Weekly Roundup - 25th June

Its the end of the week so it is time to look back and see how I have doing.

First off, that Battered Hilt I have bought, well, it still isn't a blade yet. I haven't got myself to go through those three instances. Its irrational, I know, but I just don't like instancing, especially with groups I don't know. I even have issues going through with those I do know. Not sure why entirely. So I am considering that purchase a wasted one until I finally get myself sorted.

So, I am currently sitting on the following...

Horde: 23k
Alliance: 2.6k

Its only an increase of 3.5k if we are keeping score but then I have been learning something too.

Monday I spent over 1900g on herbs. I got Adder's Tongue for the amazingly low price of 14g a stack and Goldclover was below market value at around 17g a stack. In all I got 1900 Adder's Tongue and 700 Goldclover. after a lot of milling I ended up with 797 Inks of the Sea and 119 Snowfall Ink. I haven't even manage to dip into this stock yet, I am still working through a stock I built up 2 weeks ago.

So, inks aren't a problem at the moment. I am still only concentrating on the Northrend Glyphs for ease and sales are slow. I have started to make the off hand epics too and these are selling at the rate of 1-2 every other day since Monday. My Scribe has already made back the money spent on the herbs.

Pets remain a consistent seller. I have had my engineer keeping up with maintaining stock of the popular pets and I have had good sales with both a select collection from Stormspire and the Alliance. Will need to restock there soon as well.

Borean to Heavy Borean Leather is a slow sale. I keep a number up at all time but sales can be very slow. The price of normal leather is rising very high at the moment whereas the price of heavy stays low. I post all of my sales in stacks of two, mainly to aid those leatherworkers who are looking to buy to purchase the recipes.

One market I am very surprised with and will be trying to work out its swings is the bag market. During the week I am often the only seller of bags and I sell Frostweave at around 60g each and Netherweave in the region of 14g. Nearly all the money I make goes straight back into buying more stock and I take advantage of low prices. I expect the price of bags to lower during the weekend as cloth becomes cheaper so I intend to buy the cloth out, let the prices rise and go back to selling more during the week. At least, that is how I hope it plays out. Will have to see. I have been surprised of prices at times though. I normally pay up to 12g a stack of Frostweave. Midweek, I picked up a number of stacks for 3g. I'm trying to get into the idea of grabbing stock while its cheaper...

I know, I know, I have a lot of stock but then I reckon some of it is just bad stock. I need more good stock. Start whittling away the dead wood that I don't need. I have made a slow start. I am selling the Lovely Black Dresses at 50g a pop and they are moving slowly. Eventually, I'; clear more space while making money at the same time.

So, what's in the future? Well, this weekend I am a little busy, so I am not sure how much I will be getting done. I intend to lazily fly a number of mine and my GFs characters around visiting fires. It is inefficient but I find it a lazy way to make a little money but more importantly maybe put on a level or two. And I have a number of characters I will like to do that for. Beyond that, well I have some more markets I might want to look into. See what I can make and what I can get for it. And maybe use some more of my stock.
