A shopkeeper (general store) in Minetown suddenly stopped accepting
stuff I bring him. Earlier he paid me for dwarf cloaks, weapons, etc.

it back up. Is he out of money or what? Or is it related to the fact
that I stole from a shopkeeper on another level?

Nothing in Nethack is infinite.

Except perhaps the uncountable, subtle permutations of YASD.

-- killed by a poisonous corpse, because although I had a unihorn with
which to heal the poison, I didn't notice how far I had depleted my hit
points while killing the unicorn .
-- killed by a falling rock trap that I had previously encountered, but
I saw my pet's corpse on there and thought it was a food item to pick
up.
-- killed by a jackal while fainted, because I wanted to crawl a few
squares to the altar and score some holy water while I was praying for
food.
-- killed by choking on a tin of spinach while wearing a full ascension
kit.
-- killed by a newt, while trying to jab it with a rusty orcish dagger
because I didn't want to cast a spell and waste a potential "mild
buzz".
-- killed by a bounced magic missile bolt, because I had stripped off
my SDSM and magicbane in order to go nurse-dancing, but needed to kill
a hostile housecat.
-- and so it goes on...
