What are Trading Posts?
Trading posts are cross-realm trading institutes officially admitted by the Great Council. It's the only place where players may trade with each other. Players may visit a trading post at any space station to purchase items posted by other players. Of course, you can also sell tradable items that are not bound to you there.
Buying or selling, mind that Gala is the default currency for both.
How to Unlock Trading Posts?
Trading posts are unlocked when a player completes the quest in Chapter 6: [Main] Blueray II
How to Purchase Items?
Enter a trading post at any space station, then select the category of the item you want to purchase. All items in the selected category will be listed on the right side. You can add filters such as tech level, rank, and size.
 
 
Select an item and tap it again to open the purchase panel. You can inspect the details and select the quantity you want to buy here. The best prices window shows statistics of the currently posted items, their prices, and quantity under each price.
When you purchase more than 1 item, the system will automatically pick the cheapest ones first. So you don't need to worry too much about that because you are always buying at the lowest price available.
Purchased items will be transported to your warehouse immediately. Purchased items cannot be traded again until the cooldown is over. Items on a trading cooldown can be used or equipped normally. The base cooldown is 2 hours. If you buy items from the same player repeatedly, the cooldown will become longer.
How to Sell Items?
Players can manage posted items anytime in the Sell tab. Each player may post up to 8 items.
To post an item, players need to select the category, quantity, and unit price. In order to fight speculation, the Great Council has limited the unit price between 50% to 150% of the daily recommended price. The recommended price is based on the most recent prices and fluctuates every day.
You also need to set a duration for the items you sell. The service fee may vary depending on the duration you choose.
When an item is sold, a notification mail will be sent to you no matter where you are. At the same item, you will receive the payment by mail.
