How this works
The Hypixel SkyBlock Bazaar is a limit-order book — every trade either fills an existing order or creates a new one. The arbitrage opportunities on this site are based on the assumption that you never instant-buy or instant-sell. Instead, you place limit orders at the best available price and wait for them to fill. This keeps your costs and revenues as close as possible to the figures shown, maximising profit.
Step-by-step
Find an opportunity
Pick an item from the table on the main page. The Profit column shows how much you stand to make per craft assuming you get the best available order prices. Higher margin is usually safer — it gives you more room if prices shift while your orders are filling.
Place buy orders for the ingredients
For each ingredient listed, open the Bazaar and go to the item's page. Look at the current top buy order — the highest price someone is willing to pay. Place your own buy order at 0.1 coins above that price. This puts you at the front of the queue and means your order will fill before everyone else's.
Wait for your orders to fill
Buy orders fill when sellers place sell orders at or below your price. Popular items fill quickly; niche items can take longer. You can check progress in the Bazaar menu under Manage Orders.
Craft the item
Once all ingredient orders are filled and the items are in your inventory, craft the output item using a crafting table. The recipe is shown in the View recipe panel on the main page.
Place a sell order for the output
Open the crafted item on the Bazaar and look at the current cheapest sell order — the lowest price someone is willing to accept. Place your own sell order at 0.1 coins below that price. You're now first in the sell queue.
Collect your profit
When a buyer instant-buys or places a buy order at or above your price, your sell order fills and the coins land in your Bazaar collect box. The difference between what you paid for the ingredients and what you received for the crafted item is your profit — roughly the figure shown on the main page.
Things to keep in mind
- —Prices are live but orders take time. The profit figure is calculated from the current best order prices at the moment the page loaded. By the time your orders fill, prices may have moved. Refresh the page before committing to an opportunity.
- —Order slots are limited. You only have a certain number of Bazaar order slots. Running several arbitrage cycles in parallel is more efficient, but requires enough slots for all the ingredients.
- —Weekly volume is a liquidity signal. The Weekly Vol. column shows how many units of the crafted item trade per week. Low volume means your sell order could sit for a long time — even at a great margin. Prioritise high-volume items unless you're happy to wait.
- —This tool only covers single-stage crafting. It does not account for multi-step recipes where an ingredient itself needs to be crafted. The actual profit may differ if intermediate ingredients are not directly available on the Bazaar at the shown price.
