a very nice, reasonable pawnshop owner. His shop is right next to the casino, and did that place look raided? Nope, you got to raid it! Dick is an honest hard working employee, you all have it wrong. He could have made you trade anything, but all he got was money, which is almost worthless in that town.

GoJoeThibaultGo Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Chuck is also sponsored by Zombrex, so maybe hes getting it for free? and at the time Dead Rising 2 takes place, zombrex lasts for 24 hours, so he wouldnt have to buy it as often.

Brutalsleeper Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Well when the Zombrex parent runs out the company that manafactures Zombrex will market lose exclusivity and the price will be driven down. So chuck has that to look forward to . Seriously though inflation has obviously taken hold due to the fact that money is useless to the zombies that make up 99% of Still Creek.

The_Pieman Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 okay, so theres clearly an inflation issue whenever the game takes place considering i paid $100 for a snack from a vending machine, in today's costs a vending machine snack would probably be around $1 so we're talking 1:100 ratio so adjusted to inflation dick is really charging $250 which is...a bit more than your average pharmaceutical co-pay, but it is in high demand so i guess its reasonable and the fact it inhibits your zombification i'd say its worth it although i still think dick is being a dick for charging you for items (i mean charging for the zombrex i can understand that) he charges you $50 for items i can make/loot myself, i guess its more convenient but its still kinda dumb cause dick says he "still needs to make ends meet".....-_- hello dick theres a zombie outbreak which you were about to become a part of had i not come along, why don't you just loot everything like everyone else is its not like your town has any government anymore no need to still be a good citizen.....but if he insists...maybe he has his own plans...

SpinelesS Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 All we know about Chuck's Daughter is that the zombie who bit her was her Mother. We have no idea how long ago this happened before case zero. As for Dead Rising 2: The government subsidises the cost of Zombrex It now last for 24 hours between doses, and is in pill format.

ThrustPumpkin Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 for all of u asking how long it has been since katey was bitten. it was pretty recent she's 4, i think, so if it was two years ago she most likely would not remember getting bitten. she asks her dad (chuck) in one of the cutscenes "why did mommy bite me".
