Welcome to WoW Investor!
Mar 28, 2008 WoW Economist
This blog’s aim is to provide free investment advice relating to the Auction House and profession markets in World of Warcraft. By following the suggestions posted here, you should see your in game wealth accumulate over time.
It should only take you about 10 minutes once or twice a day to make the necessary purchases and sales; and the only travel it involves is running between the auctioneers and your mailbox- easy right? and sure as hell beats mindless farming!
Remember, like any investment advice, there are no guarantees; however, we have used many of the methods posted here in the past and they have been effective over the long term.
We have devised a five-point scale to describe the riskiness of a given investment with 1 being the least risky and 5 being the most risky. Unseasoned investors may want to stay away from riskier advice at first until they have a better grasp of the system at which point they could decide to attempt them. Here is the whole scale, for reference:

Keep up the good work as there are very few sources for great commerce tips like the ones you’ve provided here

Look I know you guys are just looking to help people… but in all honesty your sort of sabotaging your own interests. There are very few sources because wide spread attention twoords these methods hurts buisness, and in some cases can destroy the opportunity all together.
And in my ownexperience, the people who really need this kind of info are patheticially poor and show little or no effort to improve upon there situation.

Mark, I disagree. There’s 10 million players in this game. I doubt even 1% of them read these kind of blogs and even more doubtful that 1% of them can take these words of wisdom to heart. Spread out among all the hundreds of servers out there and you’re talking about very little real competition. Most people in my experience just load up an Auctioneer type mod and think that’s all they need to be successful.
Its like all the money books you see in the library. Sure some are just out to make a quick buck but lots of them have good information relevant to the times and will help you make or save money. Why not the same effort in WoW with blogs?

I think this is a great blog and definitely of interest to us undercover economists lurking in the game. My friends always rag on me for spending so much time in the AH, but that’s the beauty of WoW, it’s whatever you want it to be.
I agree with Tom — with near instant sharing of information in the available in the real world you still see heavy aribtrage and large market swings happening — the information on this blog can be nothing but pure fun.
