Suggestion Box Friday (4/10/09)

Suggestion Box Friday - This is your chance to be the blog writer! Anything goes today, as long as it has to do with making gold in wow.

Addon Spotlight:

Auctionlite is an interesting new addon that was brought to my attention by the author Merial Kilrogg a few weeks ago. I've been testing it and giving her feedback on the addon since then. I can say that this is a great addition to auctioneer and makes spotting outliers even easier than reading pct.

If you think auctioneer is too complicated then I would suggest trying this addon as a substitute to auctioneer. An interesting feature is the ability to buy multiple items at once, instead of having to select purchase for every item the way auctioneer has you buy.

Simplicity is the key to this addon and makes it a must have for auctioneers who would like to speed up the buying process and thus save time overall.

Blog Spotlight:

RP4FunAndProfit is a new blog coming out written by Spark with an interesting twist: It's an RP gold making site! Pretty cool huh? Why not head on over to his site and let Sparks know what you think :)

Congratulations to last week's Blog Spotlight: Skrooge who was already featured on Wowinsider's the Queue this week!

Your Comments

Regarding Reverse Speculation and Icy Dragonscales:

I have over a thousand dragonscales, but I never paid more than 1.25g per...and I'm still buying a few stacks a day. It just seems my server (Cho'gall) either doesn't read your blog, or there is just too much supply. I know I won't make back my money quickly...but I hope to be one of the largest suppliers on my server. I plan to hit the market on patch day with 3 different toons with 3 different and increasing prices. Wish me luck!

To Wiggin: GOOD LUCK! Be sure to get all the other people that hoarded scales to post underneath your initial posts before undercutting with your other toons (I'm assuming that's your plan in the first place).

Regarding Back to Basics - Auctioneer Recap

Does auctioneer keep the data from different realms separate? I assume it does since markets vary from server to server, but I've been hesitant to use it on other servers with the fear it may skew the data on my main.

To Anonymous: Post a name next time, Don't be shy! Yes auctioneer keeps data between realms seperate.

Hey Marcko. Check out http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info10924-Auc-Util-BigPicture.html if you don't have it already. It uses auctioneer data to calculate your inventory etc so you can see how much gold you really have :)

To B: Cool!!!!

Emails

TONS of gold making ideas, blogs, and much more have reached my mailbox. I will do my best to work them into the site over the next several weeks. Keep sending in your tips and I'll continue to post them. Remember to let me know if you'd like to remain anonymous.

Discussion

What will patch day hold for auctioneer? Will it cease to work with 3.1? How will you combat this? I'm considering posting all my glyphs the night before the patch hits, just in case auctioneer stops working with the new .LUA changes.
