The black market refers to illegal trade outside the official economy. Both humans and several Covenant species are known to engage in black market activities.
Black market bazaars are locations where illegal products can be handled on the black market by either pirates or Insurrectionists, who frequently attend these bazaars. A black market bazaar was spotted in November of 2525 near the Roosevelt Military Base, which was taken down by SPARTAN-II Blue Team.[1] During the Human-Covenant War, Covenant weaponry modified for human uses was sold on the black market.[2]
Among the Covenant, the Kig-Yar are known to sell goods on the black market, including Forerunner relics, outside the Ministry of Tranquility's authority.[3]
Following the Human-Covenant War the black market was inundated with small arms, including the MA5C assault rifle.[4]
