Marketplace (BTDB2)

"Generates money each round and adds it to your total. No fuss."

- BTD6 Description

 is the third upgrade of Path 3 for the Banana Farm in BTDB2. Unlike most other banana farm upgrades, it allows for automatic collection of all income generated during the round.

The tower generates 14 groups of bananas worth $40, giving it a net income each round of $560. This is overall a buff compared to BTD6, which had 16 bunches of bananas worth $20; however, the upgrade now lags behind in comparison to Banana Plantation, which produces more bananas but requires manual collection.

It costs $2900, and can be unlocked with 3,200 XP.

Summary
Marketplace is primarily useful for avoiding picking up bananas or waiting for a Monkey Bank to fill. Like most banana farms, it can be sold in an emergency to upgrade a tower, or can be sold for an all-out attack.

Tips

 * Since Marketplace sells for 80% of its value (because of Banana Salvage), a 2-0-3 marketplace will lose $1170 if bought and sold immediately. The time it takes it to be profitable to sell is 2 turns and 2 payments (as of 1.0.8).
 * Unlike BTD6, Marketplace makes less money than Banana Plantation. A 3-2-0 Banana Plantation makes $800/round and will pay off the cost of the entire tower in 8 rounds + 1 banana, while a 2-0-3 Marketplace makes $720 a round and will pay itself off after 8 rounds and 2 payments.
 * As of version 1.0.5, the top crosspath is more valuable, producing $720 a round compared to $700 for the middle crosspath.
