Diversity. Diversity cannot be understated. Break things up in every way. Don’t allow yourself to get burned out doing any one thing. Burning out while farming ore and herbs in BfA? Then try farming in BC or Wrath. Tired of gathering altogether? Then run LFR’s. Tired of those two? Then grind mobs for cloth and etc.
Enjoyment. Find a way to enjoy the game, then make gold from that. For me, I prefer to make 5 gold in 5 hours doing something I enjoy, rather than make 10 gold in 2 hours doing something I hate. This is meant to be fun, so don’t punish yourself!
Diversity again! Sell in different size stacks. Learn how many of something is needed to make something, and sell in that stack size (especially dailies). And as always, neat stacks of 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 are nice selling points.
Time of day. I have noticed a massive difference in the amount of materials I farm in the mornings vs afternoons. Furthermore, even in afternoons, there is a significant difference between Tuesday afternoons vs Saturday afternoons.
Servers. Know your server. Each server is different. I covered this earlier. Find the gap in your server, and fill it.
Farming style. Start with profession materials. If you are starting out like me, I would advise against trying to transmog farm (this is all aside from if you actually enjoy doing this, of course). Typically, transmogs (and sometimes pets) are a slower sell even though they can go for quite a bit. I still have pets I picked up from the first day of the challenge. They sell, it can just take time – this overlaps a bit with knowing your server. For beginners, I would advise sticking with gathering professions and progress from there.
Darkmoon Faire. The Darkmoon Faire (DMF) can be a treasure-trove of gold making opportunities. Anything from the transmog items, the fish, the firewater, and the pets can all sell for a decent amount. Plus the Darkmoon Firewater is worth its weight in gold while farming from level 1 to level 120.
Barding and Stirrups. Being on a low-population realm, I was subject to a person who sold them at about 1500g a piece. It was very much still worth the time and effort to purchase these items. The Barding allowed for me to get hit by mobs without having to worry about getting dismounted (this is big for non-tank classes), and Stirrups allowed for me to be farm ore and collect treasures without dismounting. Also, there is mount equipment out there that can prevent you from being dismounted, but there was not any available on my server. One further note, the ‘Is it worth it?’ question regarding Barding and Stirrup will vary from person to person. For me personally, even if it did not increase my net collecting gain (which it did), I would still purchase them for the peace of mind in not getting dismount (and sometimes playing Chicken with mobs)!
Auction House. This hurts my soul a bit to type, because I am not a big fan of spending a lot of time at the Auction House. However… cancelling your auctions that have been undercut and relisting them at a better price heavily impacts your sale rates. With the big drop in sales this month, I did find myself having to be a little more aggressive on the Auction House and make sure my auctions listings were the most competitive.

The Booty Bay Gazette in-game addon shows realm-specific pricing in tooltips for all items on all supported realms. Data includes:

Average market price for your realm over the past 2 days
Average market price for your realm over the past 7 days
Standard deviation of market price for your realm over the past 7 days
Number of days since the item was last seen on your AH
Global median market price right now
Global average market price right now
Global standard deviation of market price right now

The addon is updated three times a week, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings.

You can download it now for free.

This functionality relies on your diligent Auction House scanning, so this does not mean that you no longer need to manually scan on your Realm and Faction. The more players that continue to scan, the more robust and accurate the AuctionDB data will be.

With the introduction of addon version 4.8.8, the application will now update AuctionDB values assuming you have set up your Classic realm on the TSM website settings. A free account is required to set up your realms and access the app.

If you encounter any issues in Classic WoW, be sure to join the Discord server for assistance.

Which price sources do you use in Classic? Have you made a pricing operation in TSM that you're particularly proud of?Further Reading/r/woweconomy subredditDiscord serverstreaming live on Twitch@GumdropsEU
