# Trade System

Crafting materials can be sold for a pre-defined amount of Gold within the trade system. This way, you are able to acquire more Gold to pay for the crafting fees of the recipes you would like to create.

You are also able to purchase crafting materials in the same trade system for a pre-defined value per material type and quality tier. Be aware that purchasing materials will always cost more Gold than what the material is selling for.

Currently, the trade system allows you to trade to the system, and a community driven trade option will be added to ZTX at a later point.
