The rest I leave up to you guys:

I want awnsers on the following:

1. should I start a new banker?
2. if so A DK or again a lvl2 gnome?
3. if the banker is a gnome should i lvl a DK?
4. which proffesions does the DKbanker or the DKlvld need to have?
5. Whats the starting amount I should have? (maximum of 1K!)
6. What should be te goal? 100K,200K etc?
7. Should I make a weekly or daily report about it?
8. should it have it’s own guild from the start?
9. Should I use another one to’ help’ me? -make a coalition with-(GF, Zéntrix, someone new?)
10.Would you like to “help”?

Edit: corrected some errors

Hey guys,
I’m sorry to tell you this but today and tomorow I wont be posting a wall of text. My wife got sick a couple of days ago, and it seems that I took over it over. So sitting up is a real pain right now.

Though i’m going to give you a little update about monetize.
yesterday i made a little 250G profit, a lot of the stuff came back from AH, and the prices dropped on a lot of things that i’m selling daily (armor kits, vision dust etc). So i’m waiting it out before putting the auctions up again. Instead i’m buying it all up.

Again i’m sorry that i can’t post a lot so here’s some reading material:
Zekta’s Blog which i find a good read anytime is prolonging her report.
While Markco is talking about the cost of buying low and selling high.
Also have a look at how funny money is, at WoWenomics.

again sorry for the short post.
I’ll try to write something while i’m lying ni bed orso and let my wife put it up if she’s willing.

Aaaah Monetize, yes… monetize…

Well this lill’ fellow is up and running at 4.1K again, though my worth is decreased to 6.3K
A few things are responsible for this:
- I’ve had to relist sword of jin for 1.3K instead of 2K (undercutterss goddamn them!) which means still 400G profit but not the 1K i hoped.
- The bagindustry collapsed, 3-4 people joined in with their products (frostweave bag) and they are selling for 70G instead of 100G.
- Razorheads are selling slower, and the guy from mammoth cutters has figured out what i’m doing, so he evened up the prices… (smart man! ^^ )

This all makes my worth lower and selling harder. which in turn makes profit harder. Yesterday though i was happy i also manually scan and not blindly use a configured search. i found 3 stacks of greater eternal essence at 41% while the rest of them where listed at 125%, for some reason my auctioneer missed this… (i think it is because it uses other pct then my normal search)
Oh well bought them up and put half of them on the market for about 124%. 2h later they sold out, and i put on the other half, another hour later all of them sold.

I’m having trouble right now though keeping my auctions up and above of 100-150.
There was certainly an increase in bankers (i saw 6 new ones over the last 2days!) but the amount of auctions are at an ever low. (230 pages) I’m looking for a few niché markets but haven’t foun any others yet. Also the glyph market seems to have a free fall going on. even the normally high priced ones are down to 5g a piece! Oh well more updates will follow later!

Hey all,
sorry i havn’t updated lasst weekend. I’ve been quite busy with RL activities which didn’t allow me time for the blog. Therefor i also didn’t have much time to think about a blogpost, and will keep a short mission update: (more tips and info will ofcourse follow later today or tomorow)

With Monetize I reached 5K in pockets yesterday morning, well i fell back to 4K in pockets, since i swa sword of jin for half price. (bought it for 950G and selling it for 2K right now) so if htis works i’ll have 6K
i’m only worht 6.7K right now, and only have 70something auctions left! the market is falling a bit, and went from 270 to 200pages over my 2 scans in the weekend. I’m still figuring out a solution to this problem, since this is by far the lowest pagecount from AH i’ve seen so far!

on another note: my razorheads are selling well (buying saronite arrowmakers for 44G and sellign the 2K arrows for 60G). Almost have no titanium left (7bars) but waiting untill there are less singles at ah before i’m posting those again (somebody is posting a lot of singles on them right now… maybe a blog reader?)

oh well thats about it for now.
so how was your weekend? good trading? and what about your AH, is it small big or something else?

finally i got myself up to 4200G in my pockets and another 3k in the AH.
So it’s going gooood

these week top winners are:
Titanium bar x 1 buying them buy 20 and selling by one this is awesome
soul dust!, since yesterday controlling the market there and got me a good 150G out of it. (todays last batch is up only worth 3-5G profit.
and the bags my last bags sold at the starter of the week for another 100G profit, and now i’m buying some more to sell thuesday again.

