Sales Guide

If you want to earn some kamas, there are different ways that you can sell your items on Dofus. The possibilities are as follows:

=Selling to Players= Whether you crafted them or got them as a drop, items will be one of your main sources of revenue on Dofus. Of course, many NPCs (all those who have a Buy/Sell option in their menu) will accept the items you want to get rid of, but at ridiculously low (fixed) prices (see "Sell to NPCs" hereunder). If your item can be of interest to other players, you'll be better off trying to sell to fellow adventurers. This can be done: The different methods are further described below.
 * as a direct sale (both player are at the same coordinates and exchange theire goods on the screen)
 * using a NPC seller as a go-between (Sellrooms), or
 * offering your goods for sale when you are off-line (Merchant mode)

Direct sales
Trading your items in real time can be time-consuming, but it is also the most interactive and cost-effective way of trading (no fees). If offers the ability of bargaining, as well as the possibility to exchange item(s) for other items and/or kamas.

Advertising your sales
So, you've decided to sell your valuable items? How will you find a buyer? You can:
 * use the general channel to advertise your sales to passer-bys
 * use the covered market, a dedicated room for direct trading
 * use the trading channel

Open air sales
Simply use the General channel to advertise your sales and hope a passer-by will be interested in buying. To maximize your sales opportunities, you can either go where the greatest number pass by (the Zaaps, in particular, that of Astrub at [4,-19]). Due to flooding issues, however, Ankama now have restricted the General channel in some crowded places and implemented a waiting time between two messages.

The covered market
Avalaible at [4,-19] (next to the Astrub Zaap), the covered market "allows players who want to auction their item to gather in one provided place without disturbing the other players". Good idea, but no success to this date.

The Trading channel
Implemented in release 1.16.2, the Trading channel is probably the best way to advertise your sales, as you can potentially reach all players that are on line. Any player can deactivate the channel to avoid tradung messages to be displayed on their screens, though. Tip: Use the short cut "SHIFT + click on an item" to make the item name appear in your message. Other players can then click on the link in your message to display the auctioned item, including all its characterstics (good to check the stats of an item).

==Selling via a NPC : the Sellrooms You don't want to lose time looking for buyers? For a fixed feed (varying locally - see the Sellrooms page), offer your items for sale at a Sellroom and go on with your other activities.

Selling off-line: The Merchant Mode
When going off-line, you can choose to set your character in Merchant mode. The items you selected will be offered for sale to any player looking at your shop, at the price you specified. The kamas for items bought at your shop will be automatically credited to your bank account. For details, see the Merchant page.

=Selling to NPCs= You've just trained your profession and crafted a bunch of worthless items? Or you dropped useless resources from monsters? Sell them to any NPC with a Buy/sell option in their menu. The price will depend basically on the number of resources used to craft the item, or on its rarity in case of a drop. A typical sale after crafting a full inventory will earn you like 1,000-1,500 kamas, depending on your carrying capacity and on the items.
