Private buyers and Guild bank?

**Rajatapaus** · 23.02.2012, 03:06

I just made a guild bank where i deposit all my ores, and also got few private buyers who can access the bank, take what they want, and pay.

Well the problem is, the guild bank log is useless, so if i had 5 bots with all this same system, i never could tell if someone would steal, lets say, 5 stack of ores per day, or even more. Heck, even with only 1 guild bank this could mean trouble.

Is there any way to make this work without C.O.D?

Why are you against COD? I cant see it as being much more to do that then deposit it in a bank tab.

I have just heard that C.O.D is more risky, and I like the bank tab idea very much, only if we could get detailed bank log files :/

Wow, thats nice! What kind of trading you do?

Makes me sad when I think that if I sell 1 guild tab full of ores, i dont come even close

I considered having private buyers pay me a weekly gold amount, up front, for a set # of daily withdrawals. Don't pay, Demote. Putting like priced commodities in like tabs. Just an idea....

Thanks, thats not a bad idea at all!

I have currently set "loyalty ranks" for customers: 1. Suspension (no rights) 2. Trial (20 stacks per day) 3. Member (first tab 100% access) 4. veteran (1 and 2 tabs 100% access).

Maybe I should keep the first 2 ranks as the same, easier to get good customers if you trust them a bit with trial first, then replace Member rank with your payment first plan, and keep the Veteran status for those super loyal bulk customers.

Just an idea :P

Private buyers are the way to go, but I don't use them for everything. I have a guy I cod stacks of carnelian to at 1k/stack, used to COD the ore as well until I decided to prospect it all and make bank! Gems and whatnot sell at a decent rate being the fact that they are used for so much. I have people for inferno ruby and whatnot too but it is a 500g differential per stack and I make way too much by prospecting all of my ore.. Sit still and prospect for an hour or more and just look at how much gold is waiting to be made in your bags :x Oh and if you want to sell on the AH don't sell single stacks like all of the idiots out there, you will end up undercut and having to repost, being stuck with a surplus and then having to post sketchy amounts of auctions... I do about 10-25k on a day to day pretty effortlessly and only use my main account. I just don't post a million single stack auctions, I could turn my 50-80 auctions into way too many to want to keep up with, everything that I prospect sells without effort. My COD guys I could trust with the gbank idea but there is nothing wrong with CODing someone items they want for a price, there shouldn't be an option to do it if they have such a problem with that system ^_^
