+====== Ring of Haggler ======
+{{ rpd:images:ring_of_haggler_item.png|Ring of Haggler }}
+The **Ring of Haggler** is a rare ring in Remixed Dungeon that reduces the prices of items in shops, making valuable equipment more affordable.
+==== Item Overview ====
+  * **Type:** Accessory (Ring)
+  * **Rarity:** Rare
+  * **Special Effect:** Reduces shop prices by 50% (buying) and increases selling prices by 50% (not based on ring level)
+  * **Usage:** Passive effect when equipped
+==== Special Mechanics ====
+  * **Price Reduction:** When buying items from shops, the price is exactly halved when the Haggling buff is active (not percentage-based on ring level)
+  * **Selling Adjustment:** When selling items to shops, the price is increased by 50% when the Haggling buff is active
+  * **Mechanism:** The ring provides the Haggling buff which is detected by the Shopkeeper's pricing logic
+  * **No Level Dependency:** The haggling effect is not enhanced by ring level, so upgrading provides no additional benefit
+  * **Identification:** Becomes identified after being worn for a period of time (200 turns by default)
+  * **Curse Effect:** When cursed, the ring still provides the haggling effect but with negative consequences as with other cursed rings
+==== Strategy ====
+  * Essential for getting better value for your gold when purchasing from shops
+  * Allows purchase of higher-tier equipment that would otherwise be unaffordable
+  * Does not benefit from upgrades, so finding a high-level one provides no advantage over a +0
+  * Particularly useful in later levels where equipment is more expensive
+  * Consider equipping early if you rely heavily on shop purchases
+  * Valuable for players who want to maximize their equipment quality
+  * Useful for selling items at higher prices to shops
+==== Obtaining ====
+  * Found rarely throughout dungeon levels
+  * Available in shops (when not identified)
+  * Dropped by various enemies
+  * Found in containers and special rooms
+  * Part of rare treasure drops
+==== Effect ====
+When worn, the Ring of Haggler halves all shop prices when buying items and increases selling prices by 50%, allowing for better value when purchasing and selling equipment and items.
+According to the game's string resources: "This ring will cause shopkeepers to offer slightly better deals. The effect is equal to 5% per ring level for or against you." (Note: This description is misleading as the actual effect is not based on ring level)
