This is what we say: This guide has to be one of the worst guides I have ever seen. I certainly hope that no one is paying for it since it is utterly useless. A more effective guide would be "The mobs of azeroth drop coins, kill enough and be rich.". This is seriously a pathetic attempt to make some money and I can not believe that the author of this guide considers it to be serious.
Why am I allowing the release of it: Because the guys from SniperPRO kept advertising and posting useless threads for tricking our members and to gain free advertising. Something that we do not tolerate.

Hey guys,
I’m rewriting the SniperPro guide because it’s crap and it holds a lot of fluff. I’m removing the fluff and explaining the more important stuff. So let’s get started!
Firstly, I’d like to say that sniping is completely legal and allowed in WoW. Although you’ll get shit for it from other players it won’t get you banned. An example of this is the following:
Now you know this, you can start installing the SniperPro addon. This is how you do it:
Extract the contents of the SniperPRO.zip file to your World of Warcraft addon directory (Usually C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons\) and you're good to go. No configuration is required and the addon will automatically load as soon as you open the Auction House window.
Usage:
1.) Open a Neutral Auction House window by right clicking on any Neutral Auctioneer.
2a.) Start clicking on the Search button. This will refresh all of the current auctions and, by default, display the lowest priced items at the top of the list. If a new auction has been listed, the Total Auctions frame will alert you by flashing.
2b.) As an alternative to repeatedly clicking the Search button, you can create a macro using the following code: /script QueryAuctionItems("", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0);
3.) If you find a good deal, double click the item to immediately buy it.
All of the Neutral Auction Houses are linked. This means that when a player lists an item, no matter where they do it from, it will be available for purchase from ANY Neutral Auctioneer.
The best time to begin searching is when you see other players gathered around a Neutral Auctioneer. Keep in mind there are a total of 5 Auctioneers scattered across 3 different zones. If there aren't any players around your current Auctioneer, it's possible they're using the Neutral Auction House in an entirely different zone.
You probably want to know where these auctioneers are, so here’s the list with locations:
Booty Bay
Auctioneer O'reely is probably the most used Neutral Auctioneer. He is stationed right next to a mailbox which gives quick access to any purchased auctions.
Auctioneer Graves stands on a crate just across the water from Auctioneer O'Reely (in front of the big waterfall).
If you can squeeze back there, a good place to snipe from is on the other side of his crate (don't fall off!)
Not too many players know about Auctioneer Kresky. He hides in the basement of one of the buildings and is the best choice if you don't want to be seen while sniping. (http://internetmarketingforums.nl/sn...kresky-map.jpg)
Everlook
Auctioneer Grizzlin is located inside the largest building in Everlook
Gadgetzan
Auctioneer Beardo can be found hiding in an underground building next to the Bank.
Well, that's it! You've learned just about all there is to know about auction sniping. Here are a few additional tips & tricks that will give you even greater success:
* Keep an eye out for players who are too low or too high of a level for that particular zone. A level 1 in Booty Bay is most likely there to transfer items cross-faction.
* To see if there are any low level players in the other zones, you can type: /who Tanaris 1-20 or /who Winterspring 1-20. This command will list any players in Tanaris or Winterspring who are between levels 1 and 20.
* If it's a slow day, try switching to another realm. I've found that having sniping characters across multiple realms will greatly increase the amount of items obtained.
* Always have more than one character sitting next to a neutral auctioneer. If someone discovers you've sniped one of their auctions, they will be more inclined to continue listing if they see you log out. You can then switch to your other character and usually snipe them again!
* Players will often send you angry or obscene private messages after you buy their auctions. It is highly recommended that you simply /ignore them. They might threaten to report you, but it doesn't matter because auction sniping is not against the rules.
