ChestShop (iConomyChestShop)
Acrobot released his first Android game, would you mind giving it a go?
ChestShop
A simple, yet very powerful system for making physical shops using signs and chests.
It's never been that easy to create shops! With features like shop protection and anti-lag protection, you won't have to worry about your server's economy anymore!
"Just works"! ChestShop supports almost all economy plugins by using Vault!
(Versions above 3.9.2 also support economy plugins using the Reserve API)
Some known compatible and incompatible economy plugins.
Please check if there are newer development builds before reporting issues!
If you are upgrading from a previous version of ChestShop please make sure to always read the warnings in the file's changelog!
The plugin by default submits anonymous stats about your server (player count, plugin/server version and type) to a public statistics websites (mcstats.org and bstats.org) in order to provide the developers with usage information. If you wish to opt out, you can do so in the PluginMetrics/config.yml and bstats/config.yml files. It also features an auto-update feature, which can be turned off in the config.

How to create a shop
Player shop
Place a chest on the ground | |
Place a sign 1 block away from the chest (for example, above it) | |
On the sign, write: | ![]() |
Leave the first line empty. It will be automatically filled with your name by the plugin (if you have the permission ChestShop.admin then you can create shops with the names of other players) | |
Second line is the amount of items to buy or sell | |
Third line is a combination of buy and sell prices. You need to have a price indicator (like 'B' - price that will apply to items BOUGHT by PLAYERS - or 'S' - the SELL price) near the price - the prices are separated by a colon (:) |
Some of the possible price combinations: "B 5:5 S", "B 5", "S free" |
The forth line will hold the id/name of the item. Write ? on the sign and the item will be autofilled with the one from the chest or you can click on the sign with the item afterwards. Optionally you can put the actual name on it. You can find out the name of the item you're holding by doing /iteminfo |
|
Resulting Shop | ![]() |
A person can buy 64 diamonds for 10 dollars and sell them back for 5 dollars from Phoenix616 |
If you want you can also take a look at this video tutorial.
Admin Shop - shop with unlimited items
Firstly, you've got to be sure that you've the ChestShop.admin permission or that you are an OP. To make an Admin Shop, simply put "Admin Shop" (configurable in config.yml) on the first line of the sign when creating the shop. Admin Shops do not require a chest!

Random error popping up
Hi, I have a weird problem where `odd` players cannot make a chestshop , I have watched to ensure it is being done correctly and made them just sell 1 dirt etc , there are no errors in logs and they 110% have the correct perms as players in same group can make fine , this is only `odd` players and 99% it works fine. I have seen others report this issue too , I have read the database and they have correct uuid and everything looks as I would expect it , but when they create the sign it just creates a regular sign and doesn't interact with chestshop. Any ideas what could cause this , this is same on definitely 3 of my servers which have same thing , its almost not noticeable as its a small number of players , but very annoying for those players. Let me know what you think it could be.
I keep getting a bunch of these errors with v2.8.1 and Spigot 1.8 git-Spigot-c3c767f-33d5de3.
http://pastebin.com/uYaXhuuj
I am getting this error http://pastebin.com/1qtpbU3m when some of my players make chests. Not sure what it means.
Looks like there is lag of sorts with Minecraft 1.8.3 from Spigot just came out? Maybe make sure it did not break something? I have it working fine on 1.8.
I am using essentials for economy and when a players offline and i use there shop essentials creates a new user data as a NPC and the player that owns the shop gets nothing
This Is Whats In The File Essentials creates when the user is offline also i run my server in offline mode
"npc: true lastAccountName: blake money: '10.0'"
Awesome plugin!
@G182120
Seek out a staff member of your server and ask them to destroy the chest. Unless you have the 'ChestShop.mod' or 'ChestShop.admin' permission the only way is to seek the original owner of the chest and ask them to remove it. Hope i was of help
1.8.3 uses alot more cpu. Also it would be nice for when a player changes his name that his old shops either change to the new name or stop working to prevent money from going to thin air.
@G182120
Region for worldgaurd? There are some config settings to disable chestshop protection if protected externally or not have the chest self protect itself. Mess with a bunch of config settings. There is one to do that.
Need Help! When someone buys a region and places a chest shop and once that regions expires and the new owner comes in how do they destroy the chest that has the chest shop?
it says you don't have permission to do that - for the new owner of the region PLEASE HELP
I can't seem to be able to create lapis blocks or egg shops. with the latest chestshop, runing on 1.8 spigot.
Help!
I cannot make shops i can use /iteminfo however whenever i come to make shops it will not work i don't even get any notifications saying that it has been made or i cannot be made it just creates it as a normal sign....?????
Im not sure if i have a plugin that interferes with it? Do you know any plugins that will interfere with it?
@Bronzeteufel
+1 That event also lags my server. Very annoying, expecially when there are WE changes or Redstone interactions.
@Sparkz24
Thats an issue with your perm plugin.
http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150228/kqumwlul.png Hm, laggy since 3.8?
Is there a way to limit the amount of chestshops a player can create?
Thanks in advance
Found some problems where players changed their name, but their shop signs were gold, however they are able to use the chests, but the selling or buying goes to a balance of their old IGN, essentially their balance is not effected at all in the new name.
I had to change all the shop signs to their new IGN, then it worked.
So they had the perms to use the chest, but their balance did not update.
I got it! ChestShop gives an error if enchanted items to put into the hopper. http://pastebin.com/zfPHUGY9 Fix it please.
I believe I've discovered a bug with chestshop on spigot 1.8.
Using /iteminfo to obtain an id for things like fireworks, enchanted items, and books isn't working. The resulting chestshop always says its out of stock. It used to work before our upgrade to 1.8 (and our upgrade in chestshop versions). However, after the upgrade new chests created using this method always say "Out of stock", though the old ones still work strangely enough.
I'll be looking into this myself and if I find anything more I'll edit this post.
So I tracked the problem through spigot. The issue is when an ItemStack is generated from the id on the sign (the one from /iteminfo) the metadata is not 100% the same.
Specifically it appears the generated ItemStack (though I may have mixed up the generated ItemStack and the one in the inventory) has an NBTTag "repaircost" which is null, and that the one in the inventory has no such tag.
Since I was looking at this in the internals of craftbukkit, the tag specifically existed in the "Map<String, NBTBase> unhandledTags" of org.bukkit.craftbukkit.inventory.CraftMetaItem.java
This causes the generated item to not match the items in the chest since it fails comparison "&& (this.unhandledTags.equals(that.unhandledTags))" in boolean equalsCommon(CraftMetaItem that)
