Cornering the World of Warcraft Markets

Posted by Zonk on Wednesday April 6, 2005 @08:30AM from the that's-a-lot-of-dosh dept.

Terra Nova has a post up about a financial development on the World of Warcraft server Elune. From the article: "two players recently bought out the entire contents of the Auction House in Ironforge, with the exception of premium-priced high-level weapons and armor (e.g., they bought all the trade goods) and then resold all of what they bought at a higher price." They go on to discuss the event in the context of Massive Game economies and the results that tradeskills can have on monetary inflation.
