I wasnt seeing enough income for me to keep it up unfortunately.<br /><br />And if you use TSM to post your mogging gear, suffixes isnt an issue since it does post/cancel/reset searches based on itemID which doesnt change no matter what suffix an item has :)Goldzkeeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13476174321524418929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110501988676544027.post-36737496209374919242012-07-11T15:20:30.844-04:002012-07-11T15:20:30.844-04:00I did that for about a month but the announcement ...I did that for about a month but the announcement yells for the zeppelins got on my nerves.

I have so much of it on the AH at any time, I don't really care if a few are undercut, plus it's hard to track if you're undercut in another suffix or whatever you would call "of the Whale" or "of Agility" etc.Phat Lewtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283348281162957528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110501988676544027.post-28976825112318691652012-07-11T10:04:26.735-04:002012-07-11T10:04:26.735-04:00Hey, I checked out his posting heat map.

It seems as though there is a (albeit small) window where he doesn't post at all during the week. Tough guy to beat, but keep trying, guys like that eventually burn out.Phat Lewtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283348281162957528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110501988676544027.post-47697291437502246612012-07-10T10:50:38.666-04:002012-07-10T10:50:38.666-04:00We had a once upon a time doing that same thing wi...We had a once upon a time doing that same thing with a guy posting both glyphs and gems. What i did was take contact to a few of my fellow goblins and we agreed that it was about time to end his reign in those markets. We devided the week into shifts and posted a serious wall of underpriced items, to make sure that he wouldnt make a single copper until we decided he could. I became the spokesperson for our little alliance, and wrote this guy a nice letter telling him about our plan to push him out on a sidetrack. It took us a few days short of 2 weeks to run him out, and he hasnt come back ever since.<br /><br />So basically all it takes is enough capital to run a period of time with a loss :) instead of it just being me that lost a lot of gold, i reached out to the rest of the moneymaking community on my realm, so we devided our loss between us.<br /><br />As for prices - taking all my glyph sales over a month, deviding by the income i get an average sell price of just above 50g each, and with bf inks beeing about 10g each we agreed that selling every glyph for no more than 20g each (some lower) we would make sure he lost money no matter what. Same thing goes for gems. See what ur average income is per type of gem and then pick a number where you know your competition will loose a lot of gold by posting. Make his stockpile burn a hole in his pocket :) example: we lowered brilliant and delicate inferno rubies from around 200g to 95g.<br /><br />Hope it helps :)Goldzkeeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13476174321524418929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110501988676544027.post-81015938521322868382012-07-10T09:57:26.508-04:002012-07-10T09:57:26.508-04:00How do u deal with ppl who are on 24 hrs?

On my server there are 3 core players operating over several alts.Crodahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16620994327943613623noreply@blogger.com
