Guild of Elite Merchants (NA)

[stillman]

We have known forever that teamwork gets better results. This group is for players (who use the RMAH) to reliably trade in-game with one another and increase their stockpile of niche market goods. With only 10 items allowed on each AH at once, this group will speed up player trades among a large group of reputable friends.

As profiteers, we all want to stockpile and trade fast, overcoming the intimidation of gem grind, gold sinks, and maximum stack quantities of 100 materials. Maybe you want to form that perfect party of high mfers without the bs and unreliability of strangers. Or, maybe you just want to clear stash space with a contact instead of haggling with random noobs. What if you could know the prices of items X, Y and Z just by asking the group instead of hunting down data elsewhere? Time is money, and every little convenience helps. Post your ideas. The night is young.

Finally, a trading group. I'll be on NA servers, but possibly at AUD RMAH.

I've been thinking of a guild of traders.

Things the guild can offer is:

• Price listing, made of member's updating prices as they close auctions. With enough input, we would be quite accurate in 'latest' market prices, enabling everyone to have a recent historical record of auction sales to guide them instead of their own historical record.
• Direct trading, with Gold or off-website $$, enable higher margins to both parties. Would probably be the biggest benefit of joining.
• Market strategies, theories and programs. Pooling available info and tools to make us better sellers.
• Forum: Brag about your latest great sale, or some super cheap item that you got. Announce new methods of cheating buyers or sellers to warn us, or discuss which kind of affix is going to be valuable as people start entering Inferno, etc.

I would think that to increase the pool of info and buyers/sellers, it would be a non-exclusive guild so you can still be primarily from another Clan/guild but still enter and enjoy (most?) of the benefits. Top management would be exclusive members of course.
