A week in the life of a WoW Robber Baron. Day 3

Welcome to day 3!


Again, just a little note. When I put 2 numbers up for "listed it for" the first will be the starting bid and the second will be the buyout price. Almost everything ends up going for the buyout price.


Day 3 Scan 1

Bought
  • Stalvan's Reaper for 20 gold - Listed it for 39/44 gold

Sold
  • Ironweb Spider Silk x3 for 3.63 gold each for a total of 10.89 gold
  • Band of Dominion for 84.87 gold
  • Stoneraven #1 for 46.76 gold

Re-Listed
  • Gem Studded Band for 14/19 gold
  • Stoneraven #2 for 39/48 gold

Nothing much going on for this scan. The pickings were pretty much barren. On another note though one of my Pad's of the Venom Spider that I had bought over a week ago, finally sold! I was having no luck selling one of the 3 I bought (ugh.. don't ask) so I decided to try to fool some poor sucker into buying it and it worked! I listed 2 for around 200 gold, and then some other guy that had no idea what they were worth tried to undercut me for 150 gold. I then listed my third one for 19 gold and it was promptly bought up and then re-listed for 50 gold. LOL good luck with that...

Day 3 Scan 2

Bought
  • Seven of Blessings for 150 gold - Listed it for 229/239

Sold
  • Iron Web Spider Silk x2 for 3.63 each for a total of 7.26 gold
  • Illusion Dust x 5 for 2.37 gold each for a total of 11.85 gold
  • Illusion Dust x10 for 23.75 gold
  • Gem Studded Band for 18.20 gold
  • Brawler Gloves for 37.11 gold
  • Design: Veiled Flame Spessarite for 142.50 gold

Re-Listed
  • Plaguebloom x20 for 16/18 gold
  • Martyr's Chain for 39/39 gold

Again, pretty slim pickings, luckily the Seven of Blessings was available for dirt cheap. The Blessings Deck is one of the most sought after caster trinkets for a few classes and the 7 and 8 are very rare and very expensive. 150 gold was a steal for it. Unfortunately for me there were like 6 other people trying to sell one. If I was only one I could have probably gotten around 300 gold for it, instead I decided to undercut everyone. I know it will sell quick. My Illusion Dust also sold, thought I was going to be stuck with that for awhile.

Day 3 Scan 3

Bought
  • Girdle of Golem Strength for 25 gold - Listed it for 79/84 gold
  • Enormous Ogre Belt for 10 gold - Listed it for 19/24 gold

Sold
  • Seven of Blessings for 227 gold
  • Plaguebloom x20 for 17.25 gold
  • Arena Bracers for 46.76 gold
  • Stoneraven #2 for46.76 gold
  • Sliverblade for 46.85 gold

Re-Listed
  • Serpent Slicer - 69/79 gold
  • Libram of Protection - 2/3 gold

Again very very slow day in terms of deals. Luckily the Seven of Blessings and Girdle of Golem Strength were and will be big for me. I don't know why people keep listing the Girdle of Golem Strength so low, this is the third cheap one I've seen and I've had very little trouble turning around and selling them for 70-80 gold. Oh well, there loss is my gain. I'm also regretting buying the Serpent Slicer, it's looking more and more like a bad idea.

Day 3 Scan 4

Bought
  • Doomspike for 15.29 gold - Listed it for 59/69 gold
  • Green Iron Hauberk for 10 gold - Listed it for 24/28 gold
  • Orb of Deception for 250 gold - Listed it for 999/1299 gold

Sold

Nothing

Re-List

Nothing

Wasn't even planning on scanning, I just logged on to buy some gear I had forgot about earlier for my Druid. I had some time to kill so I figured I might as well browse the rares and when I saw the Orb so cheap I couldn't believe it! Definitely makes up for the slow day. I will at the very least double my money with it, at best I could get a ton for it. I will admit it was tough for me to list it. I wanted to keep it for myself.

Day 3 Scan 5

Bought
  • Primal Earth x 11 for 33 gold - Listed them at 5/6 gold each
  • The Black Knight for 30 gold - Listed it for 79/89 gold
  • The Essence Focuser for 15 gold - Listed it for 49/59 gold

Sold
  • Serpent Slicer for 75.80 gold
  • Enormous Ogre Belt for 22.94 gold
  • Orb of Deception for 800 gold

Re-List
  • Stalvan's Reaper for 34/39 gold
  • Design: Delicate Eternium Ring for 109/129 gold
  • Apexis Cleaver for 109/129 gold

As soon as I logged on I got a whisper from someone wanting to buy my Orb of Deception for 800 gold. I decided to take it. I probably could have gotten more for it, but 800 isn't too shabby especially when I only paid 250 gold for it. Glad that the Serpent Slicer finally sold, I was starting to worry about it.

Total Gold Spent For The Day = 558.29 gold
Total Gold Earned For The Day = 1,666.55 gold
