If you own a premium stash tab, selling items in Path Of Exile is POE Currency pretty easy. First, right-click your premium tab’s name tag and select the “public” and “each item individually priced” options. Then, place the item you wish to sell in the tab, right-click the item, and select a price. See the image above for an example of this.

Unfortunately, if you don’t own a premium stash tab, selling items is a bit of a pain. You’ll need to create a thread in the trading forums, get links to your items from your character page on the website, and then link them in your thread with the “~price x chaos” tag. If this sounds annoying and overly complicated, well… it is. Selling items is much, much POE Items simpler if you buy a premium stash tab from the in-game store. This is the closest thing to a pay-to-win mechanic in Path Of Exile, and an understandable frustration point.

Which currencies should you trade with in Path Of Exile?
Path Of Exile has dozens of currency items, with values tied to their in-game crafting uses. However, there are only really two you need to worry about for trade. Chaos Orbs are the dollar of Path Of Exile. Most trades are priced in Chaos, especially early in a league. You should list most of your low-to-mid value items in Chaos Orbs 99% of the time.

Due to a shakeup in patch 3.19, Divine Orbs are now the go-to currency for high-value trades. Previously, items worth more than around 150 Chaos were most commonly priced in Exalted Orbs. Most of the Exalted Orb's value came from metamods, which are high-end crafts that used to cost Exalted Orbs to perform. Now, these crafts cost Divine Orbs. It will take some time for the dust to settle, but it would be a shock if Divine Orbs don't replace Exalts as the new high-value trade standard. You can check the Bulk Trade tab to see the relative value of each currency. There are fewer sources of Divine Orbs than Exalted Orbs in Path Of Exile, so expect Divines to cost far more than Exalts ever did.

Common trade scams to avoid.

Unfortunately, you’re going to run into the occasional bad actor while trading in Path Of Exile. Like with any game, there are people looking to cheat the system and get ahead. If you know what to look out for, you can avoid trade scams and enjoy the game properly. Don’t let this section worry you too much. Anecdotally, I’ve played the game for three years and only encountered one scammer.

Trade cancel bait and switch.

When executing a trade in Path Of Exile, both players will have to hover their cursor over each item they’re receiving, forcing you to check that you’re getting what you asked for. Some scammers will wait for you to check their items, cancel the trade, initiate a new trade, and swap in a replacement. This could be a smaller stack of currency or an item that looks identical but has worse stats. Now, there are plenty of valid reasons to cancel and re-initiate a trade. A player may need to split a currency stack or grab an extra one from their stash. But if a player does cancel and re-initiate, be sure to double-check that you’re getting what you want.