small update today, since nothing much happened, sorry guys

Mission: Monetize is slowly progressing or even comming to a stand still.
Yesterday i reached the 6K worth but with half of it in cash! (about 3.3K)
The problem is the AH, its too small to make big and fast profit, so it’s going slower then i’m used too. A lot slower actually. But i’m not going to whine here. I’m going to let you know what brings in the most profit right now:
the stack to singles rule, is currently the one bringing in the most gold. i buy 20 titanium bars (already have 4 stacks of them and a couple of singles at ah) for about 100G or less (so thats 5G a bar) and sell them for 8G per single. I sell 3-5 of them a day so thats a steady income of about 10G. (oooh the horror only 10 gold!)
i sold bone-framed bracers yesterday for 190G so thats 40G profit on them. and various herbs bought at Darkmoon faire, gave me around 8G profit this weekend. some glyphs that i aqcuire through a trade agreement are selling but only with minimum profit (about a Gold per glyph). The Soul dusts i was collecting are finally paying off and are selling on 100% which is about 1.10G profit a stack and 15s per single. (so i’m selling those in singles right now)
Apart from that its all the 20% deals where i make the rest of my money.

If you remember, i made a trade agreement for 3-5 bags frostweave a week. and well her price went up. So i’m paying 80G a bag and putting them up for auction at 100G. The problem here however is that some of my fellow bankers discovered this (apperantly) and are posting them too. which is resulting in a undercut-war. Since i have not much cash on hand, i dropped the trade agreement for the frostweave bags for now.

On the buying side of things, i finally got my full wardrobe. When i started, there where cheap tuxedo’s at the market so i already had that (vest, pants and shirt). This weekend, i also bought the diamond tipped cane, silver cuflings and a monocle.. just because i want him to look good! This “investment” set me back about 100G. I was thinking about buying a mug for my hand, but i ain’t no dwarf. also while questing with an alt, i bought a red rose, to make my banker a Don Juan. looked pretty nice.

and last but not least, on the blog side of it all, It’s been a good couple of days with a lot of updates, and visitors. Which gives me the strength to keep going untill a 100K with this fellow.

Back again with an update:
got 3.4K in my pockets (mainly due to two objects i made a great deal on, spiked titansteel helm and a lot of frostweave bags)
my auctions though lost a lot of value and i only have a 1.6K in auctions right now so i need to start buying and selling a lot more.
also bought a lot of vision dusts, since the price dropped about 70% in the last two days ,and still ahve some glyphs that arn’t selling.

oh well it could be better, but it also could be a lot worse.
that’s it for now, i’ll get back to you all later

Hey all!

I got Monetize up to 5K yesterday! (worth) and 3K in tha pocket!
With the tips of Markco I finally got myself back up to 150 auctions! So what did i do with 3K in my pockets? went to DMF with an alt, and bought a lot of herbs there. back at IF AH I bought an eternal belt buckle that was going cheap (half price) , a lot of vision dust (all about 40%) cheap herbs (everything below 50%) and some saronite ore. Ive let a mate of mine smelt the ores, and selling the saronite barsfor double that i’ve payed them. eternal belt buckly sold about 10mins after i posted it. An alchemist produced somoe flasks of endless rage for me (giving the herbs i bought from ah) and selling them. the rest of the herbs are going back on AH a couple at a time and the same goes for the vision dust. I’ve also stumbled on some primal mana (10%! of worth) so thats going backon AH again 2 at a time. But what i think was the biggest catch is this: Bone-Framed Bracers. I already sold them once with a 25G profit, so i know it sells. Now yesterday i bought them for 120G which is about HALF its worth on our server! i looked at AH and yes there where 2 of them one at 290 and one at 310G!… my eyes rattled with dollar and euro signs! so i posted them at ah for a nice 289G and waiting on them to sell

God i can’t wait to get back online later!
I hoped you enjoyed my post today!

have fun,
and don’t forget…
A fortune starts with one copper

okaj i just reached 2K gold well went over it and bought some stuff for resale,
but everything is slowing down… i can’t seem to find any good deals anymore, or atleast not as i’m used to it. Maybe it’s noblegarden, or temporary drop in the market.
then if i see a good price. you know a deal for 45percent orso, there are hundereds of them! literally hundreds! 4 pages full of 40percent wool cloth to give a dumb example.

are you guys experiencing the same problem? or is it just me?
