Crazy Redd's

Crazy Redd's, also known as the Black Market, is a store run by Redd, a fox who has a shifty nature. The shop contains items that can also be bought from Tom Nook in his store, but for a higher price. Redd as well has items sold exclusively by Redd which cannot be found anywhere else. The store restocks once every week.

The shop also sells paintings which can be forgeries - these can be identified by Blathers, or when you try to sell one to Tom Nook. The shop is the only place (except for two paintings at Nook's) that sells paintings, but due to their unpredictable nature and high cost, there is a risk. There IS a way to try to "guess" if a painting is real or fake before trying to buy it. Ask Redd for the painting, and if he says "paws and knees", "artist's eye", or if he expresses ANY emotion (mischief, yellow glint in the eye, heart, etc.), then it is most likely fake.

In Animal Crossing
In, Crazy Redd's tent appears at random times during the year. To enter, the player will receive a letter signed by Redd in advance, telling the player when the shop will appear. To find the exact place where the shop is, ask Copper at the Police Station. Copper will tell you the square on the map where Crazy Redd's tent is located. Unlike in later games, Redd does not sell Forged Paintings.

In Wild World
In, the shop appears once a week outside Town Hall. The player will be sent a letter containing a password (see Redd's Passwords) or, if the shop has not been visited, given a password by a villager in the town. When signing up for insurance with Lyle, the player will be asked about Redd and given days of the week as answers. The day chosen will be the day the shop appears. Lyle also sells insurance for forged paintings, which suggests these paintings are then returned to Crazy Redd's to be sold once again.

Exclusive items of furniture only found at Crazy Redd's are worth 151 points each, while paintings (that are not forgeries) are worth 412 points by the Happy Room Academy.

Location in the City in City Folk
In, Crazy Redd's appears as a small building in the city to the left down what villagers call a "dark alley". It is open from 10:00 AM to 1:00 AM. No one is allowed inside without an invitation, which must be given to the player by a villager in their town, or another playable character who has been given an invite by Redd himself. However there is a fee to even get your foot through his thresh-hold. It cost 3,000 bells to even get in, considering you have an invitation.

Animal Crossing: The Movie
In ''Animal Crossing: The Movie, Crazy Redd's store is set up during the Fireworks Show. However, unlike the games, Redd is selling his goods outside of his tent, while his supplies are all hiding inside. Redd tricks Yu and Alfonso into purchasing a fake Golden Slingshot. Claiming that the fake Slingshot was rare, he actually had an entire box filled with the slingshots hidden inside his tent.''

Paintings
When buying paintings from Crazy Redd's, there is always chance that the painting is a forgery. This is found out when a player tries to donate or sell the item. Nook or Blathers (which ever the case may be) points it out. In the case of a forgery, the selling price is 10 bells and its HRA points are lower than if it were the original painting. However, not all paintings from Redd's are forged.

Passwords
These passwords are for Animal Crossing: Wild World only, because Redd's store does not require passwords in .
