The Trading Post is a Township building. It enables access to the Trader tab, which allows the player to convert items into Township resources and vice-versa. There is no benefit to having multiple Trading Posts in a Town.

The Trader is available every 8 hours (96 ticks) for 1 hour (12 ticks), meaning that there are 7 hours (84 ticks) between each visit.

Only items that have already been discovered in the Completion Log may be traded.

All items' trading value is based on their coin value, except for food, which is based on healing value, and Rune Essence, Pure Essence and Leather.

Resource Conversion

• If you have excess planks and wish to convert them to wood through trading, the best ratio is through Magic Logs or Grove Logs, at 2,400:1.
• If you have excess wood and wish to convert them to planks through trading, the best ratio is through Magic Logs at 16,800:1 base game, or Mystic Logs at 14,664:1 ToH.
• If you have excess ore and wish to convert it to stone, or vice versa, the best ratio is through Dragonite Ore at 5,670:1 base game, or Augite Ore at 4,800:1 ToH, respectively.

Summoning

When creating tablets, before cost reductions, a total of 1,000 worth of non-shard item ingredients needs to be supplied per craft, with the exception that items that have a value before 20 are considered to have a value of 20. In the case of items that can be bought via the Trading Post, except for Food, it is much more cost-efficient efficient to buy the cheapest resource than it is to buy higher-tier items. More specifically, one should buy Normal Logs, Garum Herbs, Copper Ore and Bronze Bars to make Ent, Mole, Bear and Salamander tablets. This strategy does not apply to Food items - the player should instead buy high-tier food items from the Trader.

Potions

Tier IV potions can be acquired through the use of Herblore Potions, then traded for, without the need for grinding to level 90 Mastery.
