Chest Shops
Chest Shops are player-managed containers that allow the purchase and sale of any item gathered from Myrkheim or Midgard, as well as any item crafted from vendors in Origin. Shops can be created on any plot you own or are trusted in through Towns, in either Midgard or The Bazaar.
How to Use Shops
To interact with a shop, left-click the shop or its display sign to bring up the shop UI in chat. The shop UI displays the shop owner, the item on sale, the quantity of items available, the price per item, and whether the shop is buying or selling the listed item. You can also hover over or click the [Item Preview] button to see the item details. This is especially useful for buying items like Runes or other items with random attributes.
To buy or sell, left-click the shop and enter the quantity you wish to exchange in chat. You can also type 'All' to either buy or sell as much as possible based on your balance and/or your inventory.
Note that a 5% transaction fee is applied to the player providing the money in the exchange (the buyer in a Sell-mode shop, and the seller in a Buy-mode shop). This tax does not increase the price of items, it instead subtracts 5% of the money involved in the transaction. For example, if you were to buy an item for 100 coin, the seller would receive 95 coin.
Creating Shops
Although commonly referred to as 'Chest Shops,' shops can be created using either chests or barrels. To create a shop, left-click the container you want to use while holding the item you want to sell in your main hand. Enter the price per item in chat to complete the setup. Shops are created in Sell mode by default. To switch to Buy mode, right-click the container or its display sign and click the [Change] button next to the shop mode.
As you create shops, keep the shop limit and Ranks system in mind, as each rank allows for an additional number of chest shops. Shops are counted across all dimensions. The table below lists each rank and the total number of shops you can create at that rank.
