Initial Steps: Navigating the Star Citizen Marketplace
-
Explore the In-game Market: Open the game market, look around. That's the best starting point!
-
Search for Categories: Search "Furniture," or something similar. Filter!
(Some items may not have explicit "furniture" as a category)
Specific Furniture Shopping Hubs
The CitizenCon Marketplace (and others)
- CitizenCon, it's not always just for games; it's also a community hub where lots of people show their work, and even sale new things from in-game places.
- Many in-game places also might sell items and you have to be alert to find those opportunities.
Finding Your Ideal Living Room (In-game Stores)
- Shopping with caution, trust and researching prices is KEY:. The initial place can feel quite confusing. Don't jump on the first listing without considering it more deeply!

What to Consider When Purchasing
- Your ship's aesthetic: The space is a reflection of you, and the feel. Look for chairs and tables to enhance the mood and beauty of your vessel. Don't forget the details like a pretty light!
- Your budget: You likely won't need 50 million to purchase a cool lamp! Researching prices upfront will help. Look at how much you want to spend first.
- Quality: If something is inexpensive it might look plain but also may just be a start in your building! Maybe find items and decorate later when your ship has room. (There's something fun about that)!
- Reviews: Don't just take one person's words at face value, even with the few. Do read several; different reviews will provide multiple points. Be practical! It's your experience that matters the most!
- Rarity: What is truly cool or rare or fancy and expensive sometimes might end up just ordinary when you get more items. Your ship is yours!
Questions to Ask Yourself
- What color do you prefer most for the room you wish to furnish in the ship?
- What's your preferred mood for that room?
- How often will you need to use this piece of furniture in your everyday actions in game?
- Is there an existing theme or feeling of your character/ ship that this item can help complement?

Important Personal Insights
"The key is in careful research," you hear some veterans saying. Indeed, it is best to make sure before clicking any button. A lot of money can disappear if not planned out beforehand.
Buying in-game, remember the market changes fast, always compare, see comments. You don't want to end up stuck with a pile of "ordinary" decorations that don't feel personalized to you!
Pro Tip: Consider making a little wish list!
Having a look at examples to learn from what looks good and beautiful. A visually appealing space also serves as a statement!
Beyond the Basics: Unique Pieces
- Unusual items: Occasionally, rare or special pieces can appear for sale. Be alert, but be cautious! Do a lot of in-game exploration; you may stumble upon treasures beyond expectations, just don't rush into buying it on instinct; look into all factors.
- Crafting or building: Some items, including parts for furnishing ships, may involve complex interactions. Read and watch tutorials. A little research helps a lot, for understanding these.
