Redd

From Animal Crossing City

Redd is an untrustworthy fox that drifts into your town once a week to set up a tent in front of the town hall. Here, Redd sells all sorts of junk to the uninformed visitor at inflated prices. Certain items sold in the tent are considered "special" Redd items. These items also have an HRA bonus.

Redd is in cahoots with Lyle the Insurance Salesman. If you have yet to meet Lyle, Redd will show up on a random day during the week. When you buy insurance from Lyle, however, he will allow you to ask when Redd will come into town. Redd will continue to come on this day as long as you do not change it with Lyle. Every time Lyle appears you can change the day of the week Redd shows up.

The first week Redd shows up may be tricky because he will not send you a password in advance. Before you can shop in his tent you need the weekly password, which changes regularly. Talk to your villagers and one will eventually tell you. However, even after you get in the tent you need to pay a one-time fee of 3,000 bells before Redd allows you to buy anything. After you've paid Redd off and joined his "family" he will send you his new password every week in the mail. Be sure to hang on to this letter. In Animal Crossing: Wild World, you simply cannot buy anything unless you are a member of Redd's 'family', instead of having to pay.
