What 30k buys v2

Well i dident mention it here but i took a 4 day break as my WoW time ran out, and i was happy to finish up school and play another game i just bought.

Ok well to sum up my patch day experences, i made 30k over 72 hours. Well i pulled in 30k, having a total of 50k gold in cash. I decided today i was going to cut back on my WoW gold making and spend more time leveling my new druid (23 atm).

So i was thinking about what to spend my gold on and decovered the WoW fourms trading card section, its very server based but i think you should check it out:

http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/board.html?forumId=26146637&sid=1

So anyway after checking that to possibly get another TCG mount i found that mounts were in the range of 50-90k and the flying/tigers were 130-200k.

So today i log on, pvp with my rogue come to org, que up for the random daily battle ground (not once but twice, as i afk'd for a min and it went off) and as soon as i get out, i see in trade.

WTS Rooster Egg 30k

I wispered the guy and it took a few mins for a reply, said he was sifting through all the 200g offers. So i met with the guy and payed up.

I glad i bought this, and now i feel i have a somewhat 'collection' of TCG mounts (2). So this has kind of sparked me to make more gold, feeling the hole in my pocket where a rather large bump is now gone. I was really glad with the price since people on the fourm were selling at 50-80k so i think it was a steal, no regrets.

I am currently unsure for my future plans/goals gold wise to get to before cata. Currently im sitting at just below 20k gold.

48 hour aftermath

Well this time 2 days ago i had loged on as soon as servers were up and was ready to post.

Above is the starting cash i had, Refer to this link below as to what my items were pre-patch.

http://badspler.blogspot.com/2010/03/pictures.html

Yes i did have a few more but you get the idea.

Well iv loved these explosive sales, somthing i havnt had before.

A few kinda of but not as related stories.

First was yesterday, someone selling the Toad pet patten was advertising in trade, i instantly sent a 700g offer, he accepted. I said to come to UC. He then said that he would advetise a little longer and see if he could get a better offer, he did, 850g. I said i pay 900, i was readded to group with another fella there. He said to do a /roll and the highest he would sell to. The other guy rolled a 80 or somthing but i decided to roll 1-10000000 to be sure to win (allmost sure), i sated that i had rolled higher and had won, and that a deal was a deal, for the second time. He then said that he was just going to sell to the other guy, so i offered 1000g, the result was that the other guy was kicked. I told him to wait where he was as i logged over, i wispered him and made him wait a few mins as i pissed about on the AH. This is what followed:

I was glad i nocked 300g off the price, this is what i was hoping would happen from the moment i offered 1k. What do you think of this fella?

sucker...

edit: turns out it was my mate quitting thanks Sal!!

The second thing happened an hour ago, i woke up to a full mailbox, well 30 crates full of runecloth, from some unknown person in my mail, this was a total of 6000 cloth, a good 300 stacks! They wernt CoD'd there was no message, they were just there. So i mailed them off to sit in an alts mailbox for the mean time. What do you think? It's over 1kg worth of cloth, should i send it back or just keep it?

Just a pic of my rogues 80 moment:

Saronite ore farmer

Just to clear things up with my tiger, it's only the 60% speed version. I still love it, being one of 3 people on my server is a really cool thing to know.

I'm sitting just below 20k gold at this point, but I have been buying tons, and tons of stuff that I feel will increase in price or for useing. Currently I'm investing alot into saronite ore and lichbloom aswell as gold clover, items used to make the bop pets that are changing to boe, also I am buying up eternals mainly earth to use with my ore. Keeping an eye on flasks and frost lotus.

So about this farmer iv found, yesterday he wispered me (good start), he wanted to sell saronite ore, said 100 stacks so I sent my money from spler to badspler to trade, wisely sending three times the amount needed. Turned out he had alot closer to 200 stacks. He spoke much better but still broken english. I told him he could sell to me any time he wanted and to add me to friends. Today I loged stright onto Bad to finding him next to me, I asked if he had more, he did. So after 75 more stacks and 5 stacks of eternal earth I left pleased, again saying to sell at anytime. He said he would be on at a Cretan time server time the next day, though I couldent make it, and told him this, he said no problem I'll CoD. So I'm looking forward to tomorrow to see if I have some waiting, oh I'm buying 13g a stack so I can always smith and vender for 50 silver a stack loss.

In other news I have powered out my rouge from 74-76. Epic flying has helped a ton. Looking forward to hitting 80.

Busy week will be playing alot less for this week.

Sorry i havent been posting...

I have been busy, its nearly back to the old grind, this means that i might post every two days or weekly. Mainly i have been crafting alot of glyphs to post, i have just bumped them up to 40g ea. Been spending alot of gold on my new plan aswell.

Ill post some non - me related things in the up coming days i think.

Badspler Rides Black

Sorry for the late post, for the 3rd time to. No major things trading wise happened, I as mainly putting arrows on the AH to sell.

