 As the server moves on and many mages look for goodies on the black market, prices inflate especially on the [[turns|faster servers]]. This means that mages that want rare items from the black market, need to concentrate on getting more than usual ammounts of [[Geld]], a dedication also known as [[Whoring]].
 Anyway, this is how the [[Black Market]] works:
 * [[Items]] can be sold and bought in the [[Antique Store]] of the [[Black Market]].
 * [[Heroes]] only be hired (not traded) in the [[Tavern of Heroes]] section
 * [[Spells]] can only be bought (not trade) in the [[Exotic Mageware]] section.
