ROB RUN Collections Guide: How the Collection Table Works
Selling stolen items to the Fence one at a time leaves money on the table. The Collection Table lets you pack matching items into a set, and a finished set becomes a Collection Crate worth more than the items sold on their own.
What you need
The Collection Table sits on your base, so you need a house and plot first. Unlock it in the Shipments tree and buy it on your base laptop: research $5,000, price $15,000, tier I.
How to complete a collection
Find the items. Anything your current collections need is marked with a special icon in your inventory, so you can spot it while you loot.
Put them in the table. Each tab on the table is a collection and shows what is still missing.
Pack it. When every item is in, press Pack. A Collection Crate appears on the table.
Sell the crate. The crate is cargo: carry it to the Smuggler. Drawing a weapon drops it, and the Police can seize it. The payout rises with your criminal level.
Stuck on a collection? The table can refresh a collection for a new one, then has to wait before you can refresh again.
Unlocking more collections
At first the table only offers the basic collections. Upgrade documents unlock the rest, in order.
Upgrade | Unlocks | Research | Price | Tier | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Basic (comes with the table) | 7 basic collections | — | — | — | |
 | 7 more collections | $25,000 | $34,000 | I | |
 | 10 special collections | $50,000 | $100,000 | II | |
 | 10 unique collections | $100,000 | $250,000 | III |
That is 34 collections in all. Crates come in several grades, from the basic Collection Crate up to the Rare and Unique Collection Crates, which sell for the most.
What to look for
Collections use items you loot around Looty Bay, and the table shows exactly which ones each set needs. Collectibles like these are typical finds:
Search any item in the ROB RUN database to see where it drops, and use the loot layers on the Looty Bay map to find the buildings that hold it.
Is it worth it?
Yes, once you have a base. Early on, sell to the Fence for quick cash. Once the table is down, hold on to anything marked for a collection instead of fencing it, and keep the crate trip short: a crate is cargo, and losing it to the Police loses the whole set.
