What kinds of crazy things have you done in order to draw attention to your bazaar? Every now and then, when I'm completely full of stuff (enough to sell at least 20k) I'll buy a few poison potion, switch to my lvl 1 blm, go out and get beat till I'm down to about 5 HP, then go stand in front of the San d'Oria AH, drink the potion, and there you have it: 1 dead elvaan in the middle of San d'Oria.

I've noticed that this often gets many: "WTF?! OMG! LMAO! HOW THE HELL'D THAT HAPPEN?!"s, as well as many <insert name here> begins casting raise on Dreamar. /em does not accept raise. And above all, it gets many <insetnamehere> begins browsing merchandise in your bazaar.

Anyone else have any crazy bazaar ideas?

Generally I only use my bazaar on one of my mules. Typically I use my Sandy Mule (mithra), and situate her such that she is the first thing folk see when coming into Sandy. (Though not in the way of course. I hate tripping over mules. Smiley: tongue)

Not very exciting I know, but I typically only mule when I'm going to be afk for an extended period of time.

I only use one general shout when I put my mule out overnight and that's it. Not very effective but meh.

I heard you're no longer rolling in adaman ores Dreamar. :p

Yeah he's competing with me in Zeruhn nowadays.

Or so I gathered from an overheard /shout conversation with Brickewicke in said mines.

Nice guy, Bricke. I've bumped into him a coupla times, always been pleasant.

Smiley: tongue

I have the Michael Jackson approach: I sit my big galka under a tree, just beside those playful children in San d'Oria, lay the trap then WHAM, people start browsing for petite amateur stuff in my bazaar.

Cernunos is my mule btw ^^

Back when I started, I used to do a /shout in the middle of South Sandy that said something like, "Xano's House of Stuff: up to 25% off the AH price~" and then said where I was at, usually down at the open area there in front of the AH in Sandy. After awhile, I gave up on that crap and just left Xanoxonax or Zanozonax over in front of the MH enterance while I was sleeping or AFK for long periods of time.

I typically don't use the bazaar mode myself, but I saw this from a new taru trying to set up his bazaar:

"Ignore all the naked mithra, my prices are lower!"

on a side note about Brickewicke, he's been in my static party for
quite some time (he is a Paladin), and is an all-around super nice
guy.

^^

I always bazaar in the same spot selling mostly the same items. Moshiiii is my mule and hes normally under the tree across from Taikobo.

Ive seen alot of people in bazaar comments that say 1 Fishing gear for 1 gil daily, ect. To keep people comming back.
