The following log shows me purchasing the arrow they are buying from MT
level 4:

    This is the room where the bowyer makes and sells her bows.
Most of the room is clean, but the recent demand for bows has 
been taxing. As the bowyer is forced to work harder and harder,
she is slowly losing the battle with neatness.  A few random 
scraps of wood have been shoved into corners where they are 
supposed to be out of sight.
    A sign tells the prices of different types of bows.
    The only obvious exit is west.
 A very busy bowyer
|||[HP:230][EP:170]||| 
l sign
 You may order any of these bows:
bow             55
longbow         135
recurve bow     175
We hope your bow serves you well!

    This room is much more functional and less fancy than
the entry room.  The furniture consists of a single table
and chair.  Wood shavings cover the floor.  The closest
thing to a decoration is a wrinkled sign.
    The only obvious exit is east.
 A fletcher of Minas Tirith
|||[HP:230][EP:170]||| 
l sign
You may order any of these arrows:
arrow           10
barbed          27
silver          45
quiver          30
    We apologize for the high prices, but with the War there is
a very high demand for arrows now.

The following shows me selling 1 arrow for the purpose of this law report
in order to show that a profit can be made from buying and selling 
these in large amounts, creating a gold bug:
 
 
 
|||[HP:230][EP:177]||| You open the east door.
Jarain and Sons(w)
 Jarain, the weaponsmith
 A trash can
You close the west door.
|||[HP:230][EP:177]||| Do: Commands completed.
|||[HP:230][EP:177]||| 
sell arrow
a simple arrow : You get 12 gold.
Jarain tells you: Thanks for your business!  Please come again.
|||[HP:230][EP:177]||| 
 
 
As you can see, you can purchase huge amounts of arrows for profit and
continually sell them in the pelargir weapon shops for gold, 
something most likely not meant to occur.
