Tips for AH pricing

Tips for AH pricing

Oneday, one of my friends said to me: he was selling stacks of Netherweave cloth at 2g a stack. I told him I would buy as many as I could. He had 100 stacks, I only had enuf room in my inventory to make 20 stacks of Heavy Netherweave Bandages at a time, so I bought as many as I could, made them, and sold them. Then I saw he was still advertising to sell them. I told him if he would wait, I would buy all of them. He patiently waited for me, and I bought them all from him. It took around half an hour to make that many bandages.

I have a confession to make: I've been playing the AH pretty hard for a few weeks now (ever since I started grinding up to the 5000g for my epic, and yes I got it finally), and I've come up with a lot of good tips for you guys, but I've kept them to myself, because I was selfish and didn't want my sources of gold to dry up. But now, I've got pretty much all the gold I need, and I'm ready to bring these to the world. Lots of you will already know what I'm going to say here (some of you might even be angry that I'm telling everyone), but for those of you who haven't found these little holes in the AH, here you go.

At first: level up your First Aid to 325 right now, because I've got three words for you: Heavy Netherweave Bandage. Think all that they'll do is heal you? Think again -- they vendor in the game for a whopping 6g per stack, so every time you log on your AH alt, the first thing you should do is run to the Auctioneer and buy up all the Netherweave cloth you can find for less than 3g -- crafted up into bandages, each stack of cloth is worth at least that, so anything you buy for less than 3g (I've seen it as low as 1g 50s -- people are throwing away money) is pure profit. This is the biggest moneymaker I've found (you don't make much per stack!
