Price-checking an item tells you what it is worth before you sell or buy. The trade site is the tool for this.
Why this matters
Selling too low or buying too high wastes currency. A quick price check protects your value.
Step-by-step
- Open the official trade site.
- Search for items with the same base and key mods.
- Compare the listed prices of similar items.
- Adjust your price to match the market.
- Re-check periodically as prices shift.
- Never list far above the going rate or it will not sell.

Practical notes
Price-check on the trade site by searching your item and reading recent sold listings, not the highest ask. Compare similar rolls and sockets to set a fair price.
Learn the currency ratio so you value divines and exalts correctly. Beware scams that ask you to overpay or use a wrong currency. A quick search before listing avoids both under-selling and no-sales. Accurate pricing moves your items faster.
Read recent sold listings, not the highest ask, and learn the currency ratio so you value divines and exalts correctly before listing.
