It started with a trickle, then it became a flood, and now it’s practically a plague. It seems everyone is selling their World of Warcraft accounts on e-bay. So what are you to do? You’ve labored over this account for some time, built up a great character, collected some rare equipment and had a lot of fun, but it’s time to move on. Then you go to e-bay to try and get some payback on your character, and every man and his dog is undercutting you and drawing attention away from your precious auction. To make it worse, Blizzard is throwing their weigh around and getting auctions canceled for the age old reason ‘because they can’.

Well your in luck, because there are a few little tips and tricks that can help you sell that account and get a good return on it.

Account: The first thing to look at is a general e-bay selling tip – and that is that your member account is a sales-tool in itself. Take a look at your name – is that the sort of person you want to buy something off? It may seem a little thing but think of the psychological effect of buying an account off the following names ‘HonestWOWfan’, ‘Somestupidkid’, ‘HardenedCrim’. It’s a bit of a no-brainer which one you want really. I’m not suggesting you would pick some of the crazier names – but take a look at what you do have. You’d be amazed how much difference it can make. Now we’ve got the name sorted out let’s talk about the two big things people look at when considering buying off you. Number of sales and feedback. In both cases the higher the better. If you created this account just to sell your WoW character – it is highly recommended you go through a few auctions first and get your number of sales up. Buy a few e-books(you can often get them for $0.01!) and make sure you get feedback for them. Your feedback should be 100%. If you have a lot of sales it can go lower, but even then you should have high 90’s. Do everything in your power to avoid your first negative feedback. Once you drop from 100% to 99% people will scan through your feedback looking for the negatives.

This may all seem superficial, but the more ‘trustworthy’ the account appears the more interested bidders you will have. Consider it from the bidders point of view. They are spending hundreds of dollars on ‘virtual’ goods. They don’t want to think that after sending you money you will vanish.

Second: The Auction: The settings you choose for the Auction are VERY important. As I mentioned earlier, Blizzard have an annoying habit of trying to get WoW auctions cancelled. The best way to get around this is to make your Auction fast. Set it to a 24 Auction as this prevents Blizzard canceling it, or at least makes it very difficult. To cancel an Auction they need to file a complaint with E-bay, and anyone who has ever been through that process with e-bay will tell you what a circus that is. The pleasant side effect of the 24 hour Auction is that it will put you higher up the page, as E-Bay lists auctions closing soon first. If your Auction doesn’t sell you can just relist it as a new 24 hour Auction and once again it goes up the top of the list.

Finally: The Add: If everything else is in place, and your add sucks – you probably won’t even get a whiff of interest. There are too many other options out there for people to waste time. Precious few browse through a bad add. So get the information out there as quickly as possible. Start with the class, level and server. Then add features. What is a feature? Any cool equipment, any special skills. The key here is important information first – they details. E-bay lets you use a whole host of markup language – use it to your advantage. Make your add the best it possible can be. By the time you are finished crafting your add, you should want to buy your character yourself!

Hopefully this guide will be of assistance. You put a heap of time into this character – go get your monies worth!
