Player Shops
Contents
Overview
Player shops are where players can sell a variety of items ranging from gear to mob drops and even collectables. These shops can be accessed from the Marketplace, Promoter NPC, and Housing NPC. To set up your shop, do /shop.
Managing Stock
There is a lot of information to take in when setting up a player shop. The sections below will go over how to add, edit, and remove items from the stock of a player shop.
Adding Stock
In order to add items to the stock, players must do /shop to open up their Shops Menu. Once the menu is open, click the plus sign, which is named Deposit Stock. Players can deposit items from their inventory to their shop by doing this. If a player wants to deposit all of the same item, right click to put all of it in the stock. Items that are bound may not be put in as stock.
Editing Stock
When managing a stock, the player can do /shop or go to the Shop Manager NPC in the Marketplace at Vertick Alley to open up their Shops Menu. From there, click the gold coin called Manage Stock. In this menu, players can set sell prices, enable or disable selling, and withdraw stock. To set sell prices, left click the item desired to set the price for, then click the Sell Price icon. Players can also right click the desired item to set the sell price. From there, enter the price to sell the item. In order to set the sell state, click the Sell State icon in the Manage Item menu.
Removing Stock
To remove items from the shop, head on over to the Manage Stock menu. From there, select the item to withdraw to open up the item’s menu. In this menu there is an icon, which is a minus sign that is called Withdraw. The player must enter how much of the item they want to withdraw in chat. Keep in mind that players may only withdraw the same amount of free inventory space they have. If there isn’t any more stock of a specific item, players may click the Remove Item icon to remove it from their shop.
The Marketplace
The Public Marketplace can be found in Vertick Alley at [3018 55 -7]. Vertick Alley can be found behind the bank at Diagonal Lane. When opening the menu to buy items, players will be able to purchase things for cheapest prices first. This determines who’s item gets sold if more than one person is selling the same item. There is also a Quick Buy NPC, which players can use to find items to purchase from their inventory.
There are a total of eight categories within the Marketplace. They are Building Blocks, Collectables, Materials, Professions, Food, Gear Recipes, Travel, and Gear Items. Each category sells specific items. In the Building Block category, players can buy items like clay blocks or decoration blocks. Collectables include scarves or Choco Hop Cards. In Materials, players can find level 1-80 Mob drops. Under the Professions category, players can purchase items earned from professions like Cooking or Potions and even Herbology. The Food category includes a wide variety of food. Gear recipes can be purchased and will be turned into actual gear pieces when held. However, this section will be removed in the future. When looking under the Travel section, players can buy brooms, broom recipes, and Fire Dust. Gear Items are also sold in the Marketplace ranging from levels 1-80.
Travelling Marketplace
The table below shows all of the travelling Marketplaces found around the map. These NPCs are similar to the ones at the Marketplace in Vertick Alley.
Promoter NPC
Promoter NPCs allow players to promote their shop in various towns like Vertick Alley. If players are interested in setting up a Promoter NPC, they must right click it and purchase it. It costs 100 gold for 7 days. When interacting with other players’ Promoters, there are options to check out their shop or their Housing, depending on their settings that can be managed in the Shops Menu.
Housing Shopkeeper
Player shops can also be found at Housing plots. In order to spawn a Shopkeeper, the player must do /h shopkeeper or /house shopkeeper in the desired location for the NPC. Other players can go to these Shopkeepers as long as the Housing access is on for the public. To purchase from the Shopkeeper, simply click on the NPC and purchase the desired item from the shop.
