BMAH Ridiculousness......

[Esploratore]

No, I have no idea how people were. This is on US-Emerald Dream, and bids appeared to be still getting made after 7.0 went live (and M. Goya was gone).

Has to be some sort of bug, or maybe the server was just slow at registering new bids made pre-patch? Warlock tier 3 went from 36k to 75k to 126k all post-patch according to my garrison tracker.

Very odd, I won a black tab at 10,5k and it goes for over 3 times more, furthermore bananas went for only 19k and sells for 8 times more, no bids were registered, if you're absolutely sure it happened then it's a bug on your server.

They definitely wont, if this was true, youd see the inflation in prices already

Well I'm sure seeing it now. Roughly every piece of gear (on the normal AH) is now selling for at least 100g.

Of course, at the moment, that's good for me.

As far as BMAH prices go, the items that used to be capped might well sell for less, because people can't cap them any more to guarantee a win, and are willing to bid lower prices and see how it goes.

I have a Swift Zulian tiger and Plagued Proto-Drake that were both obtained the hard way... the right way. The BMAH is total bullshit imo.

Bet you anything the number of people who got those from the BMAH is tiny compared to those who got them the original way. Sounds more like you did it the easy way.

Absolutely BMAH is the hard way unless you are insanely lucky or can afford to buy every unclaimed container on your server.

Yes, totally agree, or well, if we want to compare the time\effort it took to get 953.000 on a low pop realm during wod with plagued proto back in wrath, bmah might be a bit easier here, but for tiger or raptor there's no comparison, bmah cappers deserve them more than those who got lucky, only people who got them with 200-300 runs might compete.

I won everything I bid on right before the servers went down for pre-patch

[Daan]

A few weeks ago, someone on EU-Draenor bid goldcap on "Brawler's Pass".

LOL I saw that!

[Esploratore]

Mr excellion, same here, except that I got a very slow login screen at the last relog so couldn't bid on bananas for like 2 seconds, had opened the bmah table, so lost it, went for 20k and sells for 150k.

[johnwill]

Poor guy prolly had a stroke, i have been flipping. LOL

[Volitar]

700k for my last piece of mage t3. 12k for my last piece of Hunter T3.

I know it's old, but there's no equivalent thread in recent times: this is one of the worst wastes I've ever seen:

Would need to zoom in because they're 3 screens atop of each other, but someone bid 600k on bananas, a single bid, now that it's worthless, and then I showed the AH price on that realm and the max eu price, which is still no less than 35 times cheaper!

[Coldkil]

Some people just have so much gold they can waste that much without having any kind of issue.

Also, you can straight out buy gold so its value is dropping everyday.

Well, ten million gold is US$880 today, so yeah, $20 for a 200,000 gold item is relatively peanuts, but not THAT many people are going to drop the better part of a grand on a Brutosaur or whatever. Sure some will of course, but that's a whale of a different color.

I saw someone win the swift white hawkstrider a couple days ago go for over 2 million. I personally have seen it drop about 4 times, between Timewalking and farming it when it was current content.

The BMAH is designed for boosters to cash out much like selling blizzard game keys. It's for people rocking over 60million gold from selling carries all expansion.

It's really just best to ignore it if your not one of them.
