Well.. I've searched and searched but so far nothing.. is there a way to tell from a script if the object containing the script is 'For Sale'? even better, what the 'Buy' price is?

This seems to be covered by https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-398 - so maybe add your comments and vote there so they don't get lost in the noise.

dynamicly check the contents of a box and set the buy/pay price... or for verifying that a correct price has been set
(for example, see the lovely new bug with coalescence and multiple buy objects) just off the top of my head _____________________

Not sure a new bug, a bug that LL has declared Show Stopper and will probably fix soon, is a good enough reason to add a new LSL feature. For checking the price of something, you can just mouse hover over it - I'm not sure I see what being able to do this from a script gets you.
The OP asked for the ability to see if an object's for sale and maybe get the price. _____________________

For checking the price of something, you can just mouse hover over it - I'm not sure I see what being able to do this from a script gets you. I can see a very good reason for it. What if you owned a shop, sold items in objects which were for sale. You want to keep track of sales. So have a script that detects if an item has been sold (changed event. Check changed_owner bit) and update whatever website you've got setup. The script could read the buy price of the package and update the server with whom, how much and what. 1 Generic script could do the whole lot. The alternative is to have a seperate script for each package being sold which you'd have to manually set the price of. Or have a config notecard with the price in that. And each time you changed the price of the package, you'd have the change the script or notecard. Woops you forgot a few. Sales figures are all out of kilter. I can see a very very good reason for an llGetBuyPrice(), llSetBuyPrice() command set. |

dynamically create objects for sale... at least w/ set buy (because there is no way to 'pay' to get the original)....
