Making the Most of the Auction House

[Dogstar]

Hello Folks

I've been busy at the auction house over the last month (ever since gettign auctioneer) and I've managed to make myself about 100 gold.

The most profitable items have been the limited supply plans/recipes/schematics that you can buy from vendors dotted all over the world.

I'd like to propose a way for the guild to build up a decent wedge of gold to assist all it's members, without placing an undue burden on the higher level characters.

Put very simply it's this:

1. Buy every limited supply item you see
2. Mail it to me with COD equal to the purchase price
3. I sell it at the auction house and mail the profit to a guild officer

A few additional points to make it nice and fair:

Show a record of whose been contributing the most so that people can compete to be the best
Give people some cash as they progress up in ranks in the guild as a reward for contributing to the guild


Any thoughts?

Oh well guess I'll stick to making a mint on my own then...

I think its a good idea. I actualy have a character permanently at the auction house myself. If you were willing to do all that - Kudos to you.
Are you sure you'd like to do all this. First off it commits you to actually playing the game regularly and arbitrating on all the peculiarities you are likely to get.

Sorry robin, havent been on forums much recently.....work commitments

Not a bad idea in principle but I do wonder how well it would work in practice.

Have a feeling this is probably a bread n butter earner for many in the guild

Great idea, but why involve the middle man? 

send the officers the cash once you've made a mint. and we're all happy
