Gold Market

How the exchange works

All sailors can buy Diamonds. Selling Diamonds requires active Premium. After Premium expires, you can still cancel your existing orders and collect proceeds.

Open Gold Market from the profile menu. Its currency order book is shared across regions. For equipment and other items, visit the local Trading Center.

A buy order reserves Coins and asks for Diamonds at your chosen unit price. A sell order reserves Diamonds and asks for Coins. Compatible orders match at the existing offer’s price, starting with the best price and then the oldest offer.

If a buy completes below your maximum price, the difference is returned to your order’s collectible proceeds. Unfilled quantities remain open until matched, cancelled or expired.

The exchange keeps its window and navigation steady as pages update. Editing a quantity or price preserves the field and its focus during incoming updates. A transaction acknowledgement respects your latest tab choice.

Sale tax

A new Diamond sell order charges 5% seller tax. The rate is recorded when the order is placed. Tax rounds up on total proceeds, with each partial fill charging only the new amount due.

Selling Diamonds for 1,000 Coins gross at 5% returns 950 Coins. The Trading Center handles item sales separately.

Order allowance and collection

The Gold Market allows three active sell orders, or six for an account with Collector entitlement. These allowances are separate from the four/eight item-offer allowance. Orders can last up to 14 days.

Use Collect for completed exchanges and returns after cancellation or expiry. Check unit price and quantity before placing an offer; the displayed history records completed trades rather than a guaranteed future exchange rate.
