Ashes of Creation How to Sell Items
Selling items in Ashes of Creation happens through node-based marketplaces, not a global auction house. Each node runs its own local market, and early access players can sell gear, materials, and junk once they meet a few simple requirements.
How Selling Works in Early Access
Selling is done through local marketplaces connected to specific nodes. You must reach level 10 before you can list anything. Once you’re ready, head to a town or settlement with a Market Manager NPC.
Open the marketplace, switch to the Sell tab, and you’ll see your inventory items that qualify for listing. Choose what to sell, set your price, and confirm. The node automatically applies a tax to each sale, and that rate depends on the node’s leadership and level.
Marketplaces are local only. Items listed in one node cannot be seen or purchased from another. Each settlement runs its own economy, so market prices can vary a lot depending on where you sell.
Other Selling Options
You don’t have to use the marketplace for every transaction. There are other ways to make gold or offload extra items.
NPC vendors buy junk and Glint for quick gold
Player-to-player trades let you exchange items directly without node taxes
Player stalls are now active in early access and tied to node marketplaces. You can set up your own shop, though buyers must browse stalls individually for now. A global search feature and better cross-node access are planned for future updates
Personal shops and certificates for advertising your sales are planned for later phases of the economy system
Tips for Selling
Reach level 10 first or the Sell option won’t appear
Check market prices before posting to avoid underselling valuable gear
Remember, each node has its own listings and prices
Use NPC vendors for junk and overflow materials
Watch for node upgrades, since higher node levels improve marketplace systems
Player stalls are live now but still being updated based on community feedback
Keep in mind that early access features can change, and progress wipes are expected
Final Blurb
Selling in Ashes of Creation happens through node marketplaces. Once you hit level 10, find a Market Manager and list your items locally. Player stalls are available now for setting up your own shop, though they’re still being refined. As the economy grows, expect more selling tools and trading systems, but for now, focus on local sales and vendor trades to keep your bags clear and your wallet growing.
