Traders are representatives at Trading Locations that are willing to barter most items at different prices than their base values. A partially-complete table of those value modifiers grouped by trading location can be found below. Traders can be found at Caravans, Villages, Missions, Shaman Huts, Polar Stations.

Trading Caravans are the only trading location type which buys jewels and hunting trophies for an increased value. This can make them a powerful means to greatly increase the net value of your items.

For every 15 value you donate to a village, your standing in that region goes up by 1, up to a maximum of 10.

It sometimes makes sense to trade for weightless items such as animal teeth, pendulums, or tome pages - even at an increased price - to free up inventory space without having to dump valuable items.
