Shop Glitch

As with Death Skip, there is more than one method of executing the Shop Glitch. The Standard method of executing it uses the Faerie Card acquired in the Library, and it and the other methods are detailed below.

Faerie Card Shop Glitch

Executing the Faerie Card Shop Glitch requires a high-value Gem (preferably a Garnet), and a Faerie Card Relic which has not yet been activated. It also requires that you have not yet visited the Shop in your run.

  1. Stand just outside of the doorway to the Shop
  2. While standing still, enable the Fearie Card Relic, and wait a few seconds for the Faerie to speak
  3. Once the Faerie begins to speak, quickly enter the Shop while she is still talking
  4. Once in the shop, open the Sell Gem menu
  5. While the Sell Gem menu is still open, open your Equipment menu (without the Faerie glitch, you would ordinarily be prevented from accessing your Equipment menu while in the Shop)
  6. Equip the Garnet (or other Gem) you collected earlier
  7. Leave your Equipment menu and return to the Sell Gem menu (note that your equipped Gem can still be sold)
  8. Sell the gem you just equipped

At this point, you should have 255 of the Gem you sold (thanks to an integer underflow that occurred when you sold the Gem you had equipped), which you can freely sell for enough money to buy the Duplicator and other shop items.
