He's probably in his late 60s, early 70s at the latest. His head is completely bald so his long, grey beard and mustache is the only hair on his head. He's dressed in a leather jacket with chains and buckles all over it. It's a really cringeworthy 'post-apoc' outfit but he has a genuine smile on his face.
"With deals these good, you think the world is ending, HAW HAW!" He slaps his legs. "Ah. Wish I could laugh as well as Mr. Salt. Oh well. What's your business, lass? Name's Neal."
"I'm a Cleaner." You clear your throat. "Mind showing me the goods?"
"Ah! Of course, of course." Neal reaches under the counter to flick a switch. The shelves switch from the boring knickknacks to a whole suite of various goodies. Time to see what you want to buy.
"Don't be a stranger! I always love having one of your types coming around here, buyin' stuff."
