For a list of items by trading category, see Category:Trade categories.

It is a lens through which Humanity has quantificated the values of everything, as everything can be expressed through it - everything has a price.

Ferryman E, on currency

Traders, merchants or vendors are NPCs who trade items with the player.

Trading interface

The trading interface
  • You can't see the exact value of your trade, but the Refuses/Accepts bar should give you a rough idea
  • Alt-click or double-click items to quickly send them to trade
  • Shift-click items to split stacks
  • Reset button sends requested and offered items back
  • Auto button uses available currency items to equalize the trade
  • Trade button completes the trade
  • Offered items overlaid with X won't be accepted by the trader

Prices

Reason given: 1.2.0.15 changes

The price modifier for items you purchase usually starts at 200% and can be lowered with your mercantile skill. Some traders may also offer you better deals than others.

Purchasing price is reduced by 1% (from the starting 200%) per point of mercantile skill. There's a hard cap that prevents items from being sold for less than 115% of their base cost[1].

Item prices when selling are affected only by the difficulty modifier and mercantile skill doesn't affect how much merchants are willing to pay for your items.

Currency is always valued at its base value, without any price modifiers. Traders usually only accept local currencies in trade.

Currency Value Accepted in
Icon SGS Credits 10 South Gate Station (local currency)
Icon Stygian Coin (Charons) 30 Everywhere in South Underrail
Icon United Stations Dollar 50 United Stations and Protectorate bases
Icon Zlatortiya 15 Nowhere in South Underrail, but Kokoschka exchanges it to stygian coins and can be used in Trgomat

Restocking

Most merchant stores are restocked every 90 minutes of ingame time. But you can use "+" button to speed it up! On its max value you get about x3 reduction in real waiting time for ALL the ingame timers. That effectively turns an interval for merchants' restock to 30 minutes.

Items bought

Traders usually buy only certain types of items, and only in limited amounts. Merchants also have limited amount of money available. These limits reset when their inventory is restocked.

Salesman feat increases the amount of items you can sell and Major Supplier feat increases the amount of money that merchants are willing to spend buying from you.

Merchandise shipments

All merchants start with an initial merchandise shipment, but may acquire new shipments (or lose access to some shipments) during the game to change their store inventory. New shipments with higher level items or entirely new items will be available in some stores based on game progression (e.g. TNT Charges in SGS armory after the railroad blockade is cleared) and special merchandise shipments are available to players who invest in mercantile skill.

Special merchandise

As of version 1.0.2.2, certain merchants have special merchandise shipments available to characters with mercantile skill. See Category: Special merchants for a list of these merchants.

Special merchandise includes more and better quality components and equipment. Special merchandise comes in multiple tiers with increasing skill requirements each. Special merchandise may even include unique items that cannot be gained otherwise.
