The Times Ten Challenge






Congratulations.  You made it to the end of October.  Tonight for many parents they will be carrying their kids to get bags of goodies.   Then in two days they will be sorry as their hyper sugared up children are bouncing off the walls.

This is also the end of the month here at JMTC Iowa Branch where I can tally up my gold profiteering and see what sold.   Most of the profits I made came from Jewelcrafting and Enchanting.  Easy access to raids through LFR,  Flex and even Oqueue has opened up more opportunities to upgrade players and alternate toons.

We are also less than two weeks from the beginning of Blizzcon.  Many players are waiting to see just what tidbits for the new expansion will be presented.  Where will we all be going for our quest to hit level 95 or even higher?   What gold opportunities will be there and just how much inflation will exist.

I decided I needed a personal challenge.  This may sound like a humble brag,  but when you reach a certain level of wealth you are less frugal with your gold.  The habits of just buying something to craft instead of trading or mining become that much more prevalent.  Where leaning on your craftsman a little could make you an item to transmog you find yourself just buying the item from the AH and moving on.

Next month is also the annual Nanowritmo writing challenge.  This challenges new or experienced writers to write a novel,  prose or anything they want in the next 30 days.  This will be the first year that I'm throwing my hat into the ring and give this a try. 

So the Times Ten challenge goes like this.  You take a certain level of gold in increments of 10.  You can start off with 10g,  100g,  1000g,  10,000g etc.  With that you have the option of purchasing,  crafting or flipping anything.  Best percentage at the end of the month wins.

It's on a repeat record but self motivation becomes very important to be able to climb beyond your own personal gold hurdles.  No one will be screaming in your ear to earn more gold or tell you you are a gold making noob.  Unless that's what you want then leave a message in my email and I will call you a gold making noob to appease you.

November will be an exciting month but make sure to take this last day of October,  grab all your tricky treats and lets invite the next month with a smile.

Good Luck and Good Hunting

Flipping the BMAH off


Mommar here.

The Black Markey Auction House that sits in the Valley of the Four Winds area has been forgotten for many servers.   There is the occasional brave soul that goes there to pick up their invitation to the Brawler's guild,  or on the off chance that a piece of epic gear sits there for a low bid.  But for the most part many of the items become overpriced rather quickly.

But occasionally there are a few things that pop up for bidding that should intrigue gold goblins.   Pets will appear for bidding that are more difficult to obtain than just walking up and plunking down some cash.  Pets from the Argent Crusade or long lost areas that very rarely players will go to gather.

Sometimes even epic patterns will appear for purchase.  Ones that can gain profit for the crafty gold goblin that can purchase the materials for a song.   The key is to know your market on your server and realize just what would sell and what wouldn't sell.   What materials are plentiful on your server and which materials are players struggling to obtain.  What is the tipping price for sales for a level 490 items vs a 500+ ilvl item obtained in the highest raids.   Just how much are players willing to spend on vanity items or the 'cool factor' to have a nice helm.

Your cost price and just how much profit you can squeeze out of a BMAH flip should dictate whether it is a good investment,  or to walk away and live to bid another day.

Good Luck and Good Hunting
