You Can Sell Anything

I’m sure that you, Dear Reader, know who Turpster is. He is the inimitable Turpster, the_T, vaunted WoW player, AIE guildy, TIPOAA host, and Internet celebrity extraordinaire. Turpster pays on my server (sometimes), and back before Cataclysm he sent me some Saronite Ore to prospect. I did, and I saved the letter to remind myself to send Turpster some gold, or the gems, or something. (I can’t remember if I ever did… Turpster? Any ideas?)

Fast-forward ahead to today. I noticed the letter in my bags, went into trade, and said, repeatedly, “WTS [Plain Letter} written by THE TURPSTER! Pst”

What's Turpster worth? 10g, it seems

Lo and behold, a few minutes later, I had sold the letter to someone for 10g. Granted, it’s not a king’s ransom, and it’s not like when Kungen made hundreds by posing for screen shots. But it ain’t too bad either.

A few other notes:

-JC is officially a cash cow. And I now know that I can tank a market with a post, at least on my home realm. My Chimera’s Eye post killed the market by about 40% on Earthen Ring. Not good times, even if it was a dumb strategy.

-Euripides wrote a great post on Wow Insider regarding fortune card.

-Mageshadow’s Engineering guide for Cataclysm is great.

-Gevlon has been doing a great job talking about PvP and Tol Barad.

Hopefully your holiday was great, Dear Reader. If I don’t get a chance to write something before, I’d like to wish you a Happy New Year from everyone here at P3P. Have fun, and be careful out there, kids.

GL! /bow

-Jimm

    JC was always a cash cow! Especially when combined with Enchanting.

    I am selling ~100 glyphs every couple days but the margins are nice and it does not require as much work as in WotLK.

    Questing in Cataclysm is very boring to me and I am losing interest in WoW … I will likely take a break in March when Rift is released.
