Selling models?

Not really a good category to put this

Hey! I’m lexishh, and I’ve been making UI for two months and have made many models. I’ve just finished a model, how would I go about selling it on roblox or other sites, without breaking the rules?

I don’t care which way I would sell it, robux, irl money etc.

Thanks in advance.

Maybe sell services instead of goods? :slight_smile:

Pretty sure that it is against the rules either way. Not completely sure though.

Also maybe put this in game design category.

I’ll put this in the game design category, if it’s against the rules, I’m not going to do it.

Making transactions for Roblox off-site is definitely against the rules. There are no official ways on Roblox to sell goods so you really shouldn’t do it. The asset marketplace category on devforums was removed too.

Mixed answers lol, I don’t want to break any rules but I’m eager to sell my model, although I doubt @Aotrou would say that it’s allowed if it was wasn’t. I think roblox should elaborate on this.

yes I was just about to say that lol

I don’t really know the answer, but if you really want to go into it I would contact Roblox, and make sure you don’t get terminated.

The rules on Roblox aren’t exhaustive, they aren’t going to point out every minor detail that is or isn’t allowed.

That post is also over a year old.

I think you are better off selling your services as a UI designer or modeler or whatever you do rather than selling pre-made goods. That means you are making products tailored to the specific needs of whoever hires you, instead of you having to guess what everyone likes just so you can guarantee a purchase.

I’ll probably just make it a free model then, thanks for the reply

Question–would anyone be interested if there was some sort of “unofficial” Roblox Developer Marketplace?

Maybe we could use this to sell stuff?

I would most definitely interested, there used to be one called rbxTech, it silently stopped working however.

I might look into doing something like this to be honest.

That would be great, but many communities (HiddenDevs, for example) choose to get rid of selling assets due to sealing and scamming. If this were to be made on Roblox, that would be a huge risk, so some kind of moderation would be needed, and if there’s one thing Roblox doesn’t meet par with, it’s moderation. Looking at the clothing market, you can see a great example of this happening. Selling assets would have a much bigger effect on the platform and would be a much bigger risk.

I’m sure there are possible ways to make sure that those kinds of things don’t happen, it’s just not on my mind right now. The idea is formulated now it’s time to address any external problems. I’ll think about it.

Well, good luck with whatever you come up with. I’d love to see something like this actually work, it would help out smaller developers a lot.

Potentially Ted could hire a few people that would act as middlemen for the transactions. This would be an easier and more reliable way of stopping scams

I agree, can’t wait to see this in action.

Well, I am pretty sure you cant sell models but, the GRP community (Group Recruitment Plaza) is making this thing called “Asset Exchange” where you can sell your assets or trade them with somoene elses assets.

And I am pretty sure there are lots of discord servers which let you sell your stuff, especially in Ro-Aviation.
