Claiming a plot

Let’s get started!

Plots are free to claim in the Shopping District. All vacant plots with have a sign saying “FREE PLOT” on them.

When you find a marked plot you like, just place your name on the sign. You now have 14 days to stock, and complete building your shop.

Building your shop

Understanding themes

Your shop must be original, and have a theme. By having themed shops it makes it easy for others to understand what you are selling. It adds a little more fun to our world. Do not create a shop to sell items quickly.

It is important that the items in your shop fit within the theme of your shop.

Examples of great themes below:

Light Shop

Selling torches, lanterns, sea lanterns, and other items which provide light.

Concrete Shop

Selling simply all colours of concrete, and concrete powder.

Wood Shop

Selling oak logs, spruce leaves, and other wood related items.

Food Shop

Selling pumpkin pie, golden carrots, and other which can be eaten.

Potion Shop

Selling all types of potions, including lingering potions, and splash potions.

Redstone Shop

Selling redstone dust, hoppers, and other redstone components

Book Shop

Selling enchanted books, paper and other book items.

Spider Shop

Selling string, cobwebs, spider eyes, and other spider items.

Dye Shop

Selling blue dye, pink dye, red dye, and all other types of dye.

Glass Shop

Selling clear glass, coloured glass, and even tinted glass.

TNT Shop

TNT is always in demand! This will always be busy with diamonds.

Music Disc Shop

Selling discs from the popular Pigstep to the cat disc.

Witch Shop

Selling sugar, glowstone dust, and other witch items.

Fish Shop

Simply fish, boats, fishing rods, and other fish items.

Terracotta Shop

Enjoy collecting terracotta? Share that passion by selling glazed, natural and coloured terracotta.

Be creative with your shops, and try to avoid opening a general store!
You are not allowed to open the following shops.

No “Mob Drop” Shop

Instead of selling every dropped item in the game, focus on just one mob. A great example would be a ghast shop selling ghast tears or a slime shop selling slimeballs, and slime blocks.

No “Block” Shop

Having a shop selling blocks, is basically a general store. Instead of selling everything, create a defined theme. A great example would be a diorite shop, just selling diorite. Simple, but lucrative.

No “Villager” Shop

Instead of selling every villager trades possible, focus on selling one villager trade. A great example is the Mason villager, who sells terracotta, bricks, chiseled stone bricks, and blocks of quartz.

The Directory

Be found!

Located in the centre of the Shopping District is our Directory Board! Here you can add your own shop for free. You can change the sign to another colour if you prefer, and jazz it up with /colors.

Include your shop name, what you sell, coordinates, and street name. This is the best way to ensure your shop can be found. Please do not place item frames on the Directory.

Fair Economy

Clear pricing!

When opening a shop, it is important that you make it clear what the price is of the item you are selling. We suggest using a shiny item, which you don’t usually sell like an emerald.

Respect the market value of items in the Price Index. The prices within this index are the minimum, that of which you can sell an item for in our world. You can sell items for a higher price than what is listed within our Price Index, but you can’t sell items for less. This is to ensure a fair economy for everyone.

Town Hall Property Department

Auction Time!

The Town Hall Property Department is responsible for auctioning unstocked / inactive shops. Before going to auction, any players who are unable to keep their shop stocked will be notified before their shop is auctioned. If after 2 days, we do not receive a reply then the shop will be forfeited, and auctioned to other players.

Where is the Town Hall Property Department?
The Town Hall Property Department is located in the Shopping district Town Hall. All available property can be viewed here.

How do I bid on a property?
To place a bid, you need to write your name on a piece of paper with an anvil, with the amount you would like to bid, and then place it inside the PLOT barrel. No one else will be able to see your bid! If you bid, and then want to change your bid to a higher amount, just submit a new piece of paper.

What happens if I win the auction?
Congratulations you won! Now, you need to place your diamonds in the Payment Chest, in the Town Hall Property Department office. Make sure you collect your receipt, and souvenir map! As you are only allowed 2 shop plots, you now have 2 choices. You can either keep the winning shop including all the materials for yourself, or remove the shop and give the plot space back to the community.

You must finish building your shop, and stock it within 14 days.

As long as your shop is stocked for 14 days, and you come back within 45 days then your shop will be fine. If you are uncertain, then just send us a modmail.

Of course! We all like to change things, so you can change your shop theme any time. However, try not to change your shop every week, as we don’t want you having a reputation of opening Pop-Up Shops.

Of course! A community without rules is anarchy. You can view our Shopping District rules here.
