Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Sell Price Guide

Find out which items found in Animal Crossing: New Horizons (Switch) are worth selling, from the cheapest to the most expensive, or by type and category.

Both Nook's Cranny regular and drop-off box prices are listed, as well as Flick and C.J's.

We spent hours of research and gaming (learn about us here) to gather and organize the most comprehensive list of items you can collect and sell in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. This list is not only available as a useful sortable table, but as a remarkable collection of gameplay screenshots as well.

From those screenshots, we developed the ACNH Quotes iOS sticker pack for iMessage, available on the App Store, which lets you send the best catch quotes and puns found in the game to your friends and family.

Lastly, check out our unique and free custom designs! We started out by designing our own ACNH fruit tree labels to identify each tree, even when there's no fruit on them, and continued with other designs for fun.

ACNH Items & Prices

The table below contains all main resource items from the ACNH game on the Nintendo Switch. Not only fish, bugs and shells, but also fossils, DIY materials and fruits. Compare all items within different categories at once and, most importantly, find out how many bells you can get for each of them!

The table guide gives you 3 different sales prices:
  • Nook's Cranny prices — Your island's general store and the main way to sell your items. Nook's Cranny opening hours are from 8am to 10pm daily.
  • Drop-off box prices — Located outside and to the left of Nook's Cranny, the drop-off box is used to sell your items after hours, when the store is closed. There's a 20% process fee so your items sell for 80%. Dodo Airlines also offers a Liquidation service where you can sell items to Wilbur on Harv's Island for the same price you'd get from Nook's Cranny drop-off box.
  • Flick the chameleon and C.J. the beaver — They randomly visit your island and buy your insects (Flick) and fish (C.J.) for 50% more than Nook's Cranny price.

ACNH Items Sortable Price List

Click on the up & down arrows in the table to sort the items by price (Nook's Cranny prices, drop-off box prices, Flick's bug prices and C.J's fish prices) or alphabetically (by name, category, subcategory, or particularity).

Clicking once sorts the chosen column in ascending order — from the lowest to the highest price or from A to Z. The second click sorts its items in descending order — from the most expensive to the cheapest or from Z to A.

Please note: All prices are in Bells.

* You start the game with one of five types of fruit as your island's native fruit: Apples, cherries, oranges, peaches, or pears. Native fruits sell for 100 Bells and all others sell for 500.

Coconuts' sales price, in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, is always 250 Bells, which amounts to 200 if sold through Nook's Cranny drop-off box (→ there's a 20% process fee).

We're still missing a few prices. Help us out by leaving a message in the comment section below if you know them and we'll add them to the list!
