Community Marketplace
Critical Ops Community Marketplace is an in-game marketplace for all Critical Ops players, where you can buy and sell Critical Ops weapon skins and items with other players. Here are some frequently asked questions about the marketplace and answers to them.
Overview
Q: What can I find on the Community Marketplace? A: You can find Buy requests and Sell offers for items such as weapon and utility skins, agents, animations, and more. All requests are made by other Critical Ops players. The Marketplace is not designed for direct player-to-player trading or exchanging items between friends.
Q: How do I start using the Community Marketplace? A: To start buying and selling items on the Community Marketplace, you must accept the Community Marketplace terms and rules that you see upon entering it for the first time. You can find the Marketplace terms HERE.
Q: Can I buy items with real money on the Community Marketplace? A: No. All transactions on the Community Marketplace are made with in-game items and in-game Credits. This makes the Marketplace accessible to all players.
Buying and Selling
Q: How do I sell items? A: You can create a sell offer for items you own and wait for someone to buy your items, or you can find buy requests made by other players and sell your items to them. Note that you can only fulfill a buy request of the highest price.
Q: How do I buy items? A: You can create a buy request for items you want and wait for someone to sell their items to you, or you can find sell offers made by other players and buy their items.
Q: Can I create several buy requests and sell offers? A: Yes, you can have several listings on the Community Marketplace simultaneously; however, you cannot have more than 20 individual sell offers and 100 individual buy requests.
Q: What is the commission? A: Each buy request and sell offer on the Community Marketplace includes a percentage-based Credit commission. The commission is roughly 20%, but cannot be lower than 10 credits. The commission is applied automatically, and the total credit amount is shown on the listing creation screen. The commission is only shown to the player creating the listing.
Q: Can I buy or sell multiple of the same item at once? A: Yes, you can buy and sell multiples of the same item at once. You cannot buy a single item from a bulk sell offer or sell a single item to a bulk buy request. You can create a bulk listing with up to 5 units of an item.
Example: If you create a buy request for 5x SA58 Olive weapon skins, a player would need to have all these items to sell; they cannot sell their singular SA58 Olive weapon skin to you.
Q: If someone has a sell offer that matches my buy request, will the transaction happen? A: Yes. Since version 1.47, the Marketplace has an automated listing matching system.
Example: You create a buy request for 5 AK-47 Koi skins for 1200 credits, and 5 individual sell offers are found that have a combined price of 1200 credits or less. In such a case, your listing and those 5 listings will be filled.
Q: Can I buy or sell multiple different items at once? A: You can create different buy requests and sell offers with individual items. However, a single request or offer cannot have more than one item type.
Example: You can create 2 offers to sell your AK47 Dracula and M4 Superhexagon, but you cannot create a single sell offer for both items.
Q: Can I still use my items if I make a sell offer? A: No. Once you make a sell offer, the items used will be temporarily preserved from your account. You will not be able to use these items. If you cancel the sell offer, the items will be once again available for you to use in your inventory.
Q: What happens when I make a buy request? A: When you create a buy request, the specified amount of Credits will be pre-booked from your account. If you cancel the buy request, the credits will be returned to your account.
Q: I accidentally bought or sold an item. Can I refund or revert my transaction? A: No, all Community Marketplace transactions are final and irreversible once another player has fulfilled your listing.
Q: I was scammed. Can I get my items or credits back? A: Unfortunately, we cannot refund or restore items lost due to scams. The Community Marketplace is designed to handle all transactions securely.
We strongly advise against making deals outside of the Marketplace, including real-money trades, as these are not supported and are strictly against our terms. To stay safe, always use the Marketplace as intended and avoid sharing account or trade details with others.
Q: Can all players use the Community Marketplace? A: All players can access and use the Community Marketplace after accepting the terms and rules—except for banned accounts. Banned players are restricted from using the Marketplace, regardless of the reason or duration of the ban. This is the only exception to Marketplace access.
Q: When will items from the latest update be available on the Marketplace? A: Items from previous updates, such as Critical Pass items, generally become available on the Marketplace when a new update arrives. These items, along with others introduced in the update, will be announced in the patch notes. Check the patch notes for more details on what’s available!
