- “Greetings! Name's Flimm. Freelance Sales Freak, fully licensed and bonded.”
- —Flimm, Super Paper Mario
Flimm, a self-described Freelance Sales Freak, is a traveling salesman from Super Paper Mario much like Charlieton from the previous game. His Flopside counterpart is the map-selling Flamm, and together, their names are derived from the word "flimflam", which means "a swindle". Flimm sells many different items including ones not found in stores, and hard to find cards such as the Thwomp Catch Card. He is found on the Flipside floor B1. He also may appear in the Flipside and Flopside Pit of 100 Trials at every 10th room, with a 30% chance each time. In Flipside B1 only, Flimm's prices are 75% of what they would normally be at most shops. In the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials, he uses the standard shop prices. In the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials, Flimm will occasionally sell things for double their normal price.
Merchandise[edit]
Flimm will randomly chose a set of 8 items from the lists below. His inventory will change each time you encounter him in a Pit of 100 Trials, or in Flipside B1, each time you enter any chapter.

Quotes[edit]
- "Greetings! Name's Flimm. Freelance Sales Freak, owner and proprietor of this shirt."
- "I sell stuff that's so hard to find, not even I can find it. Yeah, you heard me right."
- "So... Look then BUY!"
- "Oh, boy. That is a fine eye you have there. Do you have a master's in buying stuff?"
- "That's a (selected item name)! And it's yours for only (selected item price) coins! Selling madness! Deal?"
- "You must be a collector. I'm 100 percent serious. You must buy stuff for a living."
- "That's a (selected Catch Card name) Card! An original! Mint! And it's yours for only (selected Catch Card price) coins! Deal?"
- "Wow. Talk about a win for you. You're going to love that li'l baby. LOVE it."
- "So what are we talking here, no sale?! None whatsoever?! Color me flummoxed."
- "So...you want nothing?! Color me flustered."
- "Well, inventory changes like THAT! Yeah, that quick. So come back soon."
- "I've got bundles of bargains. ...But you've got no cash! Selling requires cash."
