My thought process is not to loose gold on auction house cut. Only way to do that is plan ahead. I have stacks of vendor scale fish to bost a new start on another server. also tansfer weapons and items to lvl eng up to 350. have enough gold 8,500 is all thats needed to start a good 5 man grp.

math vendo for vendor scale fish

20 per stack = 120 gold
16 slot bags = 1920 gold
5 16slot bags = 9600 gold

once you add in bank solts you can get past 15k gold with ease. Again this takes lots of fishing. most will not do it but hey I do a lot of things that way
