These can be handy shops found in the huge shopping district of New Atlantis, hidden gems found within the murky streets of Neon or some unknown planet that we’ve stumbled upon but gives you better bang for your buck. Everything is accounted for.
Wherever you’re looking to sell items in Starfield, the full details of which merchants and their location in the galaxy can be found below.
Where to sell items in Starfield explained
To sell items in Starfield you need to find a vendor who will accept the goods you want to sell. In the Buy menu, press LB (on Xbox) or Q (on PC) to swap to the Sell menu and press it again to swap from your inventory to your ship’s cargo.
Vendors and merchants can be found across the universe and, in most cases, general merchants will be your first port of call as they buy pretty much anything. If you have stolen items or contraband, you’ll need to head to a Trade Authority.
Trade Authority kiosks are usually found next to where you land but they don’t have as many credits to buy items as the bigger shops do. Annoyingly, you cannot sell directly from your companions’ inventory, so you will need to manually take what you want to sell from them.
If you’re stuck finding where all the shops are then check out our list below.
