Learning where to sell items in Starfield means you can offload trinkets, resources, and more for the most amount of credits. With lots of different shops scattered around the various planets of the Settled Systems, no maps to find them, and confusing item value stats, Starfield doesn't make it easy to know where and how to sell your stuff - the 'Value' stat in particular doesn't actually reflect how much you'll be paid for selling an item. To help you make some space money, I've got some tips below to help you sell items in Starfield quickly.
How to sell things in Starfield
To sell things in Starfield, you just need to find any vendor or store owner and press "LB" to swap from the buying menu to the selling menu. You can even press LB again to sell items directly from your ship's cargo inventory, so you don't have to carry it across town yourself.
Vendors aren't too difficult to find once you know where to look, though the lack of maps for cities and towns makes that initial discovery difficult. The easiest place to sell things are the green Trade Authority Kiosks that are at all major spaceports where you land your ships, as shown above. They're usually either at the exit to the landing pad, or next to the attending ship technician.
Beyond that, you can find stores with human vendors in all major Starfield cities, sometimes plenty more than one. In New Atlantis on Jemison, there's a whole Commercial District full of vendors - if you've just fast travelled here or got off the tram, head across the pool directly ahead of you in the direction of the Lodge to find the UC Distribution Center or Outlander, both of which sell and buy everything that a hardy space adventurer would probably need. Alternatively, the city of Neon on Volii Alpha is one big cyberpunk market, at least at the "Core" section, a street of shops you can use to your leisure.
What to do when Vendors run out of money
If you do too much business and sell too many things to them, vendors may run out of money, meaning they'll still take things off your hands but won't give you any cash for them. If a vendor is out of money, the best thing to do is find a nearby chair or bed wait in Starfield for twenty-four hours. Vendors get supplies of money back every day, so you just need to wait for the next one to do fresh business. They can also get money back if you buy things from them, but that doesn't help much if they don't have anything you want to buy.
Of course, if you're finding yourself strapped for cash, we've got a Starfield money page right here, with tips on glitches, exploits, farming and generally how to make yourself an astronomically wealthy astronaut.
