2488g and 700g on AH

Hello and welcome. I was trying to get some nasty errors with Auctioneer fixed this weekend without losing my data and I was able to pull it off. I had to buy a few things to get this week moving. Been having some luck lately by splitting big stacks of what I like to call "Buff Food". Essentially anything you can eat that will relplenish and buff you for well fed. Cook's post these items on the cheap and you can split them into 5's and get a significant amount of gold from it.

Also I want to re-visit the cosmic essence talks we were having. My server is still at a very low level. Are anyone elses starting to come down at this point? I could buy 10 for 69gold. Frozen orbs are holding pretty solid around 100g. I also noticed the arctic fur came down a lot. Did they increase the drop rate from skinning on these? Help me out in the comments.

2119g and 400g on AH (Idling for 3.1)

I did it. I broke the 2000g mark. I didn't get to spend the time buying on Monday night. With the patch I didn't want to invest significantly. Now that its out its time to start again. Markets should steady all over the board after about a week. Lack of purchasing and hot selling makes for no hotlist coldlist for the week.

1364g and Loaded Up

The weekend has been decent for sales. I got a few things sold that had been sticking around for a while. I had some [Scale of Onyxia] for almost two weeks that I finally got rid of. I would recommend staying away from those even if they are under priced. Also sold a [Swif Skyfire Diamond] for 96g. [Armor Kits] prove a consitant market exists as well. Referring back to an older post. I found out that buying flooded Chaos Deck cards does work out in the end. 30-80g profit per card isn't bad.

Great news! In mid-post here I had a guy who looked like he was unloading his GuildBank and didn't really care how much it went for. I'm down to 968g but i'm way over 2000g in potential AH sales after posting it. Just caught the right guy at the right time. I'll be sharing results with you all week as usual. Tomorrow night, I should have the hot/cold list ready.

945g and 1300+g on AH

Somethings are coming back and starting to move again. I unloaded a few [Armor Kits] and although [Frozen Orb] prices have plummeted they still move quickly if you can get them for a good price. I'm also having some new luck with level 60+ [Fish]. Seems like a lot of people will go out and fish a bunch of something and then post it cheap in stacks of 20. Buy it and stack fish in 5's. Works out well for me everytime. Lets hope we got something good going for the weekend.

827g and Feeling better, still 1000+g in stock

Some items i've had for a while finally sold over last night. 2 [Darkmoon Faire cards] sold at 50g+ profit and some [Lion's Ink] I picked up after work last night sold overnight. I made 30g on the ink. I wouldn't quite consider the market stable for a while yet. I'm thinking another 2 weeks should do us good. Meanwhile i'm going to try and stick to some smaller stuff that I have had some consistant luck with. Does anyone know if beancounter or some part of the auction sweet can breakdown quickest turn arounds?

Making headway - 627g and over 1000+g in stock

Monday night I went back to my roots a little. I know you are all like, how does he have roots he started this a month ago. LoL. I spent a total of 5g and picked up some [Herbs] and some inks. They promptly sold by last night. Those are the types of things I started with. They still move, imagine that. I found some strange reverse way to search the auction house for low buyout and actually beat the mobs of people playing the AH to the good items. Instead of using the search for buyout set your profit margin to 1g and click the bids allowed box and uncheck buyout. Then run your search after a fresh scan. At that point sort the list by buyout price. You'll find some amazing steals i'm sure. I know because I did. Now i'm using that search a lot.

Based on some comments I'm blaming my bad sales on Spring Break market flooding and everyone saving for DUAL SPEC. So for now, i'm going to hold some items in stock and wait for the market to stabalize. Now this wonderful comment poster #7 from the last blog entry informed us of this Spring Break phenomenon. My question is are there other times when the market gets flooded, or even better to know, does it ever dry up making prices good because of low stock? If anyone would share their thoughts on these times please feel free.

Due to crappy market conditions everything is on a coldlist this week. Sorry

I'm sad... 455g and way too much crap on AH

I have hit a brick wall. Nothing that was moving before is moving now. [Cut Gems] are even getting posted 30-40g under market. [Frozen Orb] has dropped considerably. I'm going to have to unload some stuff at serious losses. I'm going to have to rethink my strategy. I should be able to get about 1200g once everything is sold at loss. Or should I hang in there and keep reposting? The first 2 weeks went so well. Now it seems like nothing I buy can sell for anywhere near market price. I've also realized I need to write down what i'm paying for sutff in the trade channel. I'm losing grasp of my margins on some of my items this way. Calling for comments on commodity items that are still moving on your servers. Anyone?

470g and 2300+g in items for AH

Something is definately not following trend. My weekend sales were terrible. I have some stuff posted at or below my purchase price just to dump it and its not moving. I'm not going to buy anything new until most of my current lots are sold. I need to cap out my gold and really re-work the strategy to make this turn around again. I really feel like something is holding the market back. Whether it's patch incoming or nicer weather for the summer months and not as many people on, I don't know. I do know that this was easier in the beginning and the only thing i'm doing different is buying way more expensive stuff. Perhaps I need to scale back. IF anything sells by tonight, i'll post a hot/cold list. Otherwise the entire stock may just be a cold list by wednesday :(
