Selling items in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 can seem tricky at first, but it’s a straightforward way to earn cash and improve your gear. Let me break it down step by step.
Table of Contents
Step 1: Find a Trader
Look for an icon on the map that shows a bag with coins. That’s your go-to spot for selling. But don’t stop there—other traders without this icon might also buy items, depending on their cash reserves.
Step 2: Initiate Trade
Walk up to the trader and start a conversation. Choose the trading option when prompted.
Step 3: Access the Sell Menu
At the top of the screen, you’ll see a “Sell” tab. Click on it to view your inventory and see what you can sell.
Step 4: Check Prices Carefully
Not all traders pay the same for every item. For instance, one trader might offer $22 for an item that’s worth $200 elsewhere. Always compare prices before selling.
Step 5: Add Items to Your Basket
Select an item from your inventory and press the corresponding button (e.g., E for keyboard or A for controllers) to add it to the basket. A small icon will appear next to the item, confirming it’s selected.
Step 6: Haggle (Optional)
If you want to squeeze out a bit more money, hold X to haggle. This opens up a negotiation screen where you can try to get a better deal.
Step 7: Close the Deal
Once satisfied with your basket, press X to finalize the trade. You’ll receive money and possibly gain reputation with the trader.
Tips for Selling Smart
Specialized Traders Pay More
Certain traders specialize in specific goods (e.g., blacksmiths for weapons). Selling items to the right trader can maximize your profits.
Keep an Eye on Trader Wealth
If a trader doesn’t have enough money, they won’t be able to buy all your items. Plan accordingly.
Reputation Matters
Selling frequently to the same trader can boost your reputation, which might lead to better deals over time.
Selling isn’t just about clearing out inventory—it’s about strategy. Treat it like bartering at a medieval market. Some traders are stingy; others are fair. Find the right ones, haggle when needed, and always check prices before hitting that final button.
