[hint]make your auctions sell better

[Severnaja]

This is byfar not a full guide, just a little hint.I've read the auction house guides and didn't find it, so i thought i'd share it.

On my server ( very old one ) people are really suspicious when it comes to ah prices, and i found a little way to make my auctions sell better.This works best if you have a monopoly on items.(like for example limites supply recipes)

I suppose you read the ah guides where it tells you to use uneven prices and don't up to much at a time.

Here's the adition i use:

Instead of upping 3 recipes or goods at one time with the same char i use 3 chars, first char puts the recipe in for a very high amount of gold, the secon one for a little cheaper and the third one still adds for a quite high amount but lower than the two others.

Be carefull though cause you will have to pay the deposit cost for the highest one most likely since the recipe won't sell normally for that char.

This works of course best for items that have no deposit costs like enchanting mats, but most likely you won't get a monopoly on those, so i'd rather look for recipes like Pattern: Black Swashbuckler's Shirt that are sold fpr a very low price and because of that have a very low deposit cost.

Using this method i was able to sell my patterns for 30 instead of 15 gold on my server.


Finally please don't spam common sense, if it is common sense to you, fine, but this is for the ones to which it isn't
