Becoming a Master Merchant

From:[url=http://www.world-of-warcraft-gold.us]World of Warcraft Gold Free Guide">

This article is not written myself, but I think it could help others a lot. So let's check it:


Okay, I'm probably going to nerf the hell out of my strategy but I've been milking it enough I guess. :-) This takes what other people have said to a new level.

I have 6 characters so this is pretty easy for me. I have one character that just sits in front of the bank in Ironforge, which of course is right across from the auctionhouse and has a handy mailbox nearby.

Remember all of those supply vendors you pass by? Well look at their inventory and always check the last page. There's usually some limited supply recipes that you can buy. The ones that are in weird places are even better. The goblin in moonbrook sells rage potion recipes, there are 2 goblins in duskwood, the one on raven hill sells shadow oil recipes and the one on the road north out of duskwood sells goblin jumper cables. All of these recipes sell for 200-1000% profit in the auction house.

My biggest secret? I buy 5 different tuxedo patterns from the tailor in ironforge for around 40s each and turn around and sell them in the auction house for 2g or more! There are also 2 thorium recipes off of the engineer supplier in the gnome area that sells for pretty good. People are just lazy or don't know that vendors sell these recipes. Keep in mind they're all limited sell so if a recipe isn't there check back in 20 minutes.

I also have a night elf druid and when she good her port to moonvale I was in heaven. Port over to moonvale and buy the runecloth recipe from the tailer there. I can't remember which one but one of the recipes soulbinds to you so be careful. I think it was the boots recipe. Also in moonvale is the arcanite rod enchantement and some other high level recipes. All of them can be purchased for 1-2g and buyout in auction for 5-7g. Once you have your recipes hearthstone back to auberdine and drop them in the mail to your mule guy in front of the auction house.

Periodically while your other characters are doing their thing look up the nearest supply vendor and buy out their recipes. If you're always logging out in an Inn (which you should) this should be a piece of cake. If you have a character logged out in Darnassus, be sure to pick up the Greater Rage potion recipe, Free Action Potion, Martial Linnen Shirt and Greater Adapt Robe pattern.

If you do it right you should have about 20 auctions going at a time and it doesn't draw suscpicion like putting up 10 auctions all for the same item (a great way to kill your profits by the way). I make about 20-30 gold a day from about 30min work. The best part is you can do it at any level.

Some other good places for recipes, Ashenvale has a ton of good stuff at Astranar and that other post. You can get the expert cooking book and the big bear steak recipes (the bear recipes cost like 20s and you can sell it for 1g alot of times, and its unlimited supply). The Wetlands has a vendor in the middle of the map. Stormwind in the old town district has a pub and upstairs a guy sells about 20 different cooking recipes, many of the same ones you have to quest for.

I just paid $43 for 1000 Gold. I do quite often leatherwork rare stuff and sell it, but I need a lot of money soon for a mount and funky chain when I hit lev 40.

lol Scrappy how can you not afford a mount at 40 ? You should have loads of gold by then

Such a cheat spending money on gold, you can earn 50 a day easily

It's not worth buying armour etc until you hit 60

I don't have enough spare time to earn 50 gold a day when i'm earning money in a job to pay my rent If you work it out $43 is roughly two hours work for me. 2Hours - 1000 Gold. Or 200Hours earning gold in WoW.... makes sense to buy it no?

to be fair mate by the time your level40 you should have a good 70g behind you, unless its your first character then you probably wasted alot of gold on meaningless shit without knowing about mounts and so on

you can only get your character specific mount at 40 anyway, so you have no choice. The mount is 76 and riding is 14 making 90g

If you want a different mount for your race you have to get exalted with that factions home town to be able to ride it.

If you can find someone who is rank 3 in PVP they can get about 6g (I think) off the mount price for you, if you trust them enough to give them the money that is

keeping it around the 30g mark is pretty poor Scrappy You can earn a good 2g from Quests and about 10g from an SM run at your level, you should have loads of money. Much higher than 30. I had 35g at level 20 starting from scratch with no trade skills / selling.

That's because you're undead Jamsam. You can't be a tauren and ride on a horse because A) It'd look stupid and B) certain races can't ride certain mounts

Plus you've probably got a high rating with all the cities / factions in the game like I said. Something that at level 34 is nearly impossible

like i said check reputation part. exalted with all city factions (not UC tho seen as i didnt need it), altho ive played wow for a long time now so.

scrappy: anybody can get a profile, just go to allakazam.com, make account and set it up etc. matter of downloading a small Addon, loading into your character (so it can read everything you got), exitting the game, and clicking update on the program. just a matter of updating it then like weekly or whatever by clicking 'update'
