Phat's Weekly Review 4/17

Before I start I just want to give a quick shout out to Jim from Power Word: Gold for being such a good sport about my last post.  Just to clarify for some readers, there's no bad blood between us, Jim is one of the reasons I'm in gold making to begin with, I just disagreed with his article and wrote a counter argument.  Now for the review!

Overview
This week I'm up to 2.33 million in liquid gold, an increase of 52k over last week.  Not the best I've ever done, but take a look at my Weekly TSM Summary:


I spent 58k this week, which I'm glad to see.  My problem is (I think at least) that I'm not processing the mass of Ghost Iron Bars that I've been investing in recently.  I've been getting them for the price of ore, so roughly half their mat cost.  I don't ask why, spoke with the guy last night and he said he enjoys farming, well hey, I enjoy not farming so we're a good fit!  Now I just need to convince my Blacksmith to set up TSM...that's a whole other project.

Organized Gem Lists
This week I've finally organized my cut rare gem Auctioning Groups in TSM by common search terms to optimize the scanning process.  I originally did this to give to you guys in a post, but then realized that it might not be the easiest or worthwhile thing to import, I'd have to post 7 lists of which you'd have to import individually, then a final grouping for overall settings...yikes.  I'm toying with the idea of posting it anyway, just for those of you who want it.  If you'd like it (or not), let me know in the comments, just trying to gauge how useful it'd be to the community before I spend an hour or two putting instructions together.

Back to Stock
Minus my Blacksmithing, I was able to effectively catch up on all my menial crafting duties; my crafts from JC, Tailoring, Enchanting, Engineering, and Inscription all got restocked this week, and it should make for a relatively stress free week next week, as far as crafting goes, so that leads me to hoping that I definitely will get my BS crafting set up next week, for optimal AH control.  I've been doing the CDs semi-regularly, so I have over 20 new patterns, it's time to put them to work!!

Stacked Diamonds
Having gone a little wild crafting Primal Diamonds, I had over a full stack in my inventory last night.  Usually I sell 4, 1 at a time for ~600g, and then get undercut after a while etc.  I decided to try and sell a 20 stack for 575g a piece, and within 12 hours, I had 11,500 g in my mailbox, still at about 100% profit over mats!  Going to try to do this some more over the week, and see how it effects the market.  My server is pretty small, so it could easily become oversaturated if I keep doing it, but I'll let you know how it goes next week.

I'll leave you with my favorite sales of the week:



Cheers,

Okay. You can probably call it a comeback in this case. I've been gone a long time. So if you follow my Twitter you'll know I recent...
