The Auction House is a method through which players can trade goods for Currency in Blockgame, much like the The Bazaar. You can access this from anywhere at any time and sell anything you find out in the world. Use this to snag great deals, undercut rivals, and amass great wealth. While setting up an item to sell, you will have to pay a small fee depending on your set price. You can often find players bartering or asking for specific items in the in-game chat, which will often result in that item being put up on the auction house.

How to use The Auction House

When you wish to sell an item on the Auction House, simply have the item in your hand, then use the required command along with the desired selling price to post it. Buying items can be done either by searching for the specific resource or by conducting a general search of what is currently available on the market. If you attempt to buy an item without having enough funds, you will receive a prompt indicating that more money is needed in your bank. Any items that do not sell within a 30-day limit or are canceled by the player will be placed in the collections bin to be retrieved.

All Transactions are funded with the Players Bank Account and cannot be withdrawn to your inventory.

GUI (graphical user interface)

The Auction House GUI consists of 6 rows and 9 columns. The first 5 rows showcase various items available for purchase from other players, while the last, 6th row serves as your navigation menu. The various icons are neatly explained below.

Rank System Influence

As you progress in Blockgame and advance through player Ranks, the number of items you can sell will increase accordingly. Initially, players will have the ability to conduct 8 sales at once, starting at the Nomad rank. With each subsequent rank, the number of items that can be sold increases by 2, culminating in a maximum of 50 sales when the rank of Goblin King is achieved. When you reach the maximum sales limit at your current rank, a prompt will notify you that you have reached your current maximum sales capacity.
