“	If you carry goods to far away places, or places where they are rare, you'll make quite a bit more. Always check the market price and head into the direction of highest profit, but keep the travel times in mind.	„
—Goblin Trade Helper

Trade is the basic activity of Commerce. It consists of buying goods and taking them from point A to point B in order to make a profit.

In Uladh and Belvast, the Goblin Trade Helper is responsible for Trading. In Iria, members of the Iria Commerce Association will fullfill this role.

Each trade post has a different stock of goods. Having a good Merchant Rating with the town the Trading Post is in will allow the player to buy pricier goods from the trader, which will usually result in a bigger profit.

Details

Goods Information

The left side of the interface shows the trade goods that are for sale. Each trade good window displays the following information:

• Item's image
• Item's name
• Cost per unit
• Weight of the item

Hovering the game's pointer over the individual items will also give you more information:

• Max quantity per slot
• Weight per unit
• Current stock of the server
• Original price
• Current price (after discounts, if there are any)
• Limit mentions

Each Trading Post has one limited trade good. Items labeled as "Limited Items" will restock once every two hours real-time.

Trade Information

• The middle window shows the trade information.
• The top portion shows the current price for the good selected in various towns of Erinn.
• A red or blue number after the town name shows how much profit or loss, respectively, you can expect when selling the item in that town.
  • A black number represents no change in price between the two towns.
• These prices will fluctuate every time a restock occurs.
• Click on the trade good you would like to learn about in the left window to change the trading information in the middle.

Buying

Trade goods are held in stacks. Each trade good will have a different maximum number of items that can be placed in a stack.
The right window shows the total Weight as well as the number of slots of your chosen transportation method. This will affect the number of goods you can take at once.

• Trade goods will be stacked in the square slots. Each slot can only carry one type of trade good up to the maximum size stack.
  • E.g. You wish to purchase Mini Dressing Tables (weight 20, maximum stack 10) and carry them with a Backpack, you would only be able to purchase twenty (weight 400) and the other two available squares would remain empty. It's up to each individual trader to maximize their available space and weight in order to maximize profits.

Place your order with the merchant in the bottom center portion of the window.

• Items can run out of stock if they are in high demand and bought frequently by other players.
  • Stocks remains consistent per channel.
  • Normal items will restock every five minutes real-time. The amount each item restocks is proportional to the total amount of goods bought since the last restock.
• The order window displays the following information:
  • Number of items to purchase/maximum number of stackable items.
  • Total cost of your order, in Seasonal Ducats.
  • Cost of one item, in Seasonal Ducats.
  • The weight of one unit of the selected trade good.
• Once you are satisfied with the order, click the "Buy" button to purchase the goods.

After starting Commerce, you can check the current Market Price for the trade goods you have by clicking on the INFO button at the top right corner of the screen, or by bringing up your inventory.

Selling

Letters of Guarantee must have been used before interacting with the trader.

• To sell trade goods to the merchant, select the item in the transport window and click the "Sell" button.
  • The amount to be sold will default to all of the items in the player's cargo, but this can be adjusted.
  • You can sell a portion of your goods, stock on a different item, and move along to another trade post for more profit.
• You may not sell items back to the trade post that you purchased them at.

Issues

• There is a glitch where sometimes after talking to the Trade Helper, you will be unable to move. Logging out and back in will fix this, although the penalty still applies.
