If the above scenario was real, what would you do? Well, for the last weeks I have been having that situation and have yet to found a solution. Or well, that was true until today when I finally noticed the reason. What was it? As I may have told you my server currently got pretty low glyph prices, though they are slowly going up. In short, I realised that I didn't have enough glyphs up to get enough sales for it to be profitable, so what did I do?
As the problem was a too small coverage of glyphs I decided the best way to counter it was getting more glyphs. So what I did was that I queued up enough glyphs to make sure I had 3 of each glyph I can make by using Kevmar's addon. This used up most of my ink of the sea and a huge part of my stocked up ink from the big screwup, and I assume Kevmar doesn't like I'm doing that. However I felt it was necessary. Was it worth it? Well, you can decide that yourselves.
The above picture was taken within 30 minutes of my posting and I have already sold more than I sold in a week earlier, not too bad. What I need to do now is finding a supplier, something I haven't bothered with so far as my glyphs have been moving very slow, but now when I start selling them at this rate it seems like I need to get them back.
Well, except from a huge glyph sucess nothing has really happened today. I did a lot of saronite and infinite dust purchases yesterday so I'm down to about 14 800g. I have also started leveling my DK so I can do the JC daily without having to spend stupid amounts of time to kill a mob 5 or 6 level higher than me to notice it didn't drop. I reached level 66 today and aim for at least level 70 for epic flying in Northrend.
Lol! One of your buyers is a twitard. XD
ReplyDeleteLooks good. I need to up my output and posting as well. I am just dabbling with all the stock of glyphs I had while leveling my DK with herbs/Inscription. I make around 50g-100g/day doing nothing more than posting and reposting everything that is already made. I need to settle down and decide what to start making and posting on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteIs there a way to know which glyphs and best sellers versus the duds that never sell even when you list them for under 1g? I mean I can what ever day what "I" sell but that doesn't give me the overall glyph market as I have surely not made all the glyphs that are hot sellers while I was leveling up. I am also still doing minor and northrend research getting new glyphs daily but I have held off making new glyphs until I am better sure what to make. Thoughts?

ReplyDeleteWell, until recently I have picked my glyphs manually from the QA2 summary window or choosing the glyphs with a high auctioneer value. The last few crafting sessions I have been using Kevmar's addon that I linked to in the post (I hate having to share such a great addon but as he put it out on his blog I guess my small group of readers wont really matter) but it requires you to have a good stock of ink, at least the first time.
The good thing about this is that you only craft glyphs that sell and once you have made a stock of lets say 3 of each glyphs you will never have to craft a none selling glyph again.
Grats on your sales.
ReplyDeleteI wrote that mod out of necessity. I was doing daily crafting and the constant review of each and every glyph was slowing me down. (I was also using 550-1200 ink a night)
Its not a big deal to me how others run the market they are in. But a large inventory of ink has saved me so many times. Thats why I preach it so hard. At the same time I am on a server that buys a high volume of glyphs. And the gold just flows in when my competition runs out of ink.
