How does Bazaar works?
Based on the feedback I have so far, how the bazaar works might be a bit confusing. Just wanted to give a brief explanation / guide on how to use it:

Bazaar has a different customer amount visiting every day. When you visit the bazaar in your ship, you can put the items on sale on a range of different prices. The item is not guaranteed to be sold. Rather, when you put an item on sale and start the trading day, the customers will start visiting you and deciding whether they want the item or not. If the price is too high - they have a higher chance of not buying it. Same works in reverse: if you want to sell items quickly, you need to set lower price (but essentially lose the higher profit).

If you have tried the game and have any suggestions on how it can be improved or just need some extra clarifications - let me know.

Finish 4 times and use the bazaar ..1 time , to test . Honnestly , with the inventory system , search and go to town with the higher price for sell all goods is better . Problem : price limit . Why use the bazaar , if we cannot sell out of range ? ( maybe add a reputation system ? Or maybe a quest , sell X goods in the bazaar ). For me , it's the big point to improve , useless for me . ( in my point of view of course )

Hey! Thanks for sharing, it's clear that the Bazaar needs a buff so expect one soon :)

I think a improvement on the Bazaar would be if you could buy a stall at a location and leave items you want to sell and overtime they get sold. upgrades could be higher capacity and customers tendency to buy at higher prices
I started using the bazaar to sell gems. I was able to get a lot more through it than if I sold them at different islands.

My only question about the bazaar is what happens to the items that don't sell? Are they lost or do they go back to your inventory?

I'd like to see an option to choose how much of an item you want to sell rather than clicking one at a time.

The items are returned to you :) You can shift + click to select 10 at once and ctrl + click to select 10
