Trading: The Four Systems

Trade

Veylor has four trading systems. Short version before we get into details:

Plus /trade <player> for direct hand‑to‑hand swapping.

Server Market

/market buys and sells instantly, in stacks of 1 to 64. /market sellall empties your inventory of anything that matches the item in your hand — /market lock protects individual items from that.

Prices are alive: When an item is sold in massive quantities, its sell price drops in stages (‑10 % down to a maximum of ‑60 %) and recovers once the flood subsides. The item description shows the current discount with 📉. Those with patience sell after the recovery — those without take the discount.

/market rebuy buys back your last sale at the same price — the rescue for an accidentally sold diamond sword.

The market also contains water and coral items as well as dry and wet sponges. Not every listed item can be sold to the server: check the buy and sell options in the menu instead of inferring a sell price from the buy offer.

Auction House

/ah sell <price> lists the item in your hand: 1 % listing fee, 7‑day duration, default 5 auctions running simultaneously. The buy‑out price is binding.

Everything else — bundles, descriptions, expired auctions — is covered under Auction House.

Direct Trade

/trade <player> opens a shared window after both parties accept: nine item slots per page plus coins. Only when both click Ready does a 3‑second countdown start — last‑second changes no longer apply. For remote trading without meeting, there’s Cash on Delivery by Mail.

Finding the Best Price

Four tools search all systems at once: /marktsuche, /preisalarm, /itemwert and /itempricechart. How they work together — and what the shop teleport costs — is explained under Finding Prices.

Protecting Tools from the Sellall Shortcut

/market sellall does not sell tools or weapons from your hand. This also includes unnamed regular pickaxes, axes, swords, fishing rods and similar utility items. If you deliberately want to sell such an item, choose the sale in the market menu.

Normal resources and mob drops keep their existing sell rules. Prices and sell options in the catalog are not changed by this protection. For other valuable items you can still use /market lock. This shortcut protection is not the same as a blanket ban on all intentional sales in the market menu or via a trader axe.
