Simply put it in your game, no assembly required.
To keep a shop from buying certain types of items, use these in a call script right before the shop processing:
$sg_doesntbuy_item = true
$sg_doesntbuy_armor = true
$sg_doesntbuy_weapon = true
To have a shop buy only certain items from that set, use these (not the one for that type above):
$sg_onlybuys_item = [#,#]
$sg_onlybuys_armor = [#,#]
$sg_onlybuys_weapon = [#]
Those are arrays, use [#,#,#] and [#,#,#,#,#] to add more items to the list. Replace the #s with the item #'s from the database. Make sure you disable the other types of items from being sold if you want the shop to only buy those items.
You can mix and match them however you want. All of these settings are automatically removed after the shop has been called.
