Firstly, you can use V-Bucks in the item shop to purchase cosmetic items that can be used to customize your character. These include a variety of skins, gliders, back bling, and more. Legendary skins are the most expensive of the bunch costing 2000 V-Bucks. This is followed by Epic, Rare and Uncommon skins which cost 1500, 1200, and 800 V-Bucks respectively.
While you can directly obtain the cosmetics you want using V-Bucks in the item shop, there are alternative methods that are more affordable. This comes in the form of the Fortnite Battle Pass. You will have to make a one-time payment of 900 V-Bucks to unlock the battle pass after which you will be entitled to a range of benefits.

Alternatively, if you have purchased the battle pass, you will earn a total of 1500 V-Bucks if you complete the battle pass. This can later be reinvested into the next seasons’ battle pass where you will earn another 1500 V-Bucks and so on and so forth.
Lastly, you can earn V-Bucks as part of an item shop bundle. These bundles will usually contain some cosmetic item like a themed skin and back bling but also offers players a certain amount of V-Bucks. Once again you will have to spend real cash if you wish to purchase these bundles.
