On the main server I’m experimenting with, the market is finally starting to react with fairly predictable results. The most interesting is that while I had a slow period for about a week where I was always at +1k-2k gold net profit and had more inventory in the auction house, suddenly I find myself in [...]

So how are others faring in the auction house in the expansion’s infancy? For me, the server has cooled down a bit, with Celwyn still at around 1500g above what he started out with and about 3k in the auction house. I’ve had to lower prices a bit on some items due to competition.

If anyone has a soft towel, may I borrow it to wipe my rose-colored glasses off for a minute? What was looking extremely positive as of the last post has come to, for the most part, a now steeper path of ascent.

As it had been a few months since I’ve logged on to check the auction house, my big question going in was, “Is it much different than before?”

I apologize for the length of absence but I had taken a leave due mainly to our baby son, the workload at my other job, and awaiting the arrival of the Lich King. Now that it has come, I’m actually sitting here installing it and cannot wait to begin seeing new items in the AH.

I realize this site is barely off the ground but there are already a lot of tips and I’m ready to get started. I’m thinking of perhaps doing a podcast or just posts on my progress to 1000g from absolutely nothing, with no help, and NO add on. But first I need a [...]

Sure, they have more money than you, but it doesn’t matter… at least for me it didn’t. I didn’t want to be like them, was, and is willing to negotiate almost anything, and enjoy being honorable much more than infamous. Different strokes…. Yes, I realize I may be able to make more the other way, [...]

What does the new auction house mean to the economy in World of Warcraft? Released in the 2.3 patch, the auction house has received a number of improvements which allow for easier searching, different durations (12, 24, 48), smaller deposits due to this, and many more specific categories. Herbs, metals & stone, pets, holiday items, [...]
