int mall_price(item shop_for )

Returns the current mall price of the given item, ignoring the first five items listed to compensate for stores with limits and min-priced sales. To prevent abuse, this will only perform an actual Mall search once per item per session; subsequent calls for the same item will return a cached value. The cache will be updated after attempts to purchase the item using the CLI or ASH buy() command (even unsuccessful ones), but not in any other conditions, including purchasing with the purchase tab.
CLI Equivalent
