One of the easiest ways to make gold in WoW is through the Auction<\/a> House. When I started out playing this game more than 3 years ago, I was insanely poor just like most low level players. I couldn’t afford anything I wanted; I never even used a potion until after level 40.<\/p>\n

Three years later, I still see many new players struggling to make much WoW gold. I want to share a few tips that will help you guys get started.<\/p>\n

When I walked into Darnassus Auction House for the first time on my first toon ever, I was astounded by the traffic flow of items. Something just clicked in that moment; the simple rule of ‘buying low and selling high’ popped into my mind.<\/p>\n

This idea sounded good on paper, but how do I know which items to buy at which prices? I didn’t know. I was never sure if gold could be made from the items that I bought.<\/p>\n

I made a level 1 character; I ran her to the nearest Major city and just sat her in the Auction House. I would logon to this alt 2-3 times a day to buy\/sell in the Auction House.<\/p>\n

The gold in my stash increased as time went by and as I become familiarize myself with the Auction House. My alt started with a measly 50 silvers, by the time my main reached level 40, I was able to purchase my normal mount right away and still have 30-40 gold left.<\/p>\n

To avoid high deposit fees, I avoided purchasing armor and weapons on the Auction House.<\/p>\n

Enchanting mats were my main target as they don’t have any deposit fee, funny at the time I didn’t even know what enchanting mats were, I just knew I could make a fortune off of them.<\/p>\n

When the addon Auctioneer came out, it saved me so much time. I did not have to sort through pages of Auctions; the addon automatically scans the entire Auction House and provide you with recommended list of items.<\/p>\n

I made tons of mistakes my first play through; I bought many items that never sold. In fact, to this day, a few of my alts still have some pre-BC items that are completely useless now. I just keep them for memorial purposes (anyone remember the uber Beasts deck, maybe dungeon 1 item sets?).<\/p>\n

You become stronger through the these mistakes right?<\/p>\n
