Market fees

Market fees reduce the amount a seller keeps. Count ingredients, station costs, any Seat tithe and courier charges as well as the advertised sale price.

Route	What the seller keeps	Main limit
Court writ	The displayed silver reward; no Market listing or sale fee	3 deliveries per account per UTC day, shared by Mining, Logging and Herbalism
Crafting writ	The displayed silver reward; subtract ingredients and station fees	3 per account per UTC day, shared by Smithing and Provisioning
Fill an existing buy order	Price less the 5% sale tax and any applicable tithe; no seller listing fee	The order must still need your goods; compare delivery costs and eligible origins
List for silver	Price less a 1% listing fee rounded up, minimum 1 silver; 5% sale tax; and any tithe	Listing lasts 72 hours; the listing fee is lost on cancellation or expiry
Player commission or guild writ	The posted payment less 5% tax	A real buyer or guild budget must fund it; fill the exact request
NPC sale	The shop offer in gold, less your gold costs	Crafting quality's random bonuses do not increase the counter offer

These examples exclude tithe and courier charges:

Sale method	Gross sale (silver)	Net return (silver)
Market listing	100	94
Fill a buy order	100	95
Market listing at the minimum fee	1	0

Sell low-value materials in batches. Check Orders and History before setting a price: the seven-day median records past sales, while an unsold listing does not establish a selling price. Include courier charges when buying from another region.

Currency and material costs

Compare a finished item’s proceeds with what its materials could earn sold raw. Keep silver purchases and gold costs separate.

Rule	Fee charged per
Refining	Batch of up to 100 units of work
Finished item	Each craft

Use full refining batches when there is demand for the output.

Silver exchanges for 8 gold each, up to 300 silver per day; gold cannot buy silver. This is a cash-out option, not a reversible exchange rate for restocking. A first-time recipe bonus is XP, not cash, and a 1,000-silver perk change needs enough extra earnings to recover its cost.

Gold-bought or looted inputs and finished goods can have different trading restrictions. Check the station and Market's eligibility messages before planning a silver sale. Crafting writs accept eligible goods you actually made from gathered, looted or gold-bought ingredients; buying a finished product does not make it your craft.

Favourable daily draws can total 380 silver across three crafting writs:

Example account	Potion request (silver)	Feast request (silver)	Third request	Third reward (silver)	Total (silver)
At least one character has smithed	140	120	Repair Kits	120	380
No character has smithed	140 (Purification)	120	Invisibility	120	380

The ceiling is not guaranteed daily. Requests depend on the draw, and higher-rank goods can cost more to make. Inspect ingredients before accepting. Each profession’s Making money section explains its routes.
