==Welcome to the Corporate Shopping Mall==
 
The Galleria is basically a mall. Corporations are able to rent out a shop inside the mall for a certain amount of money. They must then hire a NPC to run the store. At that point they can stock the store with any item they wish and set the price for it.
 
Just like with apartments, there are only a certain number of available shops to rent. This has lead to several defunct corps having shops and not actually sell shit. This is due to the corp having a large amount of money left and the low price of rent on these shops.


=== Features ===
* '''[[Corporation|corp]] shops''' are here. Player corps in the game can stock items in them and sell them to other players using this area.
** Renting a shop spot costs some cash, as does hiring a storekeeper to tend it. There is also a limited number of shop slots.
** Both upkeep fees are relatively low, so the Galleria has many stores belonging to dead corps which don't actually stock anything but never run out of money.
** Shops can be stocked with {{cmd|stock item in case}}, and prices changed with {{cmd|-shopkeep price item at number}}.
** Highly priced items may incur tax fees. This is to prevent clowns from using Galleria shops as display cases with over-inflated prices.
* The '''store directory'' is here, on the westernmost tile of the zone. Using {{cmd|find item in dir}}, it's possible to search all existing player stores in the Galleria for a specific thing.
* There is a '''restroom''' here, to the north of the westernmost tile. The sink is a safe source of drinking water.

It is most notable for being the easiest place to visit player-stocked shops, rather than regular NPC stores. If you are looking for something you can't find from an NPC or tradenet, the Galleria is a good place to start.
