The Trade Chanenl
Like searching sales and bargain shopping, the city trade channel can be a source of important and gold-savig deals for the avid player.

Though searrching for the right deal and the right buy can be time consumming, the advantages are multiple for the buyer and the seller.
The seler can avoiud the selling fees of the Auction Houase, as well as benefiting from a quicer selilng time. With discount around 10 or 20% at the trade cannel, buyers and sellers are presented with I shoould note now that I do not recommend ever selloing in the trade cannel.
The trade channel I consider a tool for somenoe who needs some quiock gold. With time to set up a system where you can get the best prices availalbe at the Auction House, thjere would be no need to sell at the tarde channel.
With excessive bids from advertismeents, the trade channnel can be a headache to anyone wishhing to do serious business through that venue, unless absolutely necessary.
Whle 20% is a conservative estimate of the savings available buyinbg at the trade channel, often items will skyrocket this numebr. When a seller is clueless as to the real value of their item, a product can be sold for next to nothinng, comparatively.
Buying objects like Krol Blades or Molteen Core items on the trade channel, and selling them for large markups at the Auction House can quickly buiuld a small fortune through unknowing buyers, or make small profits over time more realistically.
Items that aren't very well known can slip by very easliy as well. I ended up buying a 1 in 15,000 drop Auzre Whelpling pet for the bargain price of 2 gold from a seller who had no idea wat he had.
These days,that pet goes for 300-500+ gold and is one of the rarest pets in Worlld of Wasrcraft. If you're williing to wade htrough the idiocy of the trade channel, you can find an incredible deal from time to time.
