Market & Currency
Roubles, dollars, euros and GP coins; what reputation gates; sell prices and condition; and a few prices worth knowing.
The money#
Roubles are the currency. Every trader takes them except Ref, who deals only in GP coins. Dollars and euros are sell goods — loot you turn into roubles, not notes you spend — and can be exchanged — a dollar is worth 145 ₽ and a euro 160 ₽ at the exchange counters, which Skier, Peacekeeper, Fence and the Lightkeeper run.
GP coins are earned, never bought. Ref's tasks, the dailies and weeklies, loot and other players are the only sources. A GP coin is valued at 6,300 ₽ and can be changed into roubles at the same four counters, but the ATM no longer takes it.
What reputation gates#
Every market item has a rarity, and each rarity opens at a reputation level. The gate is on buying: you can sell anything to anyone from day one. Reputation has the ladder; the headline gates are:
| What | Tier needed (reputation) |
|---|---|
| Cars and trucks | Rare · 50,000 to Legendary · 100,000 |
| Armoured vehicles | Mythic · 200,000 |
| Helicopters | Exotic · 300,000 |
| Lab access keycard | Uncommon · 25,000 |
| Cases and containers | Common to Mythic · 200,000 |
Vehicle parts, base building, storage and repair gear are deliberately not gated.
Selling#
Each trader buys at his own percentage of an item's value — from 23% at Peacekeeper to 66% at the Lightkeeper. Traders lists them all. On top of that, condition scales what you get:
| Condition | You get |
|---|---|
| Pristine | the full rate |
| Worn | three quarters of it |
| Damaged | half |
| Badly damaged | a quarter |
Buying is at list price at every trader except Ref, who charges 150% in GP coins. Prices were rebuilt against Tarkov's at the last wipe — armour, ammunition and weapons sit in tiers that never overlap, so a price tells you roughly what the protection class or the calibre is.

| Territory generator kit (Jaeger) | 250,000 ₽ |

The player market#
Selling to other players — listing an item, buying somebody's listing — happens at the player market in the hub and at any base terminal. Player market and terminals.
