A chest shop allows you to buy from and sell items to other players.

To open a shop, place a chest with a sign on one side. On the sign, use this format:

An example of the chest shop format. This would allow other's to buy 8 dirt from you for $2, or sell 8 dirt to you for $1.

Use the format to the left to write your sign. Remember that the 'Buy' and 'Sell' are from the other player's perspetive (i.e buy = they buy from you). Once complete, you will be prompted to right click the sign with the item you'd like to buy and sell.

To set your chest to 'buy' only, enter one value in the Buy:Sell section instead of two.

To set your chest to 'sell' only, enter a ':' before your single value.

Once created, place items you'd like to sell in the chest. You may also right click the sign to toggle a display of your item.
