Darkmoon Faire part 1

This post will be part of a series of posts that will cover various tips and tricks in ways to make extra gold through the Darkmoon Faire.

Cards and Decks

The days leading up to the Faire and even after it you should constantly be checking the ah for cheap cards. Many people will make a few cards and then realize how random it is and give up. These people will post the few cards that they made onto the ah for a low price in order to get out of the card making business. You should buy their cards up and either post them again at a greater price or you could use them to make a deck for a low cost.

During the week of the Faire itself, you should be checking the price of the decks versus the trinkets. Sometimes you may find the decks to be a few thousand cheaper than the trinkets which allows you to easily flip them for a decent profit.

If you feel like being a little bit devious you can during the weeks prior to the Darkmoon Faire buy up all of one card from each type of suit from the ah. This could create a shortage of this card causing your opponents to not be able to create their decks unless they make them randomly. There is a risk in that somebody could make a large amount of these cards and just swamp the market with them but its worth a gamble if you are feeling lucky.

Thanks for reading, that's all for now.
