AH Bid Scam

[eltales]

Hey there,

I did this trick many times and it works.
Ask your friend(or use your 2nd acc) to put on ah something worth ~10g(or more) without buyout for 50s.
People gonna bid it.
Sometime happens that people are spamming "bid" button.
When you'll get someone on that put your price fastly!
If this work someone gonna give you much more than this item is worth.

I hope you like it and it haven't been posted yet.

Why would someone spam bid button?

[eltales]

To increase items price
Someone outbids you , then you outbid him and again,again and then BAM !!! He sees that he gave pretty too much for item.

[XinuX]

Why would the buyer want to increase the price?

it works i use it to piss ppl off when they outbid me E.G shadow gem on ah for 1s

i bid then get outbidded andw e havea bidding war increasing slightly but tehn i bid something like 10g and they bid 11g 70% of the time

If you're not dealing with people without a brain, this probably wouldn't work.
Everybody with atleast 1nm³ brain should know when to stop bidding on something...

I did that today, bid on a stack of cloth for 1g and threw it up to 20 on the 4th bid and the other person bid to 21g.

Once in a lifetime chance though, the two other times the person noticed and stopped bidding, good thing it was my own items.

I did it with large prismatic shards. Sold 3 for 111g each.

Well...it's a lot of bullshit. lol

[deadlysarcasm]

wouldnt somebody just hit buyout?

Reread the post, rinse and repeat.

(hint: He said not to put a buyout.)

I would say this could work, but it would have to be a pretty expensive item. Lets say some epic crafted BoE item worth like 1k gold, put it on bid for 1s and broadcast it in trade. People are gonna rush to AH and make a bid, then when you see alot of people are bidding, bid like 2k-3k gold and if you're lucky, someone is not paying attention and overbidding you
