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.

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.<br/><br/>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?<br/><br/>Roberth, Silver Hand server Mark, I disagree. There’s 10 million players in this game.

There are very few sources because wide spread attention twoords these methods hurts buisness, and in some cases can destroy the opportunity all together.<br/><br/>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.
