To sell items in Starfield, find a vendor or store in a major city, settlement, or spaceport. Approach the vendor and ask to view their wares. Then press Q on PC or LB on Xbox to switch to the selling menu. From there, you can select items from your inventory or your ship's cargo to sell. Some vendors specialize in certain types of items, so if a vendor won't buy your items, try a general store or a Trade Authority kiosk, which are commonly found at spaceports. Stolen items usually require special vendors or a Trade Authority to sell. The Commerce skill can increase sale prices and improve profit from selling goods.

Steps to Sell Items:

  • Locate a vendor or Trade Authority kiosk in a city, settlement, or spaceport.
  • Ask to see the items they have for sale.
  • Press Q (PC) or LB (Xbox) to toggle to the Sell menu.
  • Choose items from your inventory or ship cargo to sell.
  • Some vendors only accept specific item categories; if needed, find a general store.

Tips:

  • Use Trade Authority kiosks at major spaceports for quick selling.
  • Commerce skill improves sale prices.
  • Stolen items need special vendors or Trade Authority outlets.
  • You cannot sell directly from companions; transfer items to yourself or your ship.
