Chest shops

Players sell items from a chest with a sign. Coins come out of /bal. No staff shop required.

Use a shop

Find a sign on a chest.

You need the item in your inventory to sell. You need coins to buy. Empty shops do not work until the owner restocks the chest.

Make a shop

  1. Put a chest down. Put the item you want to sell in it.
  2. Place a sign on the chest, or on a block touching the chest.
  3. Type the four lines exactly, then walk away. The first line becomes your name if it worked.
LineWhat to write
1Leave empty. It fills with your name.
2Stack size per click. Example: 16 or 64
3Prices. B 20 = they pay 20 to buy from you. S 8 = you pay 8 when they sell to you. Both: B 20 : S 8
4Item name. Example: DIAMOND or BREAD. Or hold the item and write ?

Example

Sell 16 bread for 5 coins. Do not buy bread from players:

Buy cobble from players for 1 coin a stack, and also sell cobble for 4:

Rules of thumb

If the sign does not change line 1 to your name, the item name or price line is wrong. Break the sign and write it again.
