Hey guys and welcome to my guide on the Black Desert marketplace. BDO's marketplace has quite a few quirks that set it apart from the markets and auction houses of other MMO's so let's dive right in.

BDO's market is special
- Hard mins/max
- silent auction, not actual auction
- preorder limited to 1, not guaranteed
- 30 max items registered for sale per person
- 15 minute wait time from an items registration to hitting the market except for pearl items

Tips
- Check the price of items manually before selling, if there are a couple at a really low price and the rest are high then undercut the high priced ones unless they've been sitting for more than a day.
- Don't undercut by large amounts, a couple silver will do.
- Know your market. If you're selling plywood try to remember the normal price of it. Take advantage when prices are high and stockpile if they're too low.
- Don't get hung up on minmaxing every last silver for your items. It's better to sell an armour piece found while grinding for 100k in an hour and put up another one than it is to sell it for 110k in three hours but have to clog your inventory with the rest.
- At the same time don't undersell items by too much. You can easily lose millions of silver just by selling a few stacks of ores/materials for 100 silver less than market price.
- Get a marketplace maid and watch for boss gear or accessories that you need going up. This also allows you to bid on pearl items while grinding. Someone has to get lucky and win them. Eventually that someone could be you.
- Use the horse stacking method to take back large amounts of items.
- Always use a value pack when receiving the money for large ticket items such as ogre rings. The market tax only applies when collecting the money so you can register and sell the item, then apply the value pack to collect your silver.
