Wondering how to properly use the Black Market Contact Point in Escape From Duckov? Here’s a guide covering everything you need to know.

In Escape From Duckov, you can build a lot of buildings in your hideout, and one of the best ones is the Black Market Contact Point. It allows you to buy and sell ten random items, with a chance of selling for higher prices or buying for lower prices. Moreover, the Black Market is the best building to acquire new and unique weapons early on, which you can only obtain in late-game areas.
To help you out, here’s how you can obtain and upgrade the Black Market in Escape From Duckov.
How To Build Black Market in Escape From Duckov

To build the Black Market in Escape From Duckov, you have to first unlock the second region in the game, which is the Warehouse Area. This is because many Black Market building items appear very rarely as unique drops in the first region. That said, here is the crafting recipe for the Black Market Contact Point:
- 2x Black Market Contact Notes
- 1x Encrypted USB Drive
- 2x Walkie Talkie
- 2x uPhone
- 1x Tomsung
- 4x Cord
The Black Market Contact Notes are the hardest item to find on this list. The reason is that you can only obtain it from either Safes or Lockers, which you don’t have a lot of on the first map. Moreover, you have to be very lucky with the other items as well, as phones and the Walkie-Talkies are also pretty uncommon loot.
If you cannot find certain items, it is recommended to use the Dismantle feature at the workbench. You can then dismantle items like Graphics Cards to obtain some of the things you need to make the Black Market Contact Point. Once you build it, approach the Contact Point terminal to start trading.

Black Market Upgrade Tips in Escape From Duckov

The Black Market Contact Point has many upgrades you should prioritise when building it. Every few hours, you can refresh the trade screen when you are content with the trades you have made. However, the upgrades allow you to:
- Lower the time required to refresh.
- Stack multiple refreshes while you are not online.
All upgrades for the Black Market require Black Market Contact Notes, and the amount required increases with each upgrade. Therefore, it is highly recommended to loot and hold onto every Black Market Contact Notes you find when looting in the wild. If you are getting unlucky with the drops, you should unlock the Farm Town region and lower the difficulty to loot boss areas quickly for Black Market Contact Note drops.
