The Trading post was a trading system released on November 2018 for players to sell almost every tradeable item, or search for item offers by other players. Players got six spaces in which they may have posted offers. Sellers were required to advertise their offers on the trading post in order for buyers to be able to view their offers. This trading system resembled a real-life auction house. The trading post was accessible from any bank.
Players are able to assemble certain item sets to save space. They behave like ordinary items except that they could not be worn or used until they are disassembled. Only the trading post is able to be used to assemble and disassemble sets, and this could be done an unlimited number of times for free. Right-clicking a set and selecting "Drop" did not disassemble it. Players could right-click the trading post and select the "Item sets" option to exchange item sets.
Using the trading post
Buying an item
Players who wished to buy items used the "Search" option on the trading post, and viewed offers placed by those who wished to sell their items. Players could check for the cheapest item, which listed the offers from cheapest to most expensive, from top to bottom. They could also check offers only of players on their world.
Once a player has chosen an item, they could have viewed the following:
- The quantity of the item the players is selling
- The price in which the player is offering
- The name of the player selling the item
- The amount of time that has passed since the player posted the offer
Players could then add the player they wish to contact and buy the item in person.
Selling an item
Players who were wishing to sell their items may have used the "Sell" option on the trading post, and post offers of an item they wished to sell. Players may have set the price to whatever it is they deemed satisfactory, and then confirmed the offer. Once confirmed, the offer was visible to those who search the item on the trading post. It was advised to turn Private messages to "On" in order for potential buyers to contact the sellers.
Item sets interface
To create item sets, players must bring the un-noted components for the set they wished to make to Harald, located at ::TP. Right-click Harald and select 'trade with' to bring up the "Item sets" interface. On this interface, the available item sets are listed. To check the components that make up a given set, players selected the "Value" option on the set from the right-click menu (or through a single left-click). If a player had each of the components necessary in their inventory, they could select the "Buy 1" option, which swapped the components for the set.
Barrows equipment sets can only be made from undamaged armour.
