The Bazaar

The Bazaar is a zone off of the Plane of Knowledge, Shadow Haven, and The Nexus. If you want to buy or sell something, this is the place to do it. You can buy horses here from the vendors in the stable, do your banking, tradeskill in one of the many available spots. Some useful commands are:


 * /barter to search for items being sought for
 * /bazaar to search for items being sold
 * /buyer to set yourself up as a Buyer
 * /trader to set yourself up as a Seller

Autonomous Brokering
Autonomous Brokering is a system which allows you to sell items while off-line. It also includes being able to purchase items from anywhere in Norrath.

Autonomous Brokering will be introduced with the Rain of Fear expansion.

The Art of the Deal

Players have long requested the ability to sell items while they are offline, and with EverQuest: Rain of Fear this will become a reality!

Brokering while offline couldn't be simpler with this feature upgrade! Simply set up your broker as you normally would, making sure to have correct pricing on all of your selections, and then click on the new button in the trader interface labeled "offline mode." If you prefer to use command lines, we've got you covered; the command "/offlinemode" will have the same effect.

Using this button (or command) will log you out of EverQuest, but your trader will remain active. Any sales made during this time will work normally, and you'll be happy to log back in and find freshly delivered piles of platinum on your character!

We're not stopping at sales though; EverQuest: Rain of Fear also includes a number of improvements on the purchasing side! For the first time ever, players will not need to be in the Bazaar to see what items are available for sale (and at what price). Instead the /bazaar command will be usable anywhere in Norrath and display the items for sale in the bazaar as normal.

In addition to the traditional method of purchase directly from a seller, those who have Rain of Fear will also be able to buy items from anywhere in Norrath! Simply search for an item as you normally would using the bazaar menu, then click on the item you'd like to buy. After purchase, two delivery options will be available: delivery to the nearest parcel vendor (available for a modest fee* in game coins), or expedited delivery (via our new Expedited Delivery Vouchers** available in the Marketplace) which delivers the item straight to your cursor.

All in all, commerce in Norrath is about to receive a huge update!

* Currently the fees for parcel delivery in our Beta Test are set at 10% of the cost of the item being purchased, but this is subject to change.

** Expedited Delivery currently requires two Expedited Delivery vouchers, subject to change.

Selling items for 1 million or more platinum

 * 1) Change price to something easy to spot like 555555pp
 * 2) Camp out completely
 * 3) Open EQ file directory
 * 4) Sort by last changed date for the files and near the top will be something like charname_BZR.txt
 * 5) Find the 555555000 (3 zeros for gold, silver and copper)
 * 6) Change it to 2100000000 (2.1mil pp) or lower

It looks like the limit is a signed 32-bit number, which would give a max value of: 2147483647 or 2,147,483 plat, 5 gold, 4 silver and 7 copper

Careful, the actual limit may be a tiny bit smaller as usually they reserve a few characters for various tags, you wouldn't want it to do something crazy like reset the value to like 2 gold if it went 2 over with any reserved numbers (I do not know if this is the case, but just pointing it out, I'd test with some cheap item first).
