Botting to sell gold?

[Sidalol]

Ok, so I've only ever botted on 1 account really and I've used the gold for my own personal use. Selling it has never really interested me until recently and I'm wondering how it works out for a lot of you. I have a few questions in particular:

- I live in the UK and thus use ? instead of $, how much does that ruin my profit?
- How many bots you need to run idealy to be making a reasonable amount of money?
- How many servers to you idealy need to run on to make a reasonable amount of money?
- How hard is it to find buyers?
- Does it not hurt badly when you get banned and have to buy vanilla, tbc, wotlk and cata again?
- How long, as an estimate, does it take to cover the cost of 3 accounts + gb lifetime?

Any other information you can give me on the subject will be greatly appreciated

Don't know if you've noticed some thread popping up about it but the prices are really low on most servers as we speak. Having a hard time to find any site that buys gold for over ~0.5$/k. But since you'r starting from scratch go into Compare Time Card & Wow Gold Prices, Buy Isk | MMOShift.com for example and look for servers with high prices. Make contact with some gold selling sites, ask them where they need a steadily gold income/week for a good price and tell them that you can provide. Search for private buyers, use the internet - forums, ask friends, advertise in-game, ebay - anything you can think off .

Really can't say about how long it will take to cover the cost of 3 accounts + gb lifetime. All depends on how much you want to bot on your chars. I've quitted botting to sell gold now but I made around 70-100k/week, then ofcourse you also have to level your characters but you can make a decent amount of money as you go. But like I said, scan the market, look for different servers with high demand/stable prices.

I'm prolly way off but anyways - good luck mate !
