Direct answers

Where do I trade?

The official trade site is pathofexile.com/trade2. It hosts item search and the Currency Exchange, where you convert currencies (for example Chaos to Exalted, or Divine to Chaos) in bulk.

How do I sell?

You need a Premium stash tab set to public. Right-click an item in it to set a price; the game gives you a trade command you can paste in chat. Buyers whisper you, then meet in your hideout.

How do I price fairly?

Use poe.ninja as a live price reference for both items and currencies, then undercut slightly to sell faster. The in-game advanced price check helps you value an item before listing.

Currency Exchange lets you convert between these in bulk without finding a player buyer - useful for turning many small orbs into the one you need.

Buying, selling, exchanging

Trading has three distinct flows. Open the one you need.

Search the trade site, then use the in-game whisper.

  • Filter by item type, modifiers, and price on pathofexile.com/trade2.
  • Click 'Whisper' to copy the command, paste it into game chat, and wait for the invite.
  • Meet in the seller's hideout and complete the trade in the window.
