Im trying to do a buy event from my shop but i keep getting an error when i try to add an item from data (Name of my leaderstat) to the player. If you could help me, i would apprciate it.

Here is the error: ServerScriptService.Buy/Sell Manager:43: attempt to perform arithmetic (add) on nil and string - Server - Buy/Sell Manager:43.

here is the script:

BuyShopEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, ShopItemPrice, ItemToGet, QuantityToGet)

	if player.Data.Coins.Value >= ShopItemPrice.Value then
		player.Data.Coins.Value -= ShopItemPrice.Value
		player.Data[ItemToGet].Value = ItemToGet.Value +QuantityToGet

	end
end)

BuyButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local ShopItemPrice = WoodFrame.PriceValue
local ItemToGet = “Wood”
local QuantityToGet = “2”
BuyShopEvent:FireServer(ShopItemPrice, ItemToGet, QuantityToGet)
end)

Remove the .Value from ItemToGet.Value

try this:

player.Data[ItemToGet].Value = player.Data[ItemToGet].Value + QuantityToGet

there is one thing, you can’t add a String to a number, so i just made it that it adds the player data to QuantityToGet.
