Argent Tournament Pets - What Will Become Of Them?

 I've been thinking.... man Wrath Of The Lich King was awesome... but it's coming to an end very quickly. I thought... what item is going to have a huge increase in price because it's farmed for in Wrath Of The Lich King and won't be farmed as heavily in Cataclysm? I instantly thought, the Argent Tournament Pets! These things will rise so much in value, because quite frankly, no one is going to farm these puppies come cataclysm!


So What's The Deal?
The Deal is that these things take ages to farm, even with doing everything, they are such a pain in the butt, I'm not even sure why they go for so low. Anyways, like I said  right now they are a pain to farm, so I suggest stocking up on these pets before cataclysm hits as you won't see many around. Their prices are going to rice, regardless, Not many people are going to go out of their way to farm these pets, so it's best to pick them up before hand.

How much do I buy then for?
I've started buying them for as low as 350g per pet. You might think WOW that's extremely low! They currently AH for about 600-700g, but people are so desperate to get rid of these pets, you'd be amazed how many bites you'd get if you spammed trade for 30 minutes.

I've also started trading the pets cross faction as they have a even higher markup value. I can easily push for 1500g per pet if they are of the opposite faction.

I made 150k+ in 1 day - TCG Loot & Flipping Values

Wow I must say just wow! I was just searching my realm forums yesterday and happened to spot a guy selling a Swift Spectral Tiger for 60k. I INSTANTLY bought this. You ask me why? Because the value of these things are about 250k+. Within an hour I had someone transfer to me with 16  Mekgineer's Chopper, each valued at 14k, and buy the mount off me. I still have the choppers but I can easily sell them at 14.5k ea or even 14k.


Just comes to show you browsing your realms forum can net you in some HUGE deals, I myself made 150k :).

There is great money to be made from TCG the only downside is that it requires heaps of gold to start off with, and sometimes you have to be willing to pay for several server transfers.

Avenging Blades - Easy Gold In Seconds!

Me in Nagrand Talking to the vendor :)  + Tooltip of the Avenging Blades.

Today I will be writing about Avenging Blades. These blades are sold by a Halaa vendor, Aldraan for 2g21s42c each. In order to buy them your faction must control Halaa. They are unique, meaning you can only have one in your inventory at a time.

What I do is go to nagrand, talk to the vendor buy, 1 blade, disenchant it for a chance at 1-3 Greater Planar Essence. Each Essence is worth 11-15g ea. They are a rare spawn but the timers are not bad ( 45-60 mins ). I have my mage parked here and I log in, buy the blades, DE them log out and log back in once hour.

If you're really in need of Greater Planar Essences, and are not willing  to wait for the one hour spawn timer, and have a toon that's 70+ of the opposite faction, you can buy the first 3 blades, log into your opposite faction toon, kill the NPC and wait 3 minutes for him to respawn and buy 3 more blades. You can do this up to 18-20 times in an hour for an insane amount of gold. ( 800-1200g/hour ). Do keep in mind that there are many requirements to make insane amounts of gold.

There are also Halaani Claymores which are also rare spawn, they cost 9g each, but they also have a chance to give 1-2 Greater Planar Essence. I still buy these despite their price because there is still profit to be made from them.

Using The World Of Warcraft Server Forums Wisely

Quoted from Official Wow Forums, Original Post By Léthalock:
"Hi there i have a nice gold making business which you may like to add to your blog, its not for everyone and requires substantial capital but its a nice easy way to make gold.

Rather than be gold capped on just one character i spread it around, i try and keep 100k+ on both my alliance character and my horde character.

I then made a post offering my services on my realm forums as a way for people to transfer gold cross faction in a hassle free way, i simply charge a 10% fee on top of the amount they want moved over.

Someone approaches my horde character gives me 5000g + my 500g fee i then log right over and give their alliance alt 5000g no mess no fuss. Neutral AH takes 15% so I'm cheaper and faster.

As i said this is not for everyone but if you have good capital and a good name you will find you have a steady flow of customers each week and you're making 10% to have your gold flow back and forth, some weeks are quiet and some are busy I've moved 10,000g or as much as 100,000g in a week but its all 100% risk fee.

I just made a thread on my realm forums outlining my idea then had some customers go bump the thread for me, no people just know if they need gold moved cross server to come looking for me its great ^_^ "

I was mind blown when I read this and thought this needs to be posted asap! So here it is, Comments/thoughts?

Cross Faction Trading

Last night I decided to give cross faction trading a go, and as I found out this can be very profitable. I only bought 2 recipes, which were Recipe: Savory Deviate Delight, and Recipe: Elixir of Giant Growth. I bought 3 of the Savory Deviate Delight Recipe, each for about 200-250g each, and 4 of the Elixir of Giant Growth, each for about 25g. I then transferred them to my alliance toons, and sent them to my bank alt. I used one of the deviate recipes, and I later sold one of each to my awesome thorium farmer, both for 500g. I then proceeded to post one of each of the recipes on the auction house, I posted the Savory Deviate Delight for 1000 gold, and to my surprise it sold within seconds of me saying something about it in trade. The other recipe ( of which I still have 1 of ), sold for 150g on the auction house.

I must say, I will be repeating this process and will later proceed to dive further into the markets, although, the prices aren't much different of ores, gems, etc. For about minutes of work, I made about 1100g of easy profit, only using 2 rare recipes which rarely appear on the Alliance AH. and I even got to keep on of the recipes. I must warn people though, the process of trading cross faction using the neutral AH, can be dangerous on high population servers, as there can be bots waiting for you to post your high value things at 1 copper. You can avoid this by posting a low value item ( such as food ) for 1 copper, and see if someone buys it, and add them to your friends list and then trade when the botter(s) are offline.
