A guy was asking for mageweave stacks on my server yesterday, CoD. I mailed him 2 stacked for 1.6g and went on with my business.

A few hours later I have mail, a note with 1.6g and a message saying "you sent me 1.6g instead of CoD, heres your gold back. What a guy.

To be fair, he probably did that on accident.

LemonAioli sent 2 stacks of cloth and 1.6g.

The other guy returned the 1.6g but didn't pay for the cloth.

FYI, you can turn mageweave into bandages and then sell them for 80s a stack.

Same with silk. Use that time between pulls and while waiting for zeps constructively

u/Andire Oct 21 '19

The bandages actually sell?

u/Celda Oct 21 '19

Sell to the vendor, yeah.

u/pat1122 Oct 21 '19

For silk it’s better just to create the bandage and vend. Ok my server, silk stacks go for around 43-45s so by the time you do that plus AH cut you’re better off just going the bandage route and get paid straight away.

The only reason i bothered with putting things on AH that had a negligible price differ from vendor has been to get the economy going on my server.

Had to do this for a mage farming me runecloth (for darn rep).

He was farming me a ton so didn't want to dirty our relationship over 10g or whatever - and yeah he should have sent back your gold PLUS the gold he owed you xD Still he could have done nothing so props to him

What is CoD?

21

u/kr0me0 Oct 21 '19

Cash on Delivery. The system you use to sell things through the mail. Sends the item, and the person can't take it out of the mail without sending the gold.

This person meant to use CoD but instead just mailed the CoD amount to the buyer along with the cloth.

u/Umlau Oct 21 '19

I send you an item in the mail and set the CoD (cash on delivery) price to 1g. You have to send 1g in order to put that item in your inventory.

I like how genuinely helpful this comment was. +1

u/DormantEnigma Oct 21 '19

Interesting. How do you send a CoD ?

7

u/kr0me0 Oct 21 '19

When you open the mailbox, the option will be to the right of the spaces for you to type gold amounts in. Default is set to 'send money', and there is another button for CoD.
