Takkaria requested a proposal on what store items should
* Always be available in stores in unlimited quantity,
* Generally be available, and
* Should occasionally be available
So, here's my go. Feel free to suggest alterations, insult my reasoning, etc. I'm just going by what's currently sold in the stores (visible by looking at store.txt, except for the general store which is special-coded), so I'm not suggesting new items or removing existing items. That could probably be done here too though.
General Store
Everything in this store should be infinitely available. Cloaks and ammo should always be nonmagical, if they aren't already.
Armoury
Current loadout is fine, though I suggest adding basic cloaks as a generally-available item.
Weaponsmith
Current loadout is fine.
Temple
Should infinitely] have the first 2 prayer books, scrolls of Light
Should generally have the second 2 prayer books; potions of Heroism and scrolls of Holy Chant (both in moderately large stacks)
Should occasionally have all hafted weapons except for the Mace of Disruption.
Alchemist
Should infinitely have Word of Recall, Phase Door, Trap Detection, Satisfy Hunger
Should generally have everything else currently in its list.
Currently, I feel that Recharging and Magic Mapping are a bit too rare.
Magic Shop
Should infinitely have the first 2 spellbooks
Should generally have second 2 spellbooks, staves of Teleportation, Detect Evil; wands of Magic Missile, Stinking Cloud
Rest is good.
