About this Mod

This Minecraft mod that takes the Wandering Trader concept from one of SimplySarc's suggestion videos and implements it.

Whenever a player dropped item despawns/gets destroyed, the stacks get internally added to a list and have a chance to show up next time when trading with a Wandering Trader.

Of course, you can legitimately trade your items back only once ;)
