Not bad. I do it in a similar way. I have a 16k ledger and about 6k at the AH at most times. I would earn more if I was more active with short postings, but it would be too tedious. I make money anyway with mostly 24h auctions. One important thing to know is that you get the AH deposit back whenever an item sells. Hence, if it's a popular item that you expect to sell soon, you could actually lose money by posting it every 2 hours. Example 1: You post item X 6 times for 2 hours with a 20s deposit each time, it sells the 6th time. Now you get 20s back, plus the amount it sold for (you lost 1G in fees). Example 2: You post item X 1 time for 24 hours, for 2G40s. It sells on the 12th hour. Now you get 2G40s back, plus the amount it sold for (you lost 0G in fees). The items that have a high deposit price and low sale price, I tend to keep up only on the 8 hour peak hour, which I've guesstimated to be 17:00-1:00.
Thanks for sharing this info! The one critical thing of note with this is ofc that it varies on your confidence in wether or not the item sells 😂 I can certainly see this being successful with some items tho, again, thanks for sharing :)
@@TheTiredLlama one obvious advantage of doing 2 hour postings is that you can be super competitive. So a 1c undercut and 100% bid is a good strategy, if you are trying to unload a big item against several competitors, because it allows you to undercut them most of the time, unless they do the same. I use that strat sometimes.
Hi The Tired Llama! Thanks for the vids. I am havin an issue where tsm shows my maximum price percentage way too high. Do you have a tip on how to fix that? Cheers
I imagine if you set your maximum price yourself that the issue is probably the price source you are using has been manipulated badly by somebody, which may leave u needing to wait or to use a different source, this happens regularly on rarer items where some fool will post at 100000x what the item is worth and ruin market value for everyone, i hope this helps :)
