I've discovered a flaw/scam/PITA about the auction

<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>People
are now trawling it for "good deals" ie prices that are less than the vendor
cost or resale.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>e.g.
item X on sale for 4,000 GP - its book rate is 32,000 GP which means if you get
it for anywhere from 4,000 GP -5,500 GP you can broker sell it at a small
profit for about 6,000 GP.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>So
...... couple of things</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>1.
Don't waste your time getting obsessed with a cheap deal in the AH. If you want
an item don't simply press "bid" as this is for schmucks!!! Simply take the gold
value of the item, work out its no "resale profit value" and input higher than
that as your bid amount.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>e.g.
+4 Longsword is worth 32,000 GP. Its on the AH at 5,000 GP. Bid at 7,000
GP because anyone with reasonable haggle can broker trash it for 6,000 GP.
By bidding 7,000 you are removing speculators from your bid and have a much much
higher chance of winning the auction.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>2. If
you do lose a bid (and it was for a low amount) ie in the example above circa
5,000GP then don't be upset if you REALLY want the item, as odds are it will be
in the relevant brokers hands within 20 mins. However now you will now pay "at
least" 32,000 for it.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>On a
different note - equipment lists at level 7.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>If you
are speculating on the AH there are a few things we all should have at least one
of by now. AND as a fixed group we should all have 1-2 items each to boost our
"prime" party skill.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Genric
we should all have or be working on getting.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>1.
item of underwater breathing/action</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>2. an
adamantine weapon of some kind</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>3. a
ghost touch weapon of some kind</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>4. an
item of feather falling - preferably permanent eg boots - if not possible then
at least something that gives you the spell a few times a
day</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>5. an
item of jump (similar to feather falling)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>6. a
bykesh weapon of some kind (although not needed this myself
yet)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>After
that we should all have items that boost our main skills by
7.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>e.g.
Leigh should have a few items to boost all the thiefy skills by 7 (disable trap,
open locks etc etc)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Mike
should have same for Search, Listen, etc</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>you
get the idea.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Basically when we get to NPC, like the giant in VON2 - Leigh should be
popping on a +7 bluff item, quaffing a pot of eagles splendour - taking whatever
buffs are available and then talking to the NPC. Most NPC's will allow this to
happen mid conversation so its not even player knowledge
(really).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Like I
said - just something to watch out for if you are trawling the
AH.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=399010310-27112006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Oh -
btw - somebody other than me (usually the bard/rogue - but doesn't have to be)
needs to start being able to use scrolls well. Specifically "raise dead". Its
gonna be a hit for somebody - but the party absolutely needs it - and it can't
be me, as that person is needed to raise me so I can raise everyone
else.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