The reason the post dident get out untill morning today, was i decided to start a OS 3D run with 4 other members of my guild and some PuG'd people.

We were a solid group, we had about 8-10 wipes before we mannaged to pull it off.

This was an achivment and title i have wanted to get for a long time, and even better i won the roll on the black drake.
I was offered 5k gold by someone, i had offered the guildys in group 3k over vent. But i decided to keep the drake for my self. Now all i need is for blizz to remove it from game when the xpak comes out.

So would you trade away the drake for 5k? Pay 5k to someone for it? Tell us what you think.

not a big day

not a lot happened today

I did craft a good smack of my glyphs, ill finish the rest of my crafting tomorrow. I couldnt get into dal without disconecting to trade inks into the lower ones. Why am i crafting so many? Two reasons:

1 I am crafting all the glyphs to crash that i dont have.

2 I am replacing the glyphs that are selling well, in this case all of them, because of there price.

I did mannage to get some lucky guy to make me 500 stacks of arrows. Yay for offloading eternals. I diden't have time to post last night because i finaly found someone to craft me these arrows, none of the crafters want to make arrows for others, since the sales are so good.

Beating up glyphs.

Edit: pics are up now as you can see

As you can see i have spent alot of money, about 6-7k gold today.

Today i started preparing, preparing on crashing glyph prices, i also talked to another glyph trader, lets call him/her Mr X for now, this just makes writing things easyer. So i talked to Mr X, saying that i was going to crash prices, down to about 3g. I told him my aim: to get compedators to leave the market. I explaned how it would work and asked for interest, our convo was cut short before asking the final, "are you in or out" question, but it seamed promising.

Later I saw that our little friend who has been trying to monoplise the eternal water and shadow markets dumped all of his eternals, I knew this would be coming, he has paniced at losing gold, so he dumped his stuff to try to recover his money he invested, don't fall for this trap! Be sure before you enter a market that you know everything, don't get cought out. Know how the eternal market works before buying it all up!

Now since i have been milling alot of herbs, i decided to get my act togeather and made myself this easy to make macro:

Now its easy to make ( just spell the names right unlike the pic >_< ) and it speeds up milling by loads! One thing iv learnt is to use your time well. I also only craft and mill inks in low pop places, like out side of org to save time on lag, it adds up.

Is there anything you do to save time? If so post a comment.

30,000 reset raiders dumped badges

Well thats right i broke 30k, tho i kinda cheated.

You may see from the pic above that all of my toons are now at about 50g and Spler is now at 32k, i have decided to do a reset. This is because most of my toons were no longer doing any trading (for the mean time) so to keep better track of my proffits, i have 'pooled' all of my money on Spler. This will also allow you my audience to see better where money is growing and shrinking at.

Well i sold that ore i bought from Mr farmer, i found out that hes very chinise, I sent some chinise phrasies to him, got some responces that i dident understand, was rather fail. He(/she?) got really panic like and was logging on/off for 5 mins, then hasnt loged on since, might of blown my chance.

Well i have given up on raiding ICC, thats it im not even going to bother to look for a guild to try, more time to be spent with the AH. So with this in mind, i went in and traded all my badges into premodial sarronite, and my trumph badges into epic gems (6).

I mannaged to sell all of this, about 4400g worth, thats what really bumped my money up.

So what do you think, is trading badges for money worth it?

Otherwise its been a short day, sundays will always be short posts because of RL, while monday will normly make up for it with the weekly crash.

Farmer identified.

Well ill write today backwards i think:

Well i found a farmer 30mins ago, broken english, spaming in trade selling player farmed items. Barging prices was fun, and cheep as to! I mannaged to pick this guy up just because i had seen his name in trade ALL DAY, i mean like in the morning, noon and near (my) midnight. So here was our convo:

So i spent 1600g on ore like stuff, going to mostly flip it, sarronite into bars for more Belts. I felt bad for the poor guy, trying to get his quota for the day so he could go home, loged off as soon as we had finished the last trade.

(pic from morning before majour sales, all stacks on AH sold (51 stacks))

Well i ran out of arrows, that took one night and one day, 150 stacks of arrows. Noting that i sold most of mine at 9g i made 900g profit!!! yay! I NEED to find someone who i can get to craft these offten! I need Millions of arrows stored to be sold! The proffit margins are so large!

Hes still doing it:

This guys made me alot of money, ill look at my been counter tomorrow and find out how much, at least 500g maybe 1k? I Could of made more but id used alot of my eternals into belts.

Earlyer i had some belts made, 80 of them, thats because i sold all 30 of mine :) yay profit! Planning on also finding someone to constanly make these for me!

Lastly id like to mention that i finaly sold the last of my neatherweve bags. Although i was selling 20 a day, the proffit margin is very small, like glyphs. I don't think i will be carring on with this market, i was planning on destroying the comperstion to show how to gain a monopoly but its just not worth my time i feel.

I feel currently that i have my finger in many pies, any suggestions on any other pies i should take a slice of?

