The trade menus can be scrolled up and down. Each line shows the item (and quantity), cost (in gold and copper coins), and a button to sell or buy based on what was chosen when the trade portal was tapped. The buy/sell button will be green if the using blockhead has the necessary items in its [[inventory]].

When buying, a blockhead who has insufficient copper coins but more than enough gold coins will have a gold coin automatically exchanged for 100 copper coins and the transaction completed. Purchasing with insufficient gold coins but more than enough copper coins for exchanging will be handled similarly.
