Cash Shop: Black Market

Greetings, Subeta.
I am User not found: inspector thorpe of the Ziara City Police Department; perhaps you remember me. It would seem as though Piña Park's resident hoodlum, that no-good terracoon who appropriately calls himself The Hustler, has been up to more mischief than usual. Reports have been filed that he has been intercepting shipment trucks destined for other locations on Subeta and selling the stolen goods in the Cash Shop, setting up his own black market.
Unfortunately, I do not have enough evidence to arrest him, so I will need you to chip in once again. Verify the stories are true. Investigate the Cash Shop and confirm that he is selling these items! From the reports made, I have deduced that the stock rotates often, so make sure you check at all hours to catch him unawares! Should you manage to buy something from him, you will be awarded with an achievement, and I will allow you to keep the item. We at the ZCPD won't need it; I just need to catch him in the act!

I really doubt they'll give the achievement out retroactively. They wouldn't do it for the "only room for one" achievement.
mmmm P:
I don't think it's really too long, I think it was an interesting way to announce it all;
and I mean for pete's sakes it's only about a paragraph guys. besides all that no one is forcing you to read it, T^T"
although I think I'd specify.... I take it this is only available via the CSC version of the Hustler and not the origional himself?

Hmm, I've been buying items from him for weeks now but no achievement. Guess they just added it.

Yay I got a cute scarf I never would have gotten otherwise.
Now just get lots of my WL items and we're good to go 'cough'

You just have to do it again ^^

No CSC's to try it anyways... <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
I bought one earlier <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />

I suppose "CS Shop" is a bit redundant... <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

Is this an actual plot or just a clever way of announcing the Hustler's CS shop?
Shame the achievement isn't retroactive. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />

Bah, I've bought four things in there over the last couple of days, and now I'm out of CSC again. :/ Nice timing. XD
...what if we bought from the hustler before? is there any way to get the achievement from previous purchases? :<

i brought a wicked candle from him the other day -shifty eyes- no achievement <i>then</i>. perhaps i should've held off a couple of days <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> not buying a scarf just for an achievement, lol

this is a really tl;dr way to say that you get an achievement by buying from the hustler now...

lol achievement earned
ooops...should've checked what I was buying first
definitely have NO NEED FOR A SCARF

woot just bought the scarf xD I was debating whether to get it, the achievement is a bonus <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />



gosh Thorpe, can't you do ANYTHING yourself?
That said, kinda makes me wish I hadn't just splurged so much CSC on autotraining >:| I like achievements
