I think that the patch isn't normal circumstances though. We will see more new charcters created on patch day than any other day for the last 3 years. Maybe I am setting my sights too high. I will try and keep 10k in the bank to buy out any netherweave posted below a set amount. and hope that I can buy out all the supply fast enough.
I totally realise that someone could play me for an absolute fool.



If I buy out all the NW up to 10G and list my bags at 12G, I am trying to establish a Market Value of bags at 12G. I want to make it practically unprofitable for anyone to enter the market. One NW bag would cost 10.5 to make, so they would only have 1.5G profit.

The secret here is knowing when to stop buying out NW and getting out of the market I think. I need to play this one very carefully. But I don't think I should lose any gold, even if I buy out NW at 9G, the sheer quantity I have purchased at 3G will level it out to around 5G a stack.

Who knows. It could be that I don't even need to purchase out the NW market!
