"The biggest blunder was to simply craft a batch of goods from the materials that I had and to flood the auction house by listing them all at once.

Justmytwocopper often adds stuff from loads of other goldblogs, this is a post like that with the title: "lessons" learned. I have absolutely no experience in trying to control a market, i gave several markets a shot which results in not having to worry about having no gold.

Personally, i don't think you can pull something off like that. You only need 1 or 2 active players to undercut you, who also have a guildbank filled with netherweave cloth and the prices will drop fast.
