Anyone tried selling gold on the RMAH before? Will it catch Blizz's attention and get me banned?

Just wondering.
 
I've pretty much thrown all caution away and have sold 20m~ on the RMAH over the past week and it seems to have processed fine and gone into my paypal without my acc being banned.

Funny story last night I put up 48m and then later on decided that I would need some gold as bank so I cancelled the auction planning to put some back up. It seems that when I cancelled the auction someone must have bought the gold out because it said it was processing the full 48 million on the sold tab but in my email it said only 8mill sold and I did actually receive 40mill back from cancelling the auction.

But this is where things got weird, apparently my auction was somehow still on the AH and the following happened (keep in mind I only ever put up 48mill for sale but that was cancelled too, adding up the following sales far exceeds 48mill):

Auctions.webp

The sales tab still said only the 48mill was in process but once I put up another set of gold and that sold the emails from 1969 stopped. Still waiting to see if it somehow processes all those auctions and pretty sure this is what will somehow get me banned if I do get banned

The appears to be a fault on Blizzard's part. I've actually got quite abit of gold to sell - 300+million to be exact, and i'm wondering if its worth throwing all of them on the AH.
 
the thing with RMAh it all comes down to how quick you want the money, and remember with fees the most your gonna get is about $1.8 per mill (selling at the minimum on RMAH )

alot of forums, people are buying around $1.6-1.8 anyway so it really does come down to how quick you want the cash. also safety is a concern as at least with selling on the RmAH you dont have to worry about someone doing a chargeback.

I can wait for the money - no problem. Just wondering if selling such a big amount on the RMAH will get my account flagged and banned.
 
you'll never sell that much anyway.... i always put 10mil at a time and when it expires i have sold 2-3 mil and i have the rest mil back i had tried more than 10 times and never sold more than 3mil
 
Are you guys selling EU or US? I heard the EU market is so much worse than the US one... :(
 
EU - put up 25.000.000 once, sold 600k.

guess the EU market is much worse because its actually allowed to sell gold on ebay here. so we have to compete with all those big china companys on ebay. prices are less then half on ebay so ppl will rather buy on ebay then ingame.
 
Are we talking eBay ToS or Blizzard ToS?

ebay ToS, dont know about blizzard but it doesnt matter anyway. gold is all over the place @ eu, just check for yourself. have sold almost 400m myself there..

Ye i've sold over 200m myself, just didn't know it was on eBay : )
 
Put 30m up after I was banned - was hoping it wouldnt sell, as I needed gold to regear new chars, but it all sold :-)

If it hadn't sold wouldn't it be stuck with your banned account 0_o ?
 
Have sold 60k (40+20) before I was banned a few weeks back, and received payment. Ban was due to the rapid Sarkoth runs, not the RMAH sales.

Depends on ebay region.
You can sell virtual good on ebay.de, but you can't on ebay.co.uk
 
Sold 10mil within 8 hours of listing yesterday. 2.50 per mil.

US RMAH
 
Sold 2*5 mil on EU, 2.5 euro/mil, before taxes! Good price! 1.8euro/mil!
 
I've sold nearly 20m so far on EU, but my last 10m wouldn't sell, or well, 800k of it.

Right now, that same 10m isn't selling again, for a day, got 17 hours left.

Thinking of switching to a US account and just sell there. Will take a hit though, since USD is worth less compared to EU.
