Barter just so happens to be in possession of a [[No. 6 Wrench]]. Although [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] have no use for a wrench themselves, [[Björn]] of [[Razor Ridge]] will reveal that he lost his No. 6 Wrench, and will ask the [[Kong]]s for their assistance in finding it. While Barter will be reluctant in parting with the No. 6 Wrench, the Kongs can pry it away from him by purchasing the [[Mirror (DKC3)|Mirror]] that [[Bazaar]] sells for fifty [[Bear Coin]]s, and trading it to Barter in exchange for the wrench.
Barter's original appearance had discrepancies between his artwork and in-game appearance. His artwork shows him in a business attire, including a black hat, leather shoes, pants, and a purple suit. He also has a small mustache. In the game, Barter's mustache was made bigger, and his shirt was changed to striped and white, with a striped green and yellow tie. In the Game Boy Advance version, Barter wears a larger red hat, red pants with a black belt, and blue straps connecting to his belt. He also appears to wear a white, sleeveless shirt.


[[Baffle]] also needs the Mirror to help him solve a puzzle, which will lead the way to a [[Banana Bird Cave]]. Should the Kongs wish to purchase back the Mirror from Barter, they will have to pay him ten Bear Coins for it.
