    Default Selling boost in HC instances... Profitable?

    Been a good while since i posted here last.

    Ive been gearing my boys, currently sitting at 10,5k HP, 965spelldmg, 9k mana and 29% crit unbuffed.

    I have come to the point where i can 4-character instances, i usually go with a 5th complete random just to have someone to talk to, and to help them out (and they loot for me).
    I farm HC instances for badges so i can buy epic gems, currently selling for 300g apiece on my server. =20g pr badge = 80g pr boss
    (Rolled Mediumpants into a JC to sell these with more ease, selling gems at the same price as others, but tossing a free cut on top...JCs that are SSO exaulted are rare on my server)
    When you add the disenchant from the bosses, its over 100g pr boss i kill. A HC botanica run is 400g in badges and 100g in LPs and 40-80g in void...
    Each HC botanica nets 560g on average, not counting ANY trash loot.

    I have done HC Magister with 4 boys... Record in Slave Pens is 24minutes with 4.

    My question is : Will it be profitable to sell boosts in HCs? and what should i charge for it?

    My thought is to charge 20g pr badge (wich is what i charge when i sell them later on) 40g pr blue item they want, and 100g pr epic drop they want.
    Im still in there.. Killing stuff.. Why shouldnt i sell the spot?

    With those prices i would up my taking on HC Botanica from 560g to 660-700g if they want the epic drop.

    What are your thoughts of this? and any tips on how to start up this business?

    Definitely.

    I don't know what you should charge, but I guess you could gauge it off of what they are allowed to loot. Say I wanted Timbal's for my warlock, I'd pay you 50ish gold per run to get it, or a bulk deal of something like 200-500 depending on my current gold situation. I'm sure demand will be high enough for you to be picky and charge a lot for runs though. 10 gold per badge? 20 gold per badge? I the service was fast and easy, I could see people paying that much and probably more for the rich and lazy.

    I'd start off by recording a fast run with your team of 4 and posting it on the server forums so that they can see you're the real deal. Then post in that same topic that you plan to sell HC runs for X amount of gold and item/badge runs are negotiable.

    So many things you can do :O

    You seem to have the right idea about it already, selling badges + blue/epic items. You could probably charge a little more for the daily heroic hehe.
    No idea on what you should charge, mostly because servers are different. :P You may be on a rich one.

    If you are that confidant about heroics.. sell a few 'afk runs' where the person just pays a rather large fee and is semi afk. Just jumping to stop the auto-logout and to loot.

    I tried selling heroic badges on magtheridon , People didn't seem to be as interested as I thought they would be. So I keep my 5th in so I can get more badges to sell gems :P
