This guide tells you how to find the Traveling Merchant and access his wares in Roblox Prospecting.
When and where does the Traveling Merchant Spawn in Prospecting?

The Traveling Merchant appears every hour at the 45th minute on a server. This time is adjusted to your local time, meaning he'll spawn at 9:45 AM, 10:45 AM, 11:45 AM, and so on, according to your timezone.
The merchant can appear at any part of the map. Fortunately, whenever he does, a server-wide message is displayed on the screen that informs players about his whereabouts.

The Traveling Merchant stays on the server for 30 minutes. However, if all his wares are sold, he will disappear before that time. He operates on a first-come, first-served basis, so be sure to find him quickly before others do.
