Exchange

An Exchange is a terminal or vendor type facility available at various locations throughout the galaxy, typically at major space stations, that allows players to sell and buy items to and from other players.

Items are placed from the inventory into the Exchange for sale. Once a price in Energy Credits is selected, the item is listed. Other players can then search for the item using keywords or browse for the item through categories, and purchase the item. The credits are immediately transferred when an item is sold and a notification sent to the seller via the in game mail system.

Note that Character or Account Bound items, as well as Tier 6 Ship Coupons cannot be sold in the Exchange.

Items placed for sale on the exchange remain up for a maximum of one week, at which point they are mailed back to the seller. The player must then visit a mail terminal at any social hub (i.e. Earth Spacedock) to reclaim their delisted items. The maximum number of auctions that a player can have active on the Exchange at any given time is 40 per character. This limit is reduced by one for every returned auction email that is in the player’s mailbox. There is no cost to place items on the exchange.

Maximum price of each item on the exchange is 1,500,000,000 Energy Credits. It is not possible to post item for sale above the exchange EC limit.
