11Overview2233Starsand Island has 16 shops and vendors spread across Starsand Town, Green Meadow, and Half-Moon Bay. Most shops operate from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with a few exceptions: Marlo's Morning Delights closes at 11:00 AM, while Zerine's General Store, the Soluna Cafe Lodge, and the Newsstand stay open around the clock. Many blueprint purchases are gated behind profession certification tiers (Starter through Expert). Understanding how shops work, what they sell, and how to level them up is essential for progressing through the mid and late game.445566Shops in Starsand Island use a leveling system: buying out a shop's current stock causes that shop to restock with improved and expanded inventory. This means regularly purchasing items you need (and even items you do not immediately need) is the fastest way to unlock higher-tier goods. Some shops also change their available stock per season, rotating in seasonal items during Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.7788Shop Directory991010The following table provides a quick reference for every shop on the island, including the owner, location, and operating hours.11111212ShopOwnerLocationHoursGeneral StoreZerineStarsand Town, main road from farm24 hoursHappiness Seed ShopGraminovaStarsand Town, next to Ethereal Styles8:00 AM - 10:00 PMAureleaf KitchenAurelisStarsand Town, center of plaza8:00 AM - 10:00 PMEthereal StylesLunelleStarsand Town, south side of plaza8:00 AM - 10:00 PMBloom AtelierSerenaMaple Reed8:00 AM - 10:00 PMMarlo's Morning DelightsMarloStarsand Town, next to Ethereal Styles6:00 AM - 11:00 AMSoluna Cafe LodgeCharleneStarsand Town, across from Ethereal Styles24 hoursLex WoodworksAlexStarsand Town, lower portion8:00 AM - 10:00 PMSilvan NotesSylvainStarsand Town, near Lex Woodworks8:00 AM - 10:00 PMWoof & Wow PetsStellaMaple Reed8:00 AM - 10:00 PMChrono ArcadeLorenMaple Reed8:00 AM - 10:00 PMNewsstandVendorStarsand Town, across from General Store24 hoursGreen Pasture RanchPastelle, Bruce, GarrickGreen Meadow, northwest of Hopeland6:00 AM - 10:00 PMExploration ClubZephyriaGreen Meadow, north of Green Pasture Ranch8:00 AM - 10:00 PMAquaBlue OutpostDelphinHalf-Moon Bay, right side of docks8:00 AM - 10:00 PMG-Power BikeNeonaHalf-Moon Bay, main road8:00 AM - 10:00 PMMerchant ShipVisiting merchantStarsand Port docks8:00 AM - 10:00 PM (weekly)Community CenterSolaraStarsand Town, east side of plaza8:00 AM - 10:00 PM1313Starsand Town Shops14141515Zerine's General Store16161717Owner: Zerine (also the Crafting Profession Mentor).

The rental cost is minimal compared to walking everywhere.245245246246Starsand Port247247248248Merchant Ship249249250250Hours: 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Location: Docks at Starsand Port. Unlock: Requires completing Marston's Port Construction quest.251251252252A rotating vendor that visits for one week at a time and refreshes every Monday. The Merchant Ship sells rare items, but its main value is that it buys player goods at 200% of normal value. Limited quantities per item per week. This is the best money-making outlet in mid-to-late game: stockpile processed goods throughout the week and sell them all when the Merchant Ship refreshes on Monday.253253254254The ship's buy list changes weekly, so check what items are in demand each visit to maximize profits. The Merchant Ship also occasionally sells exclusive decorative items and rare materials that are not available from any other vendor. These items rotate with each weekly visit.255255256256Vending Machines257257258258In addition to the staffed shops, Starsand Island has vending machines located at bus stops across the island. These automated vendors are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and sell basic supplies including drinks, snacks, and simple crafting materials. Items are slightly more expensive than their shop equivalents, but the around-the-clock convenience makes them valuable during late-night exploration when all staffed shops (except Zerine's, Soluna Cafe Lodge, and the Newsstand) are closed.259259260260Bedroom Chest Mechanic261261262262At 3 affection hearts (370 affection points) with a shop owner, the door to their private bedroom unlocks automatically. You can enter anytime they are home. Each bedroom contains two special chests:263263264264Wooden chest (one-time): Contains exclusive furniture blueprints and decorative items unique to that character. For example, Zerine's chest contains tech blueprints, Delphin's yields rare fish bait, and Aurelis's provides a recipe blueprint.Blue-grey chest (weekly): Respawns every Monday with assorted items. The contents vary per NPC but generally include useful materials, furniture blueprints, and consumables. For example, Lunelle's chest at Ethereal Styles contains a Classic Bench Blueprint and Wooden Cloud Chair Blueprint.265265266266Building affection with shop owners is worthwhile for the relationship benefits and for the recurring weekly chest loot. Pair bedroom visits with your Monday Merchant Ship selling routine