How to sell Albion Online items
What buyers of Albion Online items ask first, how the handover works in this game, how to price it, and what can go wrong. Escrow on every order; you receive exactly the price you set.
Albion Online is a full player economy: gear, mounts, resources and vanity all trade freely, and every item has a public price in every city. What an item listing needs is the server first — an item exists on one server only — then the tier, enchantment and quality, then the city it sits in if it is already on a market.
What buyers ask first — and what the listing must say
- Server — West, East or Europe; items cannot move between them.
- Tier, enchantment and quality; T8.3 masterpiece and T8.0 normal are different products.
- For mounts and vanity: the source and whether it is discontinued.
- The city if the item sits on a market, and when you are online.
How the handover works
- Direct trade in a safe city after payment; the buyer's character name is on the order page.
- High-value items one at a time.
- Premium status and learning points stay on the account and are not items.
Every order here runs through SmurfGuard escrow, in the same five steps:
- The buyer pays. The money goes into SmurfGuard escrow — not to you, not to us.
- The order appears in your seller cabinet at /seller/orders with everything the buyer gave: character name, trade link, or the access for a piloted order.
- You hand over — in game, by trade offer, or with the account — and mark the order delivered on that page.
- The buyer confirms. Your share moves to hold.
- It stays on hold until the warranty window ends, then lands on your balance.
How to price it
- Price against the city market for the same tier, enchantment and quality, converted at the silver rate.
- Rare and discontinued mounts and event vanity are priced individually, well above material cost.
- Resources and low-tier gear sell in stacks.

What can go wrong
- Real-money trading is against the rules; enforcement lands on the accounts involved.
- A listing without the server is a cancelled order — half the buyers are on another one.
What you receive
The commission is 0%: you receive exactly the price you set — not the price minus a percentage, not the price minus a transaction fee, not the price minus a withdrawal charge. There is no listing fee, no monthly fee and no seller rank that unlocks a better rate later. The hold is not a fee either: it is what makes a buyer willing to pay a stranger before receiving anything, and it is released the moment the warranty window closes.
Every new listing goes through moderation before it reaches the storefront. The check is about the listing being accurate — the details above, stated plainly — not about you proving anything.
Seller ranks
Your store carries a rank badge — New, Rising, Top or Elite — computed from confirmed sales, rating and reviews, and recomputed after every sale and every review. It changes nothing about the fee, the hold or the warranty: it is what buyers see next to your name on every listing, and one of the ways they can sort a shelf. The thresholds are public: seller ranks.
