I wonder how many players have fallen for the scam some NPCs are pulling. You know the one where they're selling items they actually have in store for ridiculous prices on the BMAH. I actually find it pretty funny

I've seen one of the cats from Elwynn Forest be sold for over 120k.
I so want to know who it was who bought it xD
yea i seen some ridiclious prices for vendor pets also.
though havent seen any go for 120k though. must be the biggest facepalm ever if he/she figures out it came from a vendor for less then a 1g
There's another thread on this somewhere I read a day or two ago, and I'll quote the quote that someone posted in there:
"A fool and his money are soon parted."
Theres a bug with the BMAH that makes you bid on wrong items, im not really sure how it works (could be due to AH addons) but all I know is that someone in my guild wanted to bid on an item but ended up bidding on a cat instead. He has a screenshot where it says in the chat that he bid on the item but when he clicked on the item it did not say he had the highest bid. After checking all the items on BMAH he saw that he had the winning bid on a pet. He reported it to blizzard but they didnt want to help him and he ended up with a 10k bombay cat. This is the first time I've heard about it on my server so it must be quite rare but Im sure its not a one time only either.
Some items are only sold by say Alliance vendors.
People who pay that much for pets clearly have more than enough gold to waste 120k on a pet.

Nothing lasts forever, as they say.
But at least I can casually play Classic and remember when MMORPGs were good.
My server doesn't have many bidders on the T3 Paladin. MY CHANCE!
They're not exactly expensive. It costs less than 10g to buy all of the pets from either the Horde or the Alliance.
Just get mining or herbalism on a level 5, farm for half an hour, sell it. Buy the pets. Better yet just get a friend to send you 10g via the neutral ah.
It doesn't justify spending over 100k on a pet worth 50s xD
And what's stopping the Horde players from getting a level 5 human and running him to the crazy cat lady? Or even level 1 and getting a lift from a cross-faction friend if possible?
I never understood people who willingly cut their available game content in half by playing only one faction and then complain their faction can't get something. The option to create an opposite faction char is right there.
I honestly believe that when you see a item as common as a cat on the ah go for rediculous amounts of gold is because of accidental clicks and the not having the ability to cancel bids
out of shits and giggles on the ptr i bid 75k for the robot chicken and for some reason the bid went to some common pet that sells from a vendor i thought damn but imagine my surprise when i was outbid on the common pet now im sure this may either be a bug or bad design of the BMAH