for maximum efficiency.267267268268Shopping Tips and Strategies269269270270Shop Leveling271271272272Every shop in Starsand Island can be leveled up by purchasing items. When you buy out a shop's current stock of a particular category, the shop restocks with expanded and improved inventory options. The key strategy is to buy everything available at your current tier, even items you do not immediately need, to trigger the restock and unlock higher-tier goods.273273274274Seasonal Stock Changes275275276276Several shops rotate their inventory based on the current in-game season. Ethereal Styles is the most prominent example, with seasonal clothing collections that change every 28 in-game days. The Happiness Seed Shop does not restrict seed availability by season (all seeds are available year-round), which is an exception to the seasonal pattern. Limited-time items associated with festivals and events (such as the Chinese New Year Festival and the Beach Festival) appear temporarily and are removed once the event ends.277277278278Currency and Selling279279280280Most shops accept Coins as payment. Two exceptions exist: Lex Woodworks has a Glowing Shell Exchange section using Glowing Shells as alternative currency, and the Chrono Arcade uses Tokens exclusively. For selling your own goods, the cash register at Zerine's General Store is the standard option. However, the Merchant Ship at Starsand Port pays 200% of the normal sell price, making it far more profitable. Plan your selling schedule around the Merchant Ship's weekly Monday refresh to maximize income.281281282282Restocking Mechanics283283284284A profession skill upgrade allows shop inventories to restock up to 3 times daily. Without this upgrade, shops restock once per day at opening time. The restock timer resets at the start of each in-game day. Consumable items like food, bait, and basic materials restock in the quantities listed in the tables above, but limited-stock items (rare blueprints, exclusive decorations) may take longer to reappear.285285286286Priority Purchases287287288288For new players, here is a suggested purchase priority:289289290290Equipment Blueprint Pack (free) from Zerine.

When the player reaches certain affection levels with a shop-owner NPC, related items inside that NPC's shop are sold to the player at discounted prices. The discount applies automatically whenever the favored NPC is on the counter and is reflected in the listed price the moment you open the shop interface.298298299299The discount applies to the items most associated with each NPC's specialty, not the entire shop catalog. Bulk consumables and unrelated decorative items typically remain at base price, while goods the NPC personally produces or curates pick up the discount. The system is therefore most rewarding when you build friendship with the NPC whose specialty matches your highest-volume purchases.300300301301Affected Counters302302303303Patch 0.4.9467 notes say the discount applies in "some shops." The candidate list below covers all NPC-operated counters; the 24-hour vending machines and rotating Merchant Ship have no NPC counter and therefore do not participate. Which counters specifically discount which items is still being mapped by the community.304304305305Starsand Town: Zerine (General Store), Graminova (Happiness Seed Shop), Aurelis (Aureleaf Kitchen), Lunelle (Ethereal Styles), Marlo (Marlo's Morning Delights), Charlene (Soluna Cafe Lodge), Alex (Lex Woodworks), Sylvain (Silvan Notes), Loren and Momo (Chrono Arcade).Maple Reed: Stella (Woof and Wow Pets), Serena (Bloom Atelier).Green Meadow: Pastelle, Bruce, and Garrick (Green Pasture Ranch); Zephyria (Exploration Club).Half-Moon Bay: Delphin (AquaBlue Outpost), Neona (G-Power Bike).306306307307How to Trigger the Discount308308309309Build affection. The discount is gated by the same affection counter that controls heart levels. Talk daily, gift loved or liked items, complete Bulletin Board requests, and finish quests involving the NPC.Visit during the NPC's shift. Multi-NPC counter behavior is not yet documented in patch notes. For shops with multiple staffed counters (Pastelle and Garrick at the Ranch, Loren and Momo at the Arcade), the rule for which NPC's affection drives the discount has not been confirmed.Stack with shop leveling. Affection Discounts apply to purchases that count toward leveling up shop inventories. Buying out a shop's stock to trigger a restock is now cheaper at higher friendship levels.Festival event windows. Affection Discounts and event-specific promotional discounts (such as during the Beach Festival) are tracked independently. The larger of the two discounts is applied at checkout; they do not stack additively.310310311311Players who already work through a daily greet-and-gift loop for romance or weekly bedroom-chest reasons get the Affection Discount as a side benefit at every shop they visit. Players who previously skipped friendship building for non-romanceable shop owners (Bruce, Garrick) now have a direct economic reason to invest in those friendships too.
