Auction house

The auction house is a server-wide marketplace where players list items at a fixed price for any other player to buy. It complements ChestShop signs: ChestShop is best for high-volume commodity trading, while the auction house suits one-off, high-value, or hard-to-display items such as enchanted gear, named tools, and rare drops. Open it with /ah.

Despite the name, the auction house is not a bidding system. Each listing has a single fixed price set by the seller, and the first buyer to pay that price receives the item.

Listing an item

Hold the item stack you want to sell.
Run /ah sell <price> [hours] — for example, /ah sell 1500 24.
The stack moves into the marketplace and becomes visible to everyone in /ah.

The price is the total asking price for the whole held stack. The optional hours value sets how long the listing stays up before it expires; it defaults to 24 hours and can be at most 72 hours.

Fees

A listing fee is charged the moment you list, and a sale cut is taken when the item sells:

Listing fee: $5 plus 1% of the asking price, paid up front.
Sale cut: 5% of the sale price, deducted from your proceeds at the time of sale.

The listing fee is not refunded if you cancel the listing or it expires. This deters listing spam, so set prices deliberately.

Browsing and buying

/ah or /ah browse [page] opens the marketplace, showing 45 listings per page, newest first.
/ah search <query> filters listings by item name.
Hovering over a listing shows its full details: quantity, price, time remaining, seller, and any enchantments or custom lore.
Clicking a listing buys it immediately. The cash leaves your balance and the item is delivered to your inventory, or dropped at your feet if your inventory is full. There is no separate confirmation step, so click carefully.

Managing your listings

/ah me: Shows your active listings. Shift-click a listing to cancel it. The item returns to your mailbox, and the listing fee is not refunded.
/ah cancel <id>: Cancels a specific listing by its ID — the same action as shift-clicking in /ah me.
/ah history: Shows your last 50 settled listings, both sold and expired.

Mailbox

Run /ah mailbox to claim items that have come back to you: listings that expired with no buyer, or ones you cancelled. Click an item to collect it; if your inventory is full, it drops at your feet. Mailbox items never expire, so nothing is lost by being offline.

Cash from a sale does not go to the mailbox. Sale proceeds — the sale price minus the 5% cut — are paid directly into your account balance the moment the item sells.

Bedrock players

The auction house works on Bedrock Edition. The browse and mailbox screens are standard chest menus that Geyser renders natively, and every command behaves the same as on Java.

Trade safety

Buying is instant and atomic: the cash and the item change hands together, so there is no risk of paying without receiving the item.
Every sale is recorded in the server transaction ledger and feeds the Consumer Price Index, so auction prices appear in /market data.
High-value sales are logged for staff review.
