Shady Salesman

Template:Tabor Template:Characterbox The Shady Salesman (also called the RYNO Salesman) was a traveling black market merchant who made a living from selling rare or illegal weapons and gadgets for hefty prices.

Ratchet and Clank first encountered him in Blackwater City on Rilgar, where he offered to trade a (presumably illegal) RYNO for Clank. Ratchet joked around about accepting, and refused, but Ratchet could buy the RYNO for a hefty 150,000 bolts.

It was shown in the epilogue that he had been caught and put on trial, pleading not guilty. He apparently was declared innocent or escaped jail as the duo later encountered him outside the MegaCorp Games arena on Joba, where he sold them a Levitator so that they could get in even though it was sold out.

He claimed he had to "relocate." His only appearance afterwards is at the Secret Agent Clank Premiere. He appeared to be the same species as Skid McMarx.

Trivia

• He seems to grow a lot in Going Commando after seeing him in Ratchet & Clank. This could have simply been an oversight by the developers.
• There is a theory that the Shady Salesman may be Slim Cognito, as the Shady Salesman remains unnamed, and Template:R took the Shady Salesman's place in the reboot.
