For example, you scroll through the pages of blue weapons and notice that several types have 2 to 6+ listings of the same weapon at different prices, then notice one that doesn't have any competition. When that happens simply look at the stats and the price. If the stats look especially good (for example the chain gang leggings have +117 to stamina... a very high, noticeable number but also comes with other decent stats too) then it is a likely candidate. Basically the first check is that the item isn't commonly seen with others like it in the AH. The second is that it has good stats and usually fetches a high price compared with other similar level items. You can always check the price immediately at allakhazam or wowhead. Then when you see the item next time, you can react if it's got potential for profit. Hi Mitch, fast sellers are usually non-crafted items that you’ll find just one listing of in the auction house.

I actually have overlooked deals in trade chat myself since I've been back so thanks for the reminder! Hi Sean, it’s definitely good to reiterate negotiating with people in trade.

I've netted about 5k gold since in the last couple weeks (since dumping 20k on the Tundra Mammoth) and have had success on higher level blue armor and weapons. I concentrate on world drop, rare items and recipes particularly jewelcrafting recipes. Unfortunately since the launch of the expansion the old world recipes have been slower to sell. I expect this will change when most people reach the cap and start leveling their professions again or taking up new ones. I've also flipped the odd stack of eternals or dream shards here and there as the opportunity has arisen. One thing that you have mentioned in the past and which ought to be emphasized here is the opportunity for deals in trade chat. People will utilize trade chat for quick sells and will often sell at 50% or less of the market price. I've made some of my biggest profits off of such deals. Never underestimate the allure of a quick buck; it can you rich if your patient. All good tips and indicative of my recent experience.
