Using a store

There are Store NPCs in castles, gates and specific fields.
There are several Store NPCs, and each one sells specialized items required to play the game, such as weapons, defense armor, potions or war reward items.
Players can buy/sell items from/to Store NPCs.
You can sell your item to any NPC no matter what kind of item it is.
And the selling prices of items are the same.
You can find the locations of Store NPCs in the Map Window in the upper right corner of the screen.

Using a Warehouse

Warehouses in Sho Online are shared by characters. So every character created by an account on a server shares a personal warehouse.
For example, if you have 4 characters like Sho Online Assassin1, Sho Online Assassin2, Sho Online Soolsa1 and Sho Online Warrior1 on Ban-goh server,
each character does not have its own warehouse but shares one with the others.
There is no restriction on the use of a personal warehouse, but you have to pay a fee when you deposit or withdraw an item.
To use a warehouse, find a warehouse keeper NPC in a castle or a gate and talk to the character.
If you open the Conversation Window, you can see the Use Warehouse button on the bottom left corner of the screen. Click the Use Warehouse button to open a warehouse and use it.

Using an Item Exchange

The Item Exchange system allows players to consign their items to Exchange Agent NPCs so that they can buy or sell items easily.

The biggest advantage of the Item Exchange system is that, not like personal stores, sellers can carry out other activities, such as hunting, while selling their items, and buyers can find items to buy conveniently in the Item Exchange Window without clicking every character that opens a store.

To open the Item Registration Window, click the [Item Sale] button on the bottom left corner of the Inventory Window.
You can register up to 5 items in the Item Registration Window, and the items are stored in a new storage space.
