Gold Making – Week 35 (2025)

Well, 10.5 million for the week is a really nice amount, that’s for sure. Where did the sales come from? First of all, I leveled up a whole bunch of spare pets that I’ve kept in my banks for some time and another goblin scooped those up to re-sell since they were level 25. Perfectly fine by me, I still got what I wanted from them. I use these pets to level up alts, so I don’t bother selling pets at level 1.

There was one big collector who splurged and bought 2.5 million gold worth of unobtainable transmog from me on Argent Dawn (low pop NA RP server). That came as a bit of a surprise, but I was really glad for it. I don’t often get collectors working their way through things but it’s the perfect time for it as people look to other activities in game.

Transmog and pets made the bulk of my sales, with recipes coming in third. I’ll have to go through and restock, today I opted to take a break from posting daily and I’ll pick it back up tomorrow. A break here and there is never a bad thing, sometimes my mornings are a bit busy and I don’t have the 1h available. In any case, I’m still pretty happy with these sales.

As always, happy gaming no matter where you find yourself!

Gold Making – Week 34 / 2025

Sales were pretty good this week, and I found myself at around 8.4 million gold once the dust settled. I did end up spending a few million getting Midnight for 3 of my accounts (2 epic collections, one for NA and one for EU, and a base edition) which does not show in the TSM ledger. I also decided to finally level up cooking, which is why you see some purchases taking place. I’ve been working on collecting recipes, but it’s pretty slow going as my hands are giving me some difficulty so I can’t game much.

As far as what sold, it’s just my usual items. Recipes, battle pets, and transmog. I’m still not touching TWW (unless it’s crafted items) and that’s fine by me. As for the details:

I spend 1h each day posting auctions. I post 140-150 items on each of my 20 servers. I don’t cancel scan, I don’t see the need in my markets. If you’re selling fast moving popular items, sure maybe then you want to cancel scan. Otherwise, just be patient. Remember there’s more than one buyer out there. My servers of choice are medium/high pop ones, though I will admit that Area52 (the largest NA server) is my top as far as sales go. It could be other gold making goblins just buying my stuff to resell it and I’m OK with that. I got what I wanted for the item and it sold, those are the important things.

I’m waiting for reset to happen tomorrow. My paladin is at a generous 693 ilevel right now, and I have not one, not two, but THREE monks sitting at around 670-690. Did I mention how much I love monks this season? Well, I always have. I’m playing Mistweaver (raids, M+) and Brewmaster (Delves). Fun times.

As always, happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself.

Gold Making – Week 32 / 2025

Sales have started to slowly pick up again now that 11.2 is here, and I finally got around to leveling up a bunch of pets to 25, and got a few more alts to 80. I treat all the pets that I sell as a level 1 pet even though they’re all level 25. Number one, it helps push them out the door. Number two, I’m using the pet leveling to level up my alts, since it’s really nice and simple. I don’t price them any differently because I’m not using any tokens or anything, and it’s something I would be doing anyway as it’s my preferred method of leveling.

Pets, transmog, and recipes. A lot more pets than normal since I had over 150 to put out there. My banks are still filled with bush chickens looking for homes, I can’t get rid of those fast enough.

As you can see, I don’t do a lot of sales in a week – 61 items sold for just over 2.4 million gold. The items I do tend to sell are sought after by collectors, and I never know when one is going to wander through. It helps that the collector’s bounty has ended, leaving behind a surplus of transmog in its wake. Me? I’m patient. Items will either sell, or they won’t. Each day I just keep reposting until they do. Sometimes I adjust my TSM operations to include a string where as it racks up expires the item also gets discounted, in case it’s just not moving at all. I use this method in particular on overpriced NLA (no longer available) items that have a regional value of 9 million but would never actually sell for that amount. Eventually it drops down to a value that someone is willing to pay.

As always, happy gaming – no matter where you find yourself.

The Cusp of Season 3

Am I excited about the start of Season 3 coming to world of Warcraft? Well, yes and no. I have been away from the game for most of season 1, and a majority of season 2. I’m excited to be around for season 3. It’s nice to be playing again, and I’m hoping to get some 10+ mythics under my belt. I’m not excited about the dungeon choices, and I think they’ll be rough.

I did spend a bunch of time this morning fixing up my banks. I unlocked all of the regular slots, unlocked the reagent tab, and unlocked void storage on any character under 80. This should allow me to swap over seamlessly to the new system. If you’re level 80, you’ll already get these new bank slots, but I have a lot of auction house characters who do nothing except AH stuff. I wanted them to be able to take advantage of the new system. I also removed anything that was in those banks because last time Blizzard messed with the guild bank system I ended up losing millions of gold worth of items and they never returned them to me. Not fun.

Aside from doing a few more quests to get my ilevel as high as I could (within reason) before the season starts, and fixing up the bank stuff, I haven’t bothered with much else. I did try to get a few achievements that I knew was going away (rk11 delves, etc) but I didn’t go out of my way to complete EVERYTHING. I might put forth more effort into that going forward into season 3, but we’ll see. Anyone else out there doing anything fancy to get ready? Let me know in comments – as always, happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself.

Gold Making – Week 31 / 2025

Sales have been picking up a bit this week (or they’re just better because I’ve been consistently listing them for once) with a fair number of items selling at high prices (58 items sold, and just under 5 million gold earned overall). It’s all of my usual items which includes older transmog, recipes, and pets. I don’t deal in current tier, or consumables (thinks that stack, like potions, ore, or enchants).

I also learned that the allied race quests have changed a while back – and I finally. FINALLY unlocked Kul Tiran. I don’t play alliance very often these days, and that single allied race has sat locked for ages because (way back when, apparently) you had to do the main BFA story line as alliance for it and I just don’t really enjoy questing that much. It was nice to finally get it done but I probably should have paid attention and realized it changed ages ago. It doesn’t help that a lot of the AI answers for … everything these days, is just plain wrong. Look deeper into the questions you’re asking (google AI told me Earthen were an alliance only face – NOT true at all).

Anyway, it’s another week of sales – slow and steady. What has everyone else been up to? How are your gold making adventures going? Let me know in comments.
