Your shopfood factor applies when you try to sell an item to some shop for instant cash. The shop offers you a percentage of the item’s nominal value. This percentage is what I call “shopfood factor”.
For instance, for any QL200 shiny cluster, which has a nominal value of 270,300 (comes from the “Value” field in the item link)…
- a level 1 omni or neutral char, selling to an “OT Basic weapons” (factor 6) shop would get 6% of its nominal value, that is 270,300 * 6 / 100 = 16,218 credits.
- a level 1 clan (factor 4) char would get only 4%, that is 270,300 * 4 / 100 = 10,812 credits.
Long story short: If you’re new to the game and intend to get a significant part of your income from selling shopfood, roll an omni trader, raise him to at least level 25 (factor 8), and let him be your shopfood seller!!!
Anyway, here’s the table of the different shopfood factors for the most profitable selling options. In all cases, the shopfood factor increases with the computer literacy of the seller.
| Computer literacy range | Omni trader (L25+) selling to omni trader shop Where? |
Any trader (L25+) selling to non-omni trader shop Where? |
Omni or Neutral selling to “OT Basic Weapons” shop Where? |

Some notes:
- Selling to “OT …” (factor 6) shops is not the same as selling to “Omni …” (factor 4) shops. Careful!
- Neutral chars can sell to “OT Basic Weapons”, and perhaps the other “OT Weapons” shops. Omni chars can sell to any “OT …” shop.
- Non-trader clans are stuck with selling at factor 4 shops, as far as I know.
Shop locations
I’m just mentioning one of each class (except factor 4), but there are many more:
- Omni trader shop, factor 8+, only for omni traders L25+. There’s one at Omni Trade 235,490. Copy & paste this:
/waypoint 235 490 710
Go inside and look for the “OT Specialist Commerce”.
- Neutral trader shop, factor 7+, accepts neutral and clan traders L25+. There’s one at Borealis 650,575. Copy & paste this:
/waypoint 650 575 800
Go inside and look for the “Specialist Commerce”.
- OT Basic Weapons shop, factor 6+, accepts any omni or neutral citizen. There’s one at Omni Trade 365,500. Copy & paste this:
/waypoint 365 500 710
Go inside and look for the “OT Basic Weapons”.
