Market Stalling

"Excuse me, how much is this doll?"


I turned around and looked around, needing a moment before I looked down over my stall to see the young girl with a doll I didn't recognise from my stock.


"I'll need to see it, Miss."


She politely handed it over and quickly looked it over. I couldn't find a price label on it anywhere.


"Umm... Five dollars."


"Oh I can't afford that, sorry."


She walked away.


Now, I would argue that doesn't constitute a legal transfer of property, but the ghosts inside it clearly don't actually care about legal definitions of words.
