How Can I Sell Items For Gil in FFXIV?

Market Board trading can be one of the fastest ways to generate wealth in-game. But it's far from being your only means of profit-making!

Other methods require less time commitment but still can yield great returns, including undercutting and raiding activities, or visiting other world servers where items can be purchased at lower prices.

The Market Board

The Market Board is the main in-game marketplace where players can sell items for Gil, accessible through market districts across each major city-state and residential district. Each market district connects directly to a server-wide market; purchasing items from other cities incurs an additional small fee; sellers can set their own prices when selling an item, while buyers can check previous sales data to estimate its worth.

Crafters can maximize their earnings using the Market Board by undercutting other players' prices for identical items, making sure their offer is the lowest available. Gatherers also often find lucrative ways of making FFxiv Gil, such as gathering materials off different world servers or cities at cheaper rates - this is especially helpful before new content patches release when materials may become scarce and players stockpile them before preparing themselves with gear and nodes for battle!

Mail

One of the easiest ways to earn Gil in Final Fantasy XIV is through the Market Board. Here, players can use items they no longer require as currency to sell to other players on the Market Board and earn extra gil that way.

Crafting gear is always in demand and this method may prove especially fruitful if you own high-level crafting equipment, however it can be time-consuming process.

Players can sell items to each other through the mail system. This requires being in the same Free Company (FC). Gil and items can then be sent by talking with Delivery Moggle NPCs located around settlements.

Sell food and potions on the Market Board to make some extra gil, especially after a new patch arrives. Furthermore, harvest materials from World Map to earn even more FFxiv Gil.

NPCs

In FFXIV, various NPCs sell items which can be bought and sold for Gil. These may include anything from armor and weapon upgrades to mounts - although depending on what the item is they may charge quite a lot for their offerings.

Example: On the market board, weathered pickaxes typically sell for between 10,000 and 20,000 Gil. But players can purchase this same model from nearby NPCs for far less money.

Collect and resell materials is another effective method for earning Gil in Final Fantasy XIV, though not as lucrative. While this route might not yield as many Gil as crafting would do, players can quickly become rich by selling items collected to other players at a profit.

One method for gathering items is by completing dungeons. Dungeons provide unique items that can be sold on the Market Board at great profit; maps alone may be worth several thousands of ffxiv gil.

Retainers

Diversify markets is equally as essential to having enough sale slots and ventures as having enough sale slots and ventures. By hiring retainers (you can do this either through Mog Station purchases or making alt characters with specific retainers) who each sell items at different market prices, ensuring that if one market crashes, another remains profitable.

Travel to other world servers to purchase items at reduced costs that sell for a higher price on your server (for instance: Steel Goggles). While this can be costly venture wise, it can be an effective way of quickly earning Gil - especially during the initial week after a new patch when everyone frantically stocks up on Gil reserves.

Other effective techniques of earning FFxiv Gil include daily roulettes and hunt boards which offer rewards in terms of Gil. Treasure maps also present an effective method of gathering more Gil; hunting them alone may prove fruitless while joining a treasure map party may produce even greater results in terms of additional maps being discovered and potential treasure being unearthed.
