Update – Am I swimming in gold yet?

Well, not yet.

I’m getting the hang of using my crafting skills to make decent gold in WoW, but I am far from the “1000g with 30 mins of playtime” league. I suppose this could partly be due to the economy on my server (Proudmoore), and also due to my lack of skill.

I’ve been testing the waters, by “flipping” items on the AH, and with my professions Enchanting (making scroll of enchant), Jewelcrafting (various cuts, but mainly Cardinal Rubies), Leatherworking (Arctic Furs and Armor Kits) and Tailoring (Bags and cloth) with variable results.

Jewelcrafting seems to be biggest money earner at the moment, while enchanting mats are moving faster than the scrolls themselves. Armor kits are a bit lackluster, and bags are doing fairly decent when there are no crazy undercutters.

I managed to flip some nice items like Primordial Saronites and Runed Orbs, closely following market trends. It’s always a toss up whether to spend a few thousand gold, or to pass on a seemingly good deal. I guess in this game, “no pain, no gain”!

Overall, since I started focusing on making gold and playing the AH game, I’ve gained an additional guild bank slot (1000g .. ouch!), accumulated stacks of cloths, leathers and herbs, as well as upping my AH toon’s gold from 6-7k to 10-12k!

Not too shabby, me thinks :D
