You can buy ship parts in Starfield in two different senses:

  1. consumable “Ship Parts” (for repairing your hull mid‑flight), and
  2. ship modules (cockpits, bays, guns, etc.) from ship vendors.

Below is a quick, SEO‑friendly guide you can use as a post titled “Starfield where to buy ship parts”, with headings, bullets, and a short story‑style tone.

Starfield – Where To Buy Ship Parts

Quick Scoop

If your ship is limping after a bad dogfight or you’re chasing a sleek new cockpit, you’ll be dealing with two things in Starfield: repair Ship Parts and modular ship components.

Ship Parts (Repair Items): Where To Buy

These are the consumable items simply called “Ship Parts”, used to repair hull damage over time.

What Ship Parts Do

  • Used to repair your spaceship’s hull during or after combat.
  • A single Ship Part repairs about 40% of your hull over several seconds.

Where You Can Buy Ship Parts

You don’t need to hunt a specific staryard for these; they’re sold in many general stores and trading posts.

Some reliable shops:

  • Jemison Mercantile – New Atlantis, Jemison, Alpha Centauri.
  • UC Distribution Center – New Atlantis, Jemison.
  • Newill’s Goods – Neon, Volii Alpha.
  • Sieghart’s Outfitters – Neon, Volii Alpha.
  • Shepherd’s General Store – Akila City, Akila, Cheyenne.
  • UC Exchange – Cydonia, Mars, Sol.
  • Trade Authority kiosks (in most major spaceports).
  • Trade Authority merchant ships and full stores.

They’re heavy (weight 10), so they usually appear near the top of a vendor’s Aid or Misc list.

Other Ways To Get Ship Parts

  • Random drops from destroyed enemy ships.
  • Rewards for helping UC SysDef or Freestar Collective ships in space encounters.

Mini-story:
You limp out of a pirate ambush with 12% hull. Instead of burning fast‑travel time, you dock at New Atlantis, sprint to Jemison Mercantile, buy a stack of Ship Parts, and patch the ship right there on the landing pad before heading back out.

Where To Buy Ship Modules & Unique Parts

If by “ship parts” you mean actual modules—cockpits, engines, bays, landing gear, etc.—you get those from Ship Services Technicians and manufacturer‑specific shipyards.

How To Access Ship Modules

  • Talk to any Ship Services Technician at a spaceport landing pad.
  • Choose the option to modify your ship, then open Ship Builder.
  • Use the Add function (keyboard default: G) to see all modules that vendor can sell.

Different vendors show different catalogs, often tied to a manufacturer.

Major General Ship Vendors

These are easy early‑game places to buy and swap common parts:

  • New Atlantis – Jemison, Alpha Centauri (Ship Services at the spaceport).
  • Gagarin Landing – Gagarin, Alpha Centauri.
  • Cydonia – Mars, Sol.
  • New Homestead – Titan, Sol.
  • Akila City – Akila, Cheyenne.
  • Neon – Volii Alpha, Volii system.
  • Red Mile – Porrima III, Porrima system.
  • Paradiso – Porrima II, Porrima system.
  • The Den – Chthonia orbit, Wolf system.
  • The Key – Suvorov, Kryx system (after progress in Crimson Fleet questline).

These locations sell a broad selection of standard parts and a handful of nice upgrades.

Manufacturer Shipyards (For Unique Ship Parts)

Many of the coolest “where did you get that?” pieces are locked to specific manufacturer staryards and cities.

Here’s a focused table you can drop into your article:

A few extra forum‑style nuggets you can reference:

  • Some unique bridges and habs (like Overseer Bridge, Kon Tiki series, Cabot Bridge, Ares Bridge) are manufacturer‑locked and city‑specific.
  • Players often build an outpost landing pad with Ship Builder so they can access most parts in one place, though a few location‑locked items still require visiting the original manufacturer.

Quick Tips & Mini-Checklist

“I just want to fix my ship and grab some cool parts. What’s the fastest route?”

  1. For emergency repairs
    • Dock at any big city (New Atlantis, Neon, Akila).
 * Hit the main general store or a Trade Authority kiosk and buy a stack of Ship Parts.
  1. For basic upgrades
    • Talk to the Ship Services Technician at the local spaceport.
 * Open Ship Builder → Add parts from their catalog.
  1. For unique or aesthetic builds
    • Tour the manufacturer hubs: Deimos Staryard, Stroud-Eklund Staryard, Hopetown, Neon’s Taiyo, New Homestead, and The Key.
 * Check each ship dealer’s catalog; many players keep a list or Reddit reference handy for specific parts.

Bottom TL;DR for Your Post

  • “Ship Parts” (the repair item) are sold at most general stores and Trade Authority locations, and also drop from combat or faction encounters.
  • Ship modules (cockpits, bays, engines) are bought via Ship Services Technicians and manufacturer staryards scattered across the settled systems.
  • For the rare and stylish stuff, you’ll want Deimos, Stroud-Eklund, HopeTech, Nova Galactic, Taiyo, and pirate vendors like The Key.
