If you look in the screenshot you can see that he whispers the buyer making it impossible to be an alt. (Unless he multiboxes.)

You can't buy your own auctions, unless it's on another account

You can't buy your own auctions as far as I know.

Didn't know that. Then he/she got a friend to do it.
I updated my post to show why he/she's fake.


I am pretty sure that he/she wrote all that stuff before his/her friend bought it, scrolled back up after it was purchased, and took a screenshot.

Proof:
In the 7 seconds that passed between getting the notification "has bought", all this happened:
OP says "omg ty" (must be within 1 second of getting the notification)
Wooptiheall writes in the guild chat (must type each message in 1.5 seconds)
Buyer answers with "lol np" (must type in 1 second)
OP says "Why did you buy" (must type in 1 second)
OP opens the auction house menu and takes a screenshot (has 1 second to do this)

This all has to occur with no time lost between each message, meaning no reading time at all.

Logics flawed, the AH window does not update realtime unless you close the window and re-open, or move to another tab to refresh the timers.

Explain: If he opens the window as soon as the auction is sold, takes even 30 minutes to write those messages, the timer in the AH will still say what it said when he opened it.

In other news this is the professions forum, kinda leads to be believe it belongs here :/ stop hatin.

My view on this thing...

1. OP puts this in the AH for 5k, wanting to brag about something on mmo-champion.
2. OP tells friend to buy the Fortune Card
3. OP sends the gold back to the friend and takes a screenshot.
4. OP brags on mmo-champion and gets epeen rank 2.

And he would have gotten away with it if it weren't for you meddling mmo-champs >

Damn, I thought I had him/her pinned down. Oh well, on to another thread. ^^

anyone got any similar stories?

A buddy of mine got the Vial of Sands sniped passing across the neutral AH for 10s. He was, understandably, irate. Filed a bunch of tickets and spammed the guy who bought it for days. Turns out it's a perfectly legit tactic, and it's easy to configure Auctioneer to do it for you pretty much automatically.


EDIT: At, to the OP: The UI. It is so...plain. Addons are your friend!

Lots of people have 2 accounts.
You can run 2 copies of wow on the same computer, and log on to both accounts at the same time.
I do it all the time to run my low level alts thru dungeons to get specific gear.

Account A. can also buy items off the AH from account B, and vice versa.

and pay 26€/30$ a month? I'd rather play with some friends that rushes me.

I had a friend who managed to sell Vanishing powder stacks (the lvl 80 glyph remove dust in case I misspelled it) for something like 1500g a stack, I really dont know how that ever happened but he earned something like 6-7k gold that way )

[capslocked]

So you were rude to somebody who accidentally did something? You must be proud.

Eh, you know that feeling when they're not on at the time, and you REALLY want to get something...
Sometimes they don't want to run a dungeon 5, 10, 15 times in a row in a 3hr period to get those items either :P
Less hassle for a mere $3.75/wk...

[methwow]

Im still tying to figure out why you have not got blink nor sheep binded

.......
no got nothing

How was she rude? o_O

Back in 2007 when I was saving money for my normal mount skill which was 100g. I used to farm blood elf Bandit masks which took me a couple of hours to get one only to put it on ah for 10s instead of 10g -.-' Worst waste of time ever. (That was much money for me back then ^^)

I guess I'm the only one who doesn't intentionally try to rip people off.