Keep the 'CoD'?

Well well crafted alot today, good to see sales coming in my mail box again.

Started off with some light amour vallume crafting, made a nice 450 bunch to slowly sell.
I also found someone selling some sarronite bars prity cheap ( 30g a stack) now i know thats = to 15g a stack of sarronite ore, but thats + time spent sifting it out buying it and getting it smelted, so im happy buying it at 30g a stack rather than getting it a little cheeper for alot more time. It was good he was also a blacksmith to.

Now after buying the eternal shadow for the belt making, i notaced that this fella was monopolising the market of all eternals, silly move, to much supply, also don't also sell stacks of what your montoplieing cheeper than singles.

Wonder if he knew he was paying 5g to buy his own shadows back?

Now i was thinking about this one for awhile, I know that this would be a very topical... topic. If i was to send a 'CoD' out after talking and aranging the price with my buyer. Then after relised that i had not 'CoD'd it but just sent the items off, would you expect i expect to get them back? For them to honestly send me money for them back? No i wouldn't, if i sent items away for free, thats my mistake, my falt, my loss. AH trading is solo, unlike a raid where you have 24/9 other players that can 'recover' from a mistake you make. By making this mistake i would learn to be more careful. So why should i give back items if people send them to ME for free?

Give an honest answer to this that last question. Just think, a simler instance, 100g worth of items/money send to you for free. Post a comment.

Now i have also notaced that my glyphs are selling, while there not undercutt, and there only not undercutt for about 30mins, in which i can sell about 5-8 glyphs. Thats about 50-70g profit, for logging on to two toons, cansling, collecting mail and then reposting (5-15mins). Grrr, ill have to find away around this, im not planing on 'camping' all day long to sell my glyphs.

Lastly heres what my bags on Spler that i ended on at the days end. I have decided to pick up some etenals (1000g worth in pic), these will be used in crafting more belts ore fliped(resold for higher prices).

For better, for worse

Short post, 2 parts
Today I branched into a new market, a small market, but a new one at least. First i have been stockpiling some neatherweave cloth. Today i got a friend of a friend to make it all into bags, 160 bags >_<. Thats alot of crafting. 150g tip, one for each bag (nearly).

They sold quick to (about 10)!

As i kind of mentiond before, im thinking about leaving my guild, this always seams to be on my mind, as much as i want to stay settled i always feeling like im moving, even if its 5 months apart. I feel like its good at first, and then turns bad. This normly happeneds after a month or two, i then spend 3 months thinking about leaving then moving on. This is month two.


As much as you want to hear me moan about why i am going to leave (please note that this blog is my diary of what I am doing, not do X to make money but I am doing X heres my results), i just wanted to pose the question that i keep asking my self:


At what point is it best to leave a guild rather than stay?

short day.

Short day today.

Not a lot happened, havnt been selling to much reciently. Trying to decide what i should use my inks on, valumes or glyphs? post a comment. Well im going to do some of both i think, might make a stash of valumes.

I have also been looking into getting other people (with professions i dont have) to make me a ton of somthing for me to sell, mainly eternal belt buckles (any other idea's?).

Also started working on my snatch list, trying to get it sorted so i can search better.

Short day for me, espicaly with restart.

weekly crash = milling monday

Wow may i say that i have never seen lichbloom before 15g! With no one snatching (need to setup snatch tool) But wow did i snatch alot of low priced herbs.

Here is yesterdays daily money, got this as soon as i loged in (before collecting)

And todays finishing results:

Well here is an update (before todays milling) of Spler's bank tabs

These herbs showns current value is:

92 x 16g = 1472 -adders tounge

129 x 18g = 2322 -icethorn

156 x 20g = 3120 - lichbloom (selling price at what i bought at not possibe 25-30g prices)

24 x 12g = 348 - tiger lilly

Total: 7,262g

Thats alot of money in herbs :)

After i milled all of tab 2 and most of tab 4 (exculding the lichbloom)

(this also includes some inks i alread had)

B-B-BACK!

Well im back.

Again i forgot the daily money pic, getting back into the swing hurts as much as the sunburn on my back.

Starting off, Lichbloom prices have changed a little, now at 20g, yay :) cheeper crafting prices for flasks.

While this has happened, frost lotus has taken the toll with prices increasing to +100g, it will come down, but what to?

I decided i needed a new tab on Spler, so i payed 1000g for my 4th tab.

I mannaged to pick some dirt cheep eternal earth. I turned it into rings and DE'd for a profit while selling all on Kwii.

Kwii mannaged to sell 957 of his 1000 singler arrows. LOL! Gave me a good laugh while i afk mail collected knowing that someone spent alot of time buying/mail getting them all!

Glyphs dident change. No drop, seams like theres even more people in market now.

----

In a personal note, i have decided that if i do not get into a raiding team soon i will leave my guild and most likly go solo or join an X guild that just chats and dosn't raid. To much stress wanting to raid in a raiding guild.
