# Selling items

By far, the best way to sell your things is to visit player shops. Lots of markets can be found on <mark style="color:yellow;">LilacMC’s marketplace</mark>, which can be accessed with <mark style="color:green;">**/market**</mark>. Here, players can rent spaces to set up shops, and other players can visit these shops and buy and sell their items.&#x20;

**If you are looking to make your own shop, it will be covered in a** [**separate guide**](https://wiki.lilacmc.net/features/chest-shops)**.**&#x20;

However, you might be more interested in just selling your job-related things. Take a look around the <mark style="color:yellow;">marketplace</mark> and look for a <mark style="color:purple;">**chest with a sign**</mark> that has the item you are looking to sell. Here, you can simply **left-click on the sign** and a message will pop up asking how many you want to sell, as well as other information about the shop. Then, <mark style="color:green;">**enter in chat the number of items you are selling**</mark>**, or “**<mark style="color:orange;">**all**</mark>**” to sell everything.**

***

The <mark style="color:red;">**Auction House**</mark> is an alternative option for selling items and offers a more immediate system of buying and selling. There is no cost to use it, and every player has access to list and purchase items.&#x20;

You can view the Auction House by running <mark style="color:green;">**/ah**</mark>, which will bring up a GUI showing existing listings. **To buy an item, simply left-click on the item and confirm your purchase.**&#x20;

To sell an item you must hold the item in your hand and type <mark style="color:yellow;">**/ah sell**</mark>, followed by the price of the item and how many items to sell. **Every listing expires after a few days**, and you can recover unsold items from the Expired Items tab.
