To my king, the shop only displays weapons, shields, backpacks, rings.  All the head, body, arm, and leg armor is missing.  If another hero goes to the shop, they see everything.  Armor can be bought by another hero, and traded to my king.  But none of it shows up in the king's screen to equip the armor.  I can mail in a savegame or something.

My Sov can't see/buy and + to movement items which is annoying because I love the Organized bonus.  I also can't trade these items to him.  Well.....I can trade them to him, but they don't show in inventory until I trade them back grrrr
