Selling accounts.

[sammmy]

Ok so i've been using honor buddy to lvl and sell accounts and so far. Its been a shit experience not honor buddy but actually selling the accounts. Ive dealt with 10website so far. All 10 appear to be seperate entities at face value. On the interior they are 10seperate cubicles at the same Address.

basically if you type sell wow account into google the first 10 are the same people.

This to me is like coke/pepsi being owned by the same people.

avg ilvl 470 $80. dont care about professions/current gold/alts/achievements/mounts/etc ilvl is it. I hit up the same site using mutiple hotmail accounts spouting the information with samish toons altered the gold value across them it did not make a dint. I said 500k...200k...10k got back same quote for all.

I went from website to website and found that the instant chat program was the same person. From name to greeting to quotes. Felt like that reply plug in we use.

If anyone knows of a company that would pay more than the above pls let me know.

Bottomline here is privately dealing with freinds i made substantially more.

Company and there business models. Wont even come close.

Hope this info helped and Bot Safe.

p.s I consider this a success as the game costs $35 and i just got $80. (game no longer costs that back to original price like $60)

No money in selling accounts unless you find dumb people or you luck on a SoR account loaded with good achivs/mounts/pets/rare transmog gear and can pass that on.
Much more money I found just running accounts to make gold and sell that, its crazy but in my experience true.

In my experience offering power-leveling service on forums dedicated to exploits and the like has made much more then making a toon and selling that. I have 3 sessions so i usually am always pling 2 accounts and then i have a session for my own personal account if i feel like using it. change the ip and use virtual machines for the accounts your pling otherwise you will screw yourself and your customers.

Agreed. Not worth it compared to other types of botting. Especially not when you are selling to companys who also has to make money off the accounts.

What you have to ask yourself is this, could you in the time it takes to level up that account to a standard that can be sold instead of just farmed gold to sell and made more?
Even with super low chinese prices in the time it takes to level an account to 90 and get it geared you could of made more gold to sell off instead.
Take into account your capital costs (ie. buying the account and expansions) then your time spent levelling/gearing it, I highly doubt you can level up quick enough and gear it before selling for better profit.

Step 1. Work out your capital costs.
Step 2. Work out how long it takes you to gear it.
Step 3. Use 10k a day as baseline as what a level 85 (yes not even a level 90) can make to calculate your "income".
Step 4. Do some basic economics, if your time is better spent farming gold to sell (often without having need of MoP expansion) then creating and levelling accounts to sell is not worth as much.

Best bet is to play SoR roulette on new bnet accounts with fake ID's, if you get a good SoR account (lots of achivs/mounts/pets/transmog gear) then sell that off.

But honestly there is few things better than just farming gold to sell especially if you pick up private buyers as then you get a better return on your time.
