I can't just say, " Buy all of [ItemX] and resell it for higher then you baught it" Cuz that would be only limited in use and availability. The WOW AH is a fluid and ever changing environment. There are always going to be fluctuations so severe that to limit oneself to some static plan will in the end cost you a great deal of gold and time for little profit. <BR/><BR/>There is no secret to getting rich off the AH. It takes time. Even if you get lucky and get a rare/epic item/recipe, you are not going to automaticlly become a bazillionaire. Even selling these is heavily keyed on market demand and changes based on the populations age. <BR/><BR/>If you want gold right now, go buy some off a website, gl with that. I wrote this small excerp for myself and the few who genuinely have an interest in playng the market longterm and generating a steady income with minimal expence.I do however admit that I have neglected to update anything here with any new ideas i have learned since I wrote this. I will attempt to put down some other learned lessons sometime in the future.Mindkillerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11357248280940676834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27222521.post-20676659804160351762008-01-16T07:47:00.000-08:002008-01-16T07:47:00.000-08:00A good attempt at explaining the AH, but has faile...A good attempt at explaining the AH, but has failed to enlighten me, I already know all of this, and a lot more.

Most times it's used to give me breakdowns for item creations, but i doo hae a few pages of items I track if the prices change cnstantly. I don't use Auctioneer just be cause i trust my memory more. I keep several trends on different items in memory all the time. It updates everytime I check the AH for certain things. Same idea cept I can scan the AH in like 2 minutes for just the items I want. Another thing I can do better then the AH is I have archives ion my head going back 1 year so I can pridict certain trends with decent accuracies. Like some of the wihter items will be real profitable come say june/july whern the market has run out of them. I got stockpiles of xmas stuff on mules waiting for the market to rise. Pretty sure i can make 1000% profit on them. Also i don't need to be uprgraded every time they change the versions. As for the comlpexity ..yeah it can be. The only way to make it less so is to focus on a few items that are easy for you to track/farm for profit and not get bogged down by the sheer mass of the market.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27222521.post-25161331225147468462007-03-14T15:01:00.000-07:002007-03-14T15:01:00.000-07:00Great article on the AH mate.

Once I started using Auctioneer the notebook's been gathering dust, but on the other hand I don't have the control or grasp of the AH market as I did back then. Now I'm under Auctioneer's almost total control and rely on it wayyyyy more than I should, but my playing time doesn't allow me to effectively work the AH like I used to. Thanks for a great write up and gettin me thinking about all the intricacies the WoW AH economy has again. <BR/>JikkstaUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16783444803842695470noreply@blogger.com
