Hmmm, while it's definatly possible to earn some coin doing this, i'm finding the mail-spam a headache. I use 'postal' to get my mail quickly, but as there are 1000 (or more) incoming mails i find it take quite a bit of time to deplete.
My only solution so far is to combine the time with the jewelcrafting trick or using a multibox....any other ideas?
40g for up to 10 minutes mail (60 sec per 50) isnt that great.
So, I've been trying this since my last post on 3 different servers. No one else is going it but me and.. I've only sold a grand total of 4.
I sold quite a few doing this. Not a ton of gold but it's pretty funny.
Managed to sell quite a few. After a couple of days i'm managed to make about 220 gold profit, but like someone else said, recieving all the ones that don't sell is pretty annoying
Im pretty well known on my server as an ass for doing this, good thing i did it on my alt. But still all that mail for minimal profit sucks but nonetheless it's free gold
Haha i got over 5 angry emails from hunters :P i filled 200, 50 item pages with my arrows, and like over 100 were sold... hahaha dumb hunters left with like 20 arrows...

This thread is not very good.
It is very obvious to see the number "1" in the corner and not a "1000" unless you are to tell me the system is gliched and it shows "1000". But in this case hunters in my guild look at the buyer buy 1 stack and if it is 1000 they buy the rest and if not they stop and put you on ignore or something. Please pictures that show us the illusion it is 1000. Before this patch that would actually be slightly more viable, before it would show "1..." so it can commonly be mistaked for "1" for lazy hunters.
It works any patch. It just you can post it much easier now. So before saying this doesnt work how about you try it. Because over night i made 60g. Thats a 57g profit from a stack of arrows that cost 3g. Thats around a 20x profit for minimal effort
Seems good if you have some dumb people on your server
Rofl this got nominated?
First i was thinking damn thi suxx 2000 stack @ sell 1 hour to put them on the HV suxx ...
But THIS IS ******* EPIQ omg i already sold ~100 of them this is crazy
45 x 3.50 po (stack bullets) = 157.50 60 x 4 po (stack arrows) = 240
So 397.50 po for free x) +Rep !!!
This works great!!
+Rep !!!
This is really clever. I made 249g in one go by only selling 42! I didn't even put up 1000 because it was taking too long. The problem is that if someone undercuts the person's price you tried to imitate, it all messes up. E.g.
7g a stack of 1000
6g99s a stack of 1
If someone puts
5g37s a stack of 1000
you are going to have to cancel the 6g99s auctions and post them up again for
5g36s a stack.
EDIT: Turns out my mailbox was full :P I actually made 420g selling 70! Easy money!
Everyone should try this with arrows and bullets.
