Apocalypse World / Re: On the barter rule...

Okay, thanks to you both. I'm committed to playing the RAW for the first campaign, and this was the only rule that troubled me, although I did notice that it was optional.
I'm still on the fence about it, since on the one hand it seems like offering one Barter is enough scratch to make most people do most things, and so isn't even a manipulate move, and on the other hand if it is really a question whether one Barter is quite enough, then it does require a manipulate move and isn't automatic. In other words, it just depends on the fiction.
First game is tonight. I'm so nervous!
