A guide showcasing my record of various port prices for goods (including supplies & fuel). Also includes barters & opportunities where I found them. PLEASE READ THE KEY/ LEGEND!
 
 

Introduction

Hello Delicious Friend!
 
 
This guide is a formal version of the record of Port prices I made whilst playing Sunless Sea. It includes prices for the base game ports (WIP) and also the Zubmariner DLC.
 
 
Please note:
 

• I haven’t quite finished this guide yet – still some trading areas to unlock & barter opportunities to find. Most of the S.A.Y.I.P. Opportunities are not included yet .
• The Key/ Legend is particularly useful – this list is informal notes and it will help you!
• It’s easiest to navigate this guide by pressing ‘CTRL + F’ (Windows) and typing in the name of the port or item you want. Abbreviations may cause them not to appear!

 
 
 

Key/ Legend

These were made as informal notes, and thus require some explanation:
 
 
The main ones I use are
 
“B” – “Buy”
 
“S” – “Sell”
 
A number (e.g. 20) – measured in echoes. Used in combination with “B” & “S” – E.g. Fuel B 10, S 2
 
 
In many ports I use “Harbour Provisioners” or “Harb Provis”. This is a place for fuel and supplies at extortionate prices, and is a set price – Fuel B 20 S 1 Supplies B 30 S 5. I would recommend only bothering if you are desperate for these.
 
 
Also “SAYIP” – refers to the quality of ‘Something Awaits You In Port’ (Yellow lamppost in bottom left), needed for opportunities in ports to occur.
 
 
General things to note:
 

• Where there is only “B” it means that there is no way to sell said item there.
• Other items are included in this list – mostly for specialised trades or barters.
• Where I have written “{Nooo!}” – reminder that this is a bad trade, or one that has consequences (in the case of the university in London).
• The use of items in combination as an equasion (for example 3 ambig eoltih = 1 extr implication) – shows a barter trade
• Many words are shortened (e.g. Supplies as “Supp”); should be easy to figure out however but bear in mind when using CTRL + F.
• Fuel and supplies are listed first and separately for each Port.
• Comments in “{}” are notes made by me, and relate to factors surrounding pricing of these items.
• “{Menu}” – Need to go through Journal/ Gazetteer to access
• Things will be listed in this order for each port: Fuel & Supplies – Items to buy – Noteworthy things to get/ Misc. – Barters/ other opportunities

 
Order in which ports are listed (See Map Below):
 

• Fallen London
• The West Coast
• The South Coast
• Near Home Waters (Yellow zone, see coloured map)
• The South-East (Green zone)
• The North East (Red zone)
