This Polygon guide explains where to find Black Marketeers in Palworld, special NPCs who sell rarer Pals than standard merchants for in-game currency. Unlike regular traders, these vendors can also be captured and relocated to a player's base, where they will continue selling Pals and can have their stock refreshed instantly by depositing and withdrawing them from storage. The guide matters to players seeking to expand their Pal collections efficiently, as it consolidates the locations of these otherwise hard-to-find characters.

The article notes there are numerous Black Marketeers scattered across the map, but highlights 13 that are easily reachable via nearby fast travel points, including sites such as the Desolate Church/Abandoned Mineshaft, Sealed Realm of Frozen Wings, Mount Flopie Summit, Duneshelter and the Eastern Wild Island. It warns that these NPCs are tough to capture, typically level 40 or 45, so players should bring advanced Pal spheres and weapons if attempting to catch rather than just trade with them. The guide, updated on 16 July to include new locations added in the Palworld 1.0 release, provides specific directional instructions and coordinates for each site.
