Vending Machines and Selling in Fright TrainGuide visual
Buying and selling keep the economy fluid.
Quick answer.
Vending machines are both a shop and a bailout tool. Buy only what stabilizes your next fight, and sell dead-weight loot before you become cash-poor and item-rich.
What to buy first
- Ammo that keeps your main weapon online.
- Cold support if the next route includes roof or outdoor time.
- Run-saving consumables, not comfort picks.
What to sell
Anything that is not helping your current loadout, next storm, or planned upgrade can become credits. Selling is especially strong after a loot-heavy segment that left your inventory messy.
Use selling to fix bad decisions fast
If you overbought, oversaved, or picked up awkward loot, the machine can turn that clutter back into a repair or ammo budget. Many runs are rescued by that conversion step.
