Podcast: Testshow: Finally here

So... YES the testshow is finally here.

first off all before you start listening:
1 - This is being recorded with a fairly bad mic, a better one will be bought if the podcast is to your liking.
2- In the podcast you'll hear me say sheep, I listened to the podcast again and I thought it came out as cheap, so trust me if I say it's meant as SHEEP.
3- any comments or ideas are more then welcome as long as they are constructive.
4- I was very very very nervous so be gentle. You'll probably hear it in the beginning and a little lest at the end, so be sure to give me info about that.
5- this podcast isn't downloadable at this point. I want to see how the reactions are before pumping money into a site.

tip: know who youre competing with!

Today i saw Qü again, i hate that fellow... he makes a living by undercutting me.
This though reminded me that i haven't updated the blog today, and give me a todays tip right in my head.

If you see a fellow auctioneer/banker. add him to your friends list. and put up a note (i use notesuneed for this, but blizz's note is sufficient.) Mostly you can see the serious fellow bankers from a mile away... dressed out in tuxedo's or dresses. But why would i do this you ask? Well it has a couple of advantages: you can see when they are online. (for example: if your seeing 10orso online, wait with posting and buy stuff since they ussually lower the price) You can use the general search to search by name. so just have a look at those bankers in your friends tab, and see if they have some low priced mats on it (this is ussually true sunday eve and monday -since they want to get rid of their maths) or to just have a look at what they are doing. (for example: if you see 2-3 bankers posting lets say borean leather dont post it right now, they are competing and probably overflowing the market!). You'll also get an idea of when to bid, no other bankers online = Bid now! bid bid bid! ^^

Well this was my small tip for today.

Wednesday...slow Day

I had a slow day yesterday, only made 100G and a couple of vendors (I still can't believe someone can be so stupid or ignorant!... check the vendor price first!)
But with Help of Markco and his guide, i'm going to do something new! (or atleast i'm going to do it at a bigger extent/market)
Right now all my income is comming in as, as we call it "Shotgun bursts" I buy something up if its low priced and resell it. ex. Nesingwary 4000 and combat plated shotgun. bought for 200G under value and resell it. Boom, Boom, 2x 200G profit. then its quiet for two days (getting an average of 100G profit a day (+/- 500G incomming that is). Boom! 5 frostweave bags sold (5x15G profit) - Extra profit i mean.
So extra profit is nice and shotgun bursts work nice, for the first 2K orso...
But now i need some extra streaming profit.
So i'm going with commoditie selling. probably low lvl(1-60) ores/herbs and mid-endlvl(60-80) leather.
It'll be a big risk (draining all my money steadily before i can get my cashflow rolling but i have trust that this will work. (hopefully...please?)
So i'll let you know in the following days how i'm doing. and what I'm selling.

don't forget, you guys can still ask me for a video for what you think is worth showing!

trade agreement

So went to 2.5K and back down to 1.7K (in pockets i mean)
i bought a cheap nesingway 4000 (500G) and am selling it for 544g at ah. (small proffit)
and i bought a couple of frostweave bags (x4 at 70G and 3 at 66G) from a tailor.
selling them now for 79G a piece at AH (2 already sold)

Now with that tailor i got a trade aggreement: she's selling me the bags, for 70G (max price) 3 bags a week. why am i doing this? why i get to sell them for 79G! well why is she selling only for 70G then? biggest reason: she knows she can sell them, she doesn't need to worry when to sell, if they will sell, and to what cost. (and shes still getting skill points for it)
so its double proffit, and a trade agreement, she's selling to me and not at the AH, which is one less competitor.

on another note, there is a nice discussion going on at Skrooge about moral's
so take a look there if ya want ;-)

what's your view on trade agreements? got any?
