Rip Cheato, Paper Mario

In Paper Mario, a shady, seedy character named Rip Cheato sells Mario items for 64 coins in the last room of Toad Town Tunnels. He has a few Star Pieces for sale, but he also has junk items such as Dried Shroom that Mario must pay for first to collect all his finer wares.

The pipe in his room leads to the blue locked house in Toad Town near Tayce T. The pipe makes a convenient secondary entrance/exit to the tunnels.
