Too Much Stuff

Posted by J.E. Douglas at 2:00 PM

After having dug myself out of an avalanche of a guild bank I purchased recently,  I came to the realization that I might have too much stuff saved for MOP (blasphemous words I know).

It's not that difficult to get into the hype of buying things to resell quickly for massive profits.   That will occur.  We've talked about Pets and Leather and cloth and ore to save.   And even for the rest of this week and next week we will talk some more about it.  It can be exciting to figure out what other players both old and new will want to purchase for high prices.

But there does come a time when players will balance between investment and holding.  The biggest challenge is to make sure that you are getting as much bang for your buck and storage area as possible. Many players by now have at least one separate Guild Bank of their own.   Even if you are just using your regular character storage bank each slot becomes a chance for investment.   So planning out exactly what you should buy,  and where to place it becomes more and more important.

So when you continue to buy items for investment,  keep and mental picture of exactly what amount of profit you want to obtain from the item.   If your stocking up on Netherweave for bags,  then how much profit will that be compared to purchasing a blue weapon for resell.   Will a stack of Iron Ore obtain the same profit as a stack of Heavy Leather?

Each slot that you fill for investment purposes become more important in the next two weeks.  Mists of Pandaria and the panda invasion is just beyond the horizon.   Preparation and expectation will start to build to a fever pitch.   So look for investments,  but keep that measure of resistance to buy everything without purpose.

Good Luck and Good Hoarding
