In english, any "multi-usable" item can only be acquired by purchasing the final product from the mall. Creation by purchasing the constituent components will not be considered.
I think there's a historical reason for this, but it might need to be re-examined. My guess is that this restriction is in there because you could accidentally ask mafia to acquire a BRICKO gargantuchicken and suddenly be out a large amount of meat. (autoBuyPriceLimit would not stop that purchase either, since it is the sum of a lot of little purchases)
So, deleting the arrowed line fixes this bug, but I think something else is necessary. Perhaps autoBuyPriceLimit=x should stop purchases of many small items that add up to in excess of x, as well as individual items priced more than x?
