I'm making a shop, basically, when a player buys a gear, it doesn't subtract the one value, instead, it subtracts all the values for the second one and more.

purchaseItem.OnServerEvent:connect(function(plr,msg)
local newTable = bigCopy(plr)
local MasterData = DataStore2(currentData, plr)

	if msg == "Starter" then
		if newTable.Coins >= itemprices.StarterSword.Value then
		newTable.Coins = newTable.Coins - itemprices.StarterSword.Value
		--  newTable.Starter = true
		--  ItemPrice is 10
		end
	end

	if msg == "Iron" then
		if newTable.Coins >= itemprices.IronSword.Value then   
		newTable.Coins = newTable.Coins - itemprices.IronSword.Value
		--  newTable.IronSword = true
		--  ItemPrice is 100
		end
	end
	MasterData:Set(newTable)
end)

If you are wondering what "if msg == "Starter" then, when a player clicks a gui button, it fires an event and the event being fired looks like "purchaseRemote:FireServer("gearname")

If you have any questions, please feel free to comment

So what exactly does the "msg" value do?

Basically, when the player clicks the Buy button for that gear, it sends a remote event to the server of the name of the gear. Once the event is sent for the message "Iron" it adds the value before it to it so instead of subtracting 100, it subtracts 110

If you are using datastore2 by Kampfkarren, you are not doing it correctly. Please watch tutorial. If datatstore2 is your own module, please provide code for it and bigCopy as well
