Buying on the site is being switched on carefully, a piece at a time. Everything is available in-world at the Emporium today, and delivery is handled by the bot. Members save on the whole range.
Watch it work
The product tutorial, start to finish.
Read it written up on the forum — the same walkthrough, with the numbers, and somewhere to ask.
Trade from the website and you can buy and sell in the middle of a field with nothing held in escrow; trade from the HUD version and it is tied to whichever character you are logged in as. The market seeds every system item and holds ten thousand of each, so prices move as people buy.
Your discount comes from your profession and your Charisma. A merchant with high Charisma buys meaningfully cheaper and sells for more.
Know the spread. It offers you around 0.75x an item's value and sells it on at around 2x. That gap is why selling raw materials is the worst thing you can do with them — take wood down through planks and into tools first, because the multiplier compounds at every stage. It is also the room that vendors on your own land exist to trade in.
Merchants get a mini-game on top: resupply at your own market for trade supplies and CXP, then barter at other people's to turn those supplies into coin. Your first market of the day pays a 40% bonus, and every play knocks 10% off that market for whoever comes next — so the market list on the website is worth reading before you set out.
The CXP and platinum stores now live inside it.
