The Market Square, also known simply as the market, is the best place to buy or sell items at the best price possible and is where you know you will not get [[scamming | scammed]].

The Market Square, also known simply as the market, is the best place to buy items at discount prices and is where you know you will not get [[scamming | scammed]]. The market is located in Sector 2 and you can find people's second-hand items here. If you cannot get a drop, this is the place to buy a special hunting weapon.  Also, you must be '''level five or higher''' to buy and sell in the market.  This is what the market looks like:

As you can see, there are many items and stands on the market.  You will learn how to search for specific items later.
 
  
== Setting up a Stand ==
 
You can create your own standing by clicking the Setup Stand button at the bottom of the page.  You basically choose how much you want to sell your item for.  There are several ways of determining the price for your item:
 
* look at how much you would buy the item from the game for, and depending on that price, take off a certain amount of [[credits]]
 
* look at how much other people are selling that item, with the amount of trades
 
* decide its fair market value while considering your monetary needs.
 
  
'''Over-pricing items on the market will be seen as storage and get you dis-favoured by the Marketsquare administrator.'''

This is the place you go when you need a new weapon, armor, or you need medicines and the hospital is closed, although, you must be level five or higher to use it.

to get to stand you can click on "View Stand" or you can get directly from a player profile clicking the Profile market.png button there.

There are different criteria that you can fill in. Obviously where it says item name you are looking for (up to 10 characters), but now also has a quick look up (similar to the quick player look up) which completes the name of the item you are looking regardless of the number of characters and only searches for that item.

Where it says item type, you can click it and get a drop down menu, where you can choose one of the following:

  • All
  • Melee Weapon
  • Gun
  • Projectile
  • Armor
  • Misc
  • Special
  • Health
  • Revive
  • Upgrade
  • Part

For item rarity, you can choose:

  • All
  • Normal
  • Different
  • Rare
  • Epic
  • Godlike

For currency, you can choose:

  • Credits
  • Platinum

You can also search for items that can be used within a certain level range by typing in the desired level range in the two textboxes next to 'Item Level'.

after you click on "Search" you'll see a screen (with the items you searched for of course) like this one:

MarketSquare4.png

You have your price and then in parenthesis you have how many trades are left. The items are sorted by category, then by price, starting from the lowest and increasing. If you click on the item, you will be brought to the person's stand. It will show other items (if any) being sold by that person.

Buying

Either from the "Player Market List", from a player's profile, or searching for an item, you get to a stand like this one:

Here you see a little description of the stand, if the player is from your own gang, how much discount he/she offers to you (if any), and a list of all the items, with the prices of each one (including the discount) and how many trades they have. Also shown are the items this players currently has in storage, each player starts out with just 3 storage spots, but more can be added via Platinum.

To get a better position in the market you can donate credits. These donations are non-refundable, and refresh each month (i.e. credits must be donated monthly in order to maintain a good position)

You also have to decide if you want to sell the item for either Credits or Platinum

Stand Storage

If you don't have enough room in your inventory, you can put these on your stand storage, it works like a showcase. Everyone can see what you have put in there, but they can't buy it. It is very handy if you get a gift (from a event or somebody else), but you don't want to throw it away.
