Cancel Auctions with GOLD ID

[thadd]

Well, I me and my friend started to post a whole bunch of items on the auction house. With the 10 limit over time some items started to not sell, eventually this ended up meaning we were stuck with auctions that would not sell so we bought each others auction. Seeing there was no cancel button we started to search for items by stats and ect also it doesn't even show the name of the seller in the AH

This was really time consuming so we made a new method. This method is by creating a unique ID for your auction with the gold. For example, lets say you have a chest you wanna put on the auction house. Instead of posting the auction for 15,000 you should make a unique id you reuse such as 15,046 meaning your ID would be 46. This means you would search auctions not by stats but my gold putting the maximum buyout at 15,046 causing your auction to appear first. Of course over time if enough players started to use this method it would no longer work. However its a good way for the time being to create IDs for your auctions so your friends can quickly buy your auctions that do not sell.

it is a good idea, but keep in mind that there's a 15% AH cut on transactions, so you'll be losing 15% gold every time you do that

Cool "exploit"

This should be moved, its not an exploit, nor working as not inteneted. Its just having your friends buy your items.

By the way... you can buy your own auctions.... no need for friends to do it for you.

Just tried, but not working. Can't buy your own items
