== Overview ==
The economy of Ragnarok Online is a complex entity. Players have multiple ways of looking for and trading for items they desire. The following is a compendium of the various means that can be used to seek out items in the game. The most common trading method in the game by far is to exchange an item or items for [[Zeny]], the currency used in the game.

== Zeny ==
:''Main article: [[Zeny]]''

[[Zeny]] is the currency in Ragnarok Online. When things are denoted in "Z," that usually means Zeny, as in "Selling Item X, 100,000 Z!"

=== Making Zeny ===

:''Main article: [[Making Zeny]]''

As [[Zeny]] is the main currency in the game, how rich a player is or how much gear and items they can afford is reliant on how much capital they have in terms of Zeny. Zeny mostly originates from selling items to [[NPC]]s, but selling to older players who already have large amounts of Zeny is usually the main method to attain decent wealth. The basics start with selling items to NPCs and [[Vending]]. Some items that have a high value can be hunted.

== Vending ==
:''Main article: [[Vending]]''

Vending gives [[Merchant]]-type characters the ability to open shops if the character has equipped a [[Pushcart]]. Only items inside the Pushcart Inventory can be sold through Vending, and the maximum price for vended items is 1,000,000,000 [[Zeny]]. Merchants with Level 1 Vending can only vend 3 items at once, but increasing this skill's level will increase the maximum amount of concurrently vended items.

== Buying Store ==
:''Main article: [[Buying Store]]''

A Buying Store (also known as a Purchase Shop) is a player-generated "store" where players can input items they would like to buy, with a specific amount of [[Zeny]] willing to be paid. Players must have one of item they are seeking to purchase already in their inventory. Only certain items can be purchased through a Buying Store:

*Etc. Items
*Non-Brewed Consumable Items

Buying Stores are created via different means based on what [[class]] the player is. Non-Merchant type characters must purchase consumable items while Merchant-types open stores via the skill [[Open Buying Store]] much like a normal shop is opened via using the [[Vending]] skill.

== Chat Rooms ==
While not a system per-se, players may use chatrooms (alt-c) to advertise the buying/selling/auctioning of items. The advantages of this are its simplicity and the ability of every class to use it. Deals can be easily completed by the Trade Window instead of a formal shop or auction. The [[Eden Group]] is a popular place for these chatrooms as it is a frequently accessed central area.

== CP Market Section ==

Use our Control Panel's [https://cp.playragnarokzero.com/market/ Market section] to easily browse through all of the currently open shops and what they're vending / buying.
