Nivalis Nights Where to Buy: Drink Machine, Seeds & Decor
The fastest way: search the journal
Press J, go to the vendors tab and search for the item (“ramen”, “sugar”, “drink machine”) or filter by vendor type. The journal lists every vendor you have already spoken to that sells it, where they are, and what they buy and sell for. Click one to see the full price list.
So the trick for anything you cannot find: talk to every vendor in each new district once. After that, the journal answers “where do I buy X” for you. It also tells you who buys an item for the most, for selling.
Where to buy common items
| Item | Vendor type | Where players found it cheapest or first |
|---|---|---|
| Drinks machine | Hardware vendor | Meridian Market (outer area) on day one, but marked up |
| Tablet menus (~150 lims) | Hardware vendor | Hive Mall |
| Farming modules (grow boxes, meat printers) | Hardware vendor | Any hardware vendor; one player recommends the port. Not the seed seller |
| Seeds, resin pellets | Seed vendor | Also free from trash bags, and 2-lim gacha machines in Central Canyon |
| Bar stools, chairs, tables | Venue furniture vendor | Meridian Market, opposite side from the food stalls |
| Decorations, paintings, lamps | Furniture vendors | Hive Mall, per players; Meridian Market is closer but pricier |
| Outdoor umbrellas | Venue furniture vendor | Hive Mall, second floor |
| Fridges and freezers | Furniture and appliance vendors | Hive Mall: industrial fridge (100 slots, a little over 400 lims) or advanced freezer (200 slots) |
| Kitchen equipment (grill, blender, food processor) | Appliance or hardware vendor | Hive Mall second floor early; later an appliance vendor that needs Trading level 8 and starts 20% off |
| Fishing rod | Fishing shops | Free rusty rod from Ady at the Docks; about 100 lims at the Stacks |
| Boat fuel | Refuelling stations | Most waterfront districts; one player found Mountain Town cheapest |
| Neon signs | Murti | Meridian Market |
| Vending machines | Hardware vendors | Unlock with higher skills; a 160-item refrigerated one exists |
Ingredients
Most raw ingredients are in the central area of Meridian Market: the butcher (chicken, meat), the greengrocer (onions, vegetables, ramen noodles), the farmer, the baker and the fishmonger. Prices there run about 7% above base, so players buy staples in Lowtown (about 2% under) or the Sewers (about 4% under) once those are open.
Ingredient availability changes daily. The morning news lists shortages and surpluses. If a vendor has run out (one vendor had only four packs of ramen on day one), check the journal for another.
Hard-to-find ingredients people ask about
Sugar, chocolate, cocoa powder, coffee beans and liquid nitrogen are frequent searches. Use the journal search after meeting the vendors in each district: these specialist items are spread across districts, and which vendor stocks them can change with shortages. We list exact vendors here once two players report the same one.
Selling
- Vendors have relationship tiers (shown as a letter, starting around C). Trading levels them up and improves their prices for you. Sell cheap items first to the vendor you will sell expensive items to.
- Fish sell for roughly half what the fishing screen shows.
- Rotten food sells for 0, but selling it clears space.
- Daily surpluses lower what vendors pay; shortages raise it.
Thanks. Mind the cameras on the way home.
