With many years of gaming since childhood under my belt, I have been focusing on reaching new personal achievements and pushing the limits of what's possible at countless opportunities. These days I focus mainly on ARPGs, especially Diablo and PoE, and pursue the highest ranks worldwide. I like to explore, experiment, create my own style and share the best strategies with others on Twitch, YouTube or here on Maxroll! If there's a difficult build out there, you can bet I have played it already.

The Marketplace Explained
The Marketplace is Diablo Immortal's in-game trading feature and works similarly to auction houses in other games. There is no other way to transfer items between players or even your own characters in the game! Here you can buy and sell items for Platinum, a currency mostly purchased with real money in the game store. All items that can be traded have both a minimum and a maximum amount of Platinum they can be listed for. A small sum of Gold is used as a fee to post items and listed items will stay in the Marketplace for 2 days. To access the Marketplace, talk to Dya in Rakkis Plaza in Westmarch.
Not all items in the game can be traded, like weapons, armor and jewelry. Only some secondary items and their connected materials can be placed as an auction, including:
- Gems (up to Rank 5)
- Legendary Gems (of different ranks and stars)
- Runes (used for crafting Legendary Gems)
- Skill Stones (used for crafting Charms)
Buying Items
One thing to be aware of when browsing the market is that not all items are of equal quality. While Gems and Runes are interchangeable commodities, Legendary Gems and Skill Stones can differ in their quality, rank and general usefulness for your character. Make sure to take a closer look before making a purchase!
If you are unsure or want to bid at the last moment, you can use the Watchlist feature to quickly find items again when you come back. Simply tap the little heart icon in the top right corner of your desired item. You also get a notification 3 minutes before an item on your Watchlist expires.
Selling Items
To sell an item, simply select it in the according window and list it for the desired amount of Platinum. In the case of stackable items (Gems & Runes) you can also select a quantity to sell many at once.
As different characters and builds chase different Legendary Gems, this is the place to get rid of some of your own leftovers to acquire more Platinum and buy the ones you need for yourself. Remember, you need leftover Legendary Gems to sacrifice to upgrade the ones you're using! The same applies to Skill Stones that can be used to craft Charms. Make sure to check out your class guide to understand which you should keep! Don't sell any of the recommended top tier Gems and instead upgrade those as much as possible with others.
Summary
- The Marketplace is the only way to trade and uses Platinum as a currency.
- Only Gems, Runes and Skill Stones can be traded.
- Sell what you won't need and buy what's recommended in your class guide.
- The Watchlist can be a great help to get notified in the last moments of an ongoing auction.
