How should i sell enchants??Follow

#1 Aug 31 2006 at 10:01 AM Rating: Decent
What would u say is the best way for a human mage (lv 10) to level up and sell Minor enchantments and taliored goods??

And what would be the easiest way to make money and get Xp from doing this??

you won't be abel to sell minor enchants. really anyone that wants an enchant (and will pay for it) are going to get something better than +2 stamina.

I would offer free enchants to people (or tips if you want). Enchanting won't really make money until you get some of the higher-end rarer enchantments. I took enchanting up to 175 then dropped it for skinning so I can actually make money (Enchanting is a pretty big money sink with little/no profit until 300 - at least from my experience). As for tailoring once you can start crafting greens you can try selling those in the AH and the white sthat you make you can sell those to vendors. Also when you make your greens/blues from tailoring you can then DE them and use the items for enchanting (what I pretty much did to level my enchanting until I dropped it).

Wands aren't bad either..but again, people want everything on a silver plate...one person asked me if I could enchant wands :P...wish I could.

This is what I post on the trade channel

"skill-up enchanter looking for work...low level enchants for free! Tips are appreciated :P"

and I get all sorts of tells "you got minor agi?", "can you do icey?"

even if I posted my skill level they wouldn't understand what that translates into...they are consumers. btw, my skill just hit 62. can't do weapon enchants until 100...sux.

One thing that I did to level my chanting up to artisan level on my pally alt was to spam a skillable chant (orange or yellow) on the same armor piece or weapon until I either reach the desired level for the next recipe, or run out of mats. Unfortunately you waste the chant and the only positive outcome is a skillup, however I believe that chanting recipes of lower lvl than 300 are only there for you to waste in order to lvl your chanting, not for sale since no one really wants them.

To level up enchanting on my alt, (yes i know this is a waste of money), I just kept putting the same enchant over and over again on the same pair of bracers/cloak ect.

I just didnt have the time to wait for people to come and accept my free enchants but if you dont wanna waste materials you could post in general town chat.

Free low level enchants (list them here) and your location. And people will come and get them if they want them.

Or you could try charging for them, but im pretty sure very few people will pay for low level enchants.

Most people are loose with their coin if you don't charge...they're just happy to get the enchants...If I am able to get an enchant for someone, then they will usually fork over 10-15s...depending on how cheap they are.

When I was leveling my encahnting I probably did 95% of my enchants over and over on the same piece of armor. If you want you could enchant an item before putting it in AH... maybe could raise the price by a couple dozen silver.

You might consider using Enchanter Ad Shrinker.

lvl 90 enchanting, minor beastslayer, youd be surprised how many people would pay to have their weapon glow red, mainly lvl 15-30 players :D

As soon as I could do fiery I just waited at the front of orgrimmar "/yell: ENCHANT WEAPON FIERY, FREE WITH MATS" Youll be 290 before you can type it again.

What I did was to go to a starting area (the inn in goldshire is great)farm copper and silver buy a bunch of cloth leather mail bracers enchant them and when a newbie came by I whispersd to them that for 10 silver they could buy the bracers of their choice they run off to farm silver for them and when they return I got paid what I didnt sell I put on AH and still made a good profit

Had on set of bracers go for like 4-5 gold and it was only a +5 health enchant

My big suggestion would be the Ah someone will buy anything if it is there

Even other enchanters who will disenchant stuff for MATERIALS lol

Honestly if you're looking for money then stay WAY away from enchanting. Its nothing but a money sinkhole til 300. Most enchanters tell you not to bother trying to really level it until you're at least near level 60. If you want to make money find something that people are too lazy to go get and go get it yourself and sell it on the AH (like most gathering professions). If you really want to be a high end enchanter, then I reccomend level it using the random stuff you get from quests you can't use, or wait til you're higher level.

That's pretty much what I've done as well. Instead of sinking lots of cash into Enchanting mats, I've just DE'd green and blue drops and quest rewards for the mats. Yes, it is slower than buying bulk quantities at the A-H, but it has saved me a ton of money and made items useful to me that would've otherwise been vendor junk. Around lvl 225 is when my Enchanting skill become useful to others ... +5 mining and things like that.

Are you joking me? I made tons of money as an enchanter but I never really got my skill up I jsut disenchanted everything then sold the mats Usally they would sell for more then what the item would sell for until you get some nice BOE blues then you sell those just use yor brain.
