ok so i just earned 8 gold without doing anything...!!!!

i bought 8 blue iron from the tradpost for jack to make my full plate armor... then i realised i should rather wait until im lvl 80 and get that armor instead...

so i put them back on sale for 2.50 gold per blue iron... and suddently i was 8 gold richer :D hehe

i think im going to continue doing this :D this is like the stock marked :D but i think i hit the jackpot... hehe

I made quick $$$ in AoC with what I think is a similar method. I did it with every! item type (the uniques required openning mail one at time and selling - even though I was buying multiples at the same time).

I positioned one of my toons so I could stand with trader / mail window open and npc vendor window open at the same time. I set a price range for max buy (like setting my profit margin as I saw it) based on specific item levels. I would buy from trader and sell to vendor as fast as I could. Go down the entire list of searchables. I did it 2-3 times daily! It almost felt like cheating cuz it was so easy and fast to make $$$. I am sure the market has grown smarter by now. But it was insane easy $$$ because folks were always underselling!

WoW was a different story, but I had fun with that market as well! :)
