As a general store the place – obviously – sells anything people are willing to purchase.[1]Chet – who owns and operates the business – will obviously sell guns, armor, weapon mods, and other basic items.
However, the main reason the general store manages to stay in business is the Goodsprings' production of Bighornermeat and hide and its sale to traders. As most travelers heading south on in the I-15 just push on towards Primm unless they're in desperate need of supplies.[2]
Layout[]
Outside the front entrance is a Mojave Express dropbox. When you enter the building, there will be two small pillar like bookshelves in the main room, along with some shelves, and a small back room. An armor chest can be found by the bottom of the counter.
Notably, there is a Nuka-Cola Quantum banner hung up in the store. Just where Chet got it or how is never elaborated upon.
Salesman Weekly: Can be purchased for 30 caps or stolen off the shelves.
Behind the scenes[]
The store is one of the few locations in the game to use the ticking clock ambient sound effect.
Goodsprings General Store is a real world location, existing within the town of Goodsprings in Clark County, Nevada. The location was renamed Ghost Town Cafe in 2017, although the welcome sign still reads "Goodsprings General Store".
