Read permissions before deciding an item’s value
An item can be valuable to your character without being eligible for the Market. Before pricing or moving it, read its trade, storage and use restrictions. Treat the item name and the binding label together as its identity.
Do not equate Soul Binding, an equipment-development term in regional announcements, with a general permission to trade or move an item. Inspect the actual restrictions rather than inferring them from that system’s name.

Sort your inventory by the next decision
| Item | First decision | Before removing it |
|---|---|---|
| Current equipment or a role-specific alternative | Keep available for its intended activity | Compare the replacement and preserve the pieces you still use |
| Material for a selected recipe | Keep the required quantity | Check exact recipe and bound-material eligibility |
| Unneeded tradable item | Compare Market value and demand | Inspect membership access and final sale proceeds |
| Selection chest or voucher | Choose a specific missing item | Read choices, class restrictions and any displayed expiry |
| Unknown material or apparent duplicate | Identify its use first | Read full name, grade, restrictions and recipe references |
Open selection rewards when the choice is clear
Before choosing from a chest or voucher, inspect every available output and identify the gap it fills. If you already have an equivalent reward, compare the other eligible choices. When the item displays an expiry, make the decision before that deadline.
Check which character should receive the result. Permission to move a closed chest does not by itself establish permission to move its contents. Read both descriptions before opening a reward on an alternate character.
Use a two-pass cleanup before a long session
First identify everything required by your current equipment plan, active recipes and consumable loadout. Then review the remaining items for sale or any disposal options your client actually offers.
For a bulk action, inspect the selected list before confirming. Similar icons, binding variants and different enhancement states are easy to miss. Keep unfamiliar upgrade materials until you have checked their purpose.
A currency balance is not always a spending balance
The Korean service distinguishes Kina from Kina (Bound). Check the currency accepted by the operation and the balance it will deduct from. Adding two displayed balances together can overstate what you can spend in a particular transaction.
For global Market use, also confirm active membership on the relevant server. Access restrictions and an insufficient eligible balance are different problems and require different fixes.
