When do I play the Merchant, and do I still get 1 gold if I decline or fail?
A few players agree on timing; the gold question rests on their reading of the card, with no official ruling.

Play it on your turn to sell, after the bidding, when you choose your potion and guarantee. No official ruling covers the 1 gold. The community reads it as paid for taking the sale first even if your guarantee fails, but not if you decline the action.
