"I threw a silver tarsk, to the proprietor of the paga tavern, and took in return one of the huge bottles of paga, of the sort put in the pouring sling."

"...a small bottle of Ka-la-na wine, in a wicker basket, which they had permitted us, swallow by swallow to share. I had never tasted so rich and delicate a wine on Earth, and yet here, on this world, it costs only a copper tarn disk and was so cheap, and plentiful, that it might be given even to a female slave. I remembered each of the four swallows which I had had. I tasted them even still, with the meat and bread which I had eaten. It was the first Gorean fermented beverage which I had tasted. It is said that Ka-la-na has an unusual effect on a female."

" 'These I give to you, Champion,' said the boy, trying to push into my hands the three tarn disks of silver.
'Save them,' said I, 'for your sister's dowry in her companionship.'
'With what then,' asked he, 'have you been paid?'
'With sport,' I said.
'My thanks, Fighter,' said the girl.
'My thanks, too, Champion,' said the boy who held her.
I bowed my head.
'Boy!' cried the Forkbeard. The boy looked at him. The Forkbeard threw him a golden tarn disk. 'Buy a bosk and sacrifice it,' said the Forkbeard. 'Let there be much feasting on the farms of the Inlet of Green Cliffs!' "

--Streets of Tor--
"He came to me, bent over, tattered, swarthy, grinning up at me, the verrskin bag over his shoulder, the brass cups, a dozen of them, attached to shoulder straps and his belt, rattling and clinking. His shoulder on the left was damp from the bag. There wre sweat marks on his torn shirt, under the straps. One of the brass cups he unhooked from his belt. Without removing the bag from his shoulder he filled the cup. .... The water flowed into the cup between a tiny vent-and-spigot device, which wastes little water, by reducing spillage, which was tied in and waxed into a hole in the front left foreleg of the verrskin. The skins are carefully stripped and any rents are sewed up, the seams coated with wax. When the whole skin is thoroughly cleaned of filth and hair, straps are fastened to it, so that it might be conveniently carried on the shoulders, or over the back, the same straps serving, wth adjustment, for either mode of support. The cup was dirty.
I took the water and gave the man a copper tarsk."

--At the Fair of En'Kara--
"I would stay in one of the public tents tonight. For five copper tarsks one may rent furs and a place in the tent. It is expenseive, but it is, after all, En'Kara and the time of the fair. In such tents it is not unusual for peasants to lie crowded, side by side, with captains and merchants. During En'Kara, at the Fair, many of the distinctions among men and castes are forgotten."

--At the Fair of En'Kara-in a public kittchen tent--
" 'Soup! Soup!" called a man.
'Soup!' I called, raising my hand. I purchased from him, for a copper tarsk, a bowl of soup, thick with shreds of hot bosk and porous chunks of boiled sul."

"The price for the second cup, in the tavern of Pembe, was only a tarks bit. I paid it to the paga attendant, who collected it at the table. The girls in Pembe's tavern, as in many taverns, are not permitted to touch coins. Evelyn, of course, who had come with the higher price of the first cup, was mine until I chose to leave the tavern or in some other way release her."

" 'Paga!' called the standing man. 'Paga!' A blonde girl, nude, with a string of pearls wound about her steel collar, ran to the table and, from the bronze vessel, on its strap, about her shoulder, poured paga into the goblet before the seated man. The fellow who stood by the table, scarcely noticing the girl, placed a tarsk-bit in her mouth, and she fled back to the counter where, under the eye of a paga attendant, she spit the coin into a copper bowl."

Book 15, Rogue of Gor, page 77

"Behind the desk, on the wall, there was posted a list of prices. They were quite high. I did not think that those were normal prices. If they were, I did not see how the inn could manage to be competitive. I struck the keeper's desk twice more. There was a tharlarion-oil lamp hanging on three chains from the ceiling, to my right, above the desk. Sample items from the list were as follows:
Bread and Paga..................2 C.T.
Other Food......................3-5 C.T.
Lodging.............................10 C.T.
Blankets (2).........................2 C.T.
Bath......................................1 C.T.
Bath girl................................2 C.T.
Sponge, oil and strigil..........1 C.T.
Girl for the night...................5 C.T.
Tarn, Meat and Cot.............5 C.T.
T., Greens and Stable.........2 C.T.
A comment, or two, might be in order on this list of prices. First, it will be noted that they are not typical. In many inns, depending on the season, to be sure, and the readiness of the keeper to negotiate, one can stay for as little as two or three copper tarsks a day, everything included, within reason, of course, subject to some restraint with respect to paga, and such. Also, the bath girl, and the sponge, oil and strigil, in most establishments, come with the price of the bath itself. The prices on the list on the wall seemed excessive, perhaps to a factor of five or more. The prices, of course, were in terms of copper tarsks. For purposes of comparison, in many paga taverns, one may have paga and food, and a girl for the alcove, if one wants, for a single copper tarsk. Dancers, to be sure, sometimes cost two."
