Spoiler. How to get the money for Reimu's present: Marisa- "borrow" it from someone Alice - Might be from her saving Suika- with her power to "gather" thing.
It's obvious why patchy isn't smiling. It is because she is missing an oh so important flag event with Marisa right now and Sakuya also took her away from her computer during important neet escapades.
Despite that Fanon says, Marisa's mainly interested in "borrowing" books or magical stuff, in terms of cash, she isn't like that (being to the point if someone gets her to do something via her shop, she won't accept payment if she fails to do the task)
Edit: then again this Marisa has been known to go after other things (such as presents)

That only makes her like the majority of high-level RPG players, though - screw the common drops and money; Money doesn't buy the rare stuff that are the only things that actually matter at that level of play.
If you have epic gear, however, she's absolutely going to ninja your drops.
