About
Appraisal Board membership representative
An Appraiser Board Member offers Appraisal Board membership on day 8, or day 5 with Skip Intro. Joining costs a fee set by the difficulty (85 on Price Gouge and Mark Up, 170 on Thin Margins, 255 on Red Ink) and gives the Appraisal Board Junior Certificate and tools. You can refuse, or postpone the offer by seven days as many times as you like.

- SPrepare for this customer
- A seller of goods that are hard to get elsewhere, equipment, a reward or an unlock the specialization's route depends on, a deadline or branch to decide in advance, or a danger of major loss such as game over, arrest or confiscation makes advance preparation worthwhile. A high priority does not mean every purchase or report is recommended.
- AUseful in the right situation
- A main buyer of your goods, a seller of some of your inputs, a side income, optional input, reputation opportunity or conditional risk matters when the matching stock, branch or cash need exists. Check the condition before reserving scarce money or goods.
- BOrdinary response is enough
- The specialization does not normally depend on this customer's goods or outcome. Serve an appropriate incidental trade when the visitor comes without planning the business around it; a low priority does not remove legal or safety consequences.
