I'm not going to sell it because I'm a wizard and i'm going to use it, but next best in AH is 35 mil, so I'm assuming it would be around 25-30mil

Just started with this buy low sell high shenanigans.

Bought an amulet for 20k sold for 85k (after blizzards take)

Bought another amulet for 20k hoping to get >100k.

Doing this is as fun as playing. Really appeals to the economics nerd in me. I'm part of a market correction!

It was a lvl 40 amulet, with a whole bunch of vitality and intelligence, with some resists (lightning i think) and some +experience.

Amazing that people will buy lvl 40 items, but there were heaps listed so I thought what the heck.

can't sorry, but it had about 180 dex 37% crit damage and a socket. Search for items with empty sockets, buy them, put a gem in and resell. People will search for >210 dex so this won't show up on their radar until you actually put a gem in.

Well I find Quiver's like easily the hardest item to judge how good it is as a non-DH player. For all I know I have vendored a ton of really good ones.

Based on your success I guess high ias, high dex and then disc or hatred as bonus sells?

Dex, IAS 14 or 15, crit Chance, +elementar arrow, max disci are the best stats on a quiver

Stats were roughly 880 dps 1h + socket sword (1.4 aps)

Could have added another 100k to it, but I had a lot of my own stuff I wanted to sell too, so I wanted to get rid of it asap. Depending on how much you farm, keep in mind that your 10 AH slots are sometimes more valuable than the items full worth.

Jesus, 100k? That's insane. What class was it itemized for? Just ended up buying my own pair for 3.5m. 12% IAS, 7% movespeed, 54 int and 61 hps and some thorns/arcane res.

I bought 20x (didnt expect people to want it that much) Amu 15ias 111vita for about 9k sold each for 65k and I actually sold all of them in just a couple hours
Bought about 200 amus 195str 99vita for about 9k sold each for 40-45k
Many rings 14eg random add, 15ias 69+ int/dex each for about 7-8k, selling for 20-35k
And many more... Everything is from that Act3 merchant, so Im not even robbing actual people xD

PS: You can make 10M+/day doing this if you are lucky Though normal profit is around 2-5M... Everything in this game is simply so disappointing, anytime I see item I want I dont care about 1-2M overprice it means nothing to me - in D2 you had to be hunting runes and doing mf runs for weeks, here everything is so badly designed that most really really really good items are simply worth not more than 5-10 hours of my time lol. Not to meantion that even stupid gold runs can make about 400k gold in hour... And if you are rly dedicated, you can be selling items from vendors while doing gold runs, make 15M in day and build decent char with just that.

Just sayin´

I have always wanted to give back to the TL community which raised me up from a BGH newbie to an average iccup player, so here is my gift back to you guys. My friends and i have been doing this since week 2 of release and have averaged about 14million gold profit per 8 hour auction house session. I did it manually until they started up two bots to do it for us.

The item is called "The Three Hundredth Spear" and it is a low dps legendary weapon, but it has magic find. Probably a lot of you guys know about it, but you probably don't know that people are constantly putting them up for prices as low as 50k to 500k. Each one sells for about a million gold atm. Here are some screen shots to show you guys:

One of the keys to buying things is adjusting buyout prices because of the way searches work across the auction house servers. We only realized this because all three of us had been doing it at the same time and seeing completely different items than each other based on the buyout we input, even though the buyout amount should have included the spears the others were seeing. My friends are still doing this today and making a ridiculous amount of gold from it and you can too TL! I look forward to hearing about your successes, but remember, there are bots doing it now so if you want to make as much as we did you would have to get your own (I am not condoning the use of AH bots, just being honest about our methods).

Well I didn't sell high because I'm using it, but after doing a search for helmets with 120+ dex, 3 crit chance, and a socket listed a couple of pages starting at probably somewhere around 400k. So I said well let me search for 4 or more crit chance and only 2 were listed one for 4 million and the other for 4999 gold so I insta bought it and actually got it! So used to getting an error saying the item was already sold.

So 4999 gold probably worth ~2,000,000, maybe more and the person thought they were putting it on the rmah for $49.99.
