The party is about to begin. The reason prices dropped heavy this past month (i think) is because wildfire news spread that blizzard stopped banning for botting, and instead all detection is client side now. A lot of Chinese jumped on this bandwagon. Yet with this recent mini-ban wave, who knows.
In all honesty this is what happens when a strictly Chinese company takes over the American run/china based companies. Pretty much a 10% profit margin for them is like a 50% profit margin for us.
We need to create workers unions, etc to stop this monopoly. Its just like the lumber disputes, you cannot over harvest the lumber because the price will get so low a lot of the lumberjacks will go out of business. Thus, as soon as a company starts pulling shit like they did (start selling gold at 3$ when market price is 5$), they deserve to be DDosed, hacked, etc, non-stop. Until they raise their price back to market average.
Gameusd like IGE has a major supplier that holds all their gold and pays by chinese CC. The biggest problem for small farm studios is to recieve payment as many cannot make a paypal account. So selling to a company like Pusada is out of the question, their only option is to sell to the Chinese version of pusada (forgot the name, have it in history) which offers a shit price per k, but can pay. Now multiply these small studios of 5-10 works, x100 all over china. And you have a constant supply of cheap gold. Just like Pusada has a constant supply from botters in America/China, to supply IGE.
I get $5 per 1kPrivate buyers for the win! Been selling to private buyers since the glider days, 3 years now. I made 25k last year from gold selling. My customers trust me and I trust them. I give them access to ALL the gold in the guild bank. When they need the gold they just log into their alt take out the gold. I log in every night.. check the bank and send paypal requests the next day. They have up to 1 week to pay me. Most pay the next day or a few days after. Yes I've been scammed like maybe 100k in 3 years. But I've made TONS of $$$. Fuck selling to companies. I know a good few ways of getting private buyers. It does take time to get them.. sometimes you get 0 in 2 weeks and sometimes I get 2-3 in 1 week. I'd be willing to share my methods for a price and only to a few people.. I don't want to fuck myself by sharing my methods with everybody. Anybody can figure these out, you just gotta spend some time thinking and trying things out. http://img69.imageshack.us/i/partyallday.jpg/
