To sell a ship in Starfield, players need to go to a spaceport or space station where there is a Ship Services Technician vendor. The steps to sell a ship are as follows:
- Land at a spaceport or dock to a station with a Ship Technician. New Atlantis is one accessible location with a Ship Technician.
- Speak to the Ship Services Technician and select the dialogue option to view available ships for sale.
- Switch from the buy menu to the sell menu.
- Choose the ship you want to sell from your ship inventory.
- Confirm the sale to receive Credits.
- Note: You cannot sell your home ship, so if you want to sell a ship currently set as your home ship, you must first designate another ship as your home ship.
- Also, if you want to sell captured or stolen ships, you need to register them first by paying a fee to the Ship Technician.
This procedure applies universally at major settlements and spaceports with Ship Services Technicians. For selling general items (like weapons, gear, or resources), visit any merchant, ask to see items they have for sale, then switch to their sell menu to sell from your inventory or your ship's cargo hold. Some vendors specialize in certain item types, so selling at general merchants like Jemison Mercantile in New Atlantis is often best. For selling stolen or contraband goods, visit a Trade Authority vendor. This covers how to sell both ships and items in Starfield comprehensively.
