Great news everyone! A member of my guild has been looking to buy some gold lately, but hasn’t known how to go about it. He’s been afraid to buy from just anywhere because he remembers the chinese gold farmer stings that went down after 3.1 dropped. Plus, it’s not one of those things you can ask the group about in chat. “duz neone no were i kin by gold?!!?!? Yeah, that would go over well with the GMs…. Finally, one day he emailed me wondering if I had any advice on how to go about it. He figured I was the safest to ask, since I’m not picky about that sort of thing.

As you can imagine, I had all sorts of advice for him to work with. So from there he emails me with a few sites he’s found that seem okay. I take a few minutes to look them over. I scrapped one of them because it’s based in Beijing. While I have no problem with China per se, I just don’t think that they take the same care that US based companies do. So that one was out.

From there I advised him to check the outside reviews for the two sites. He got back with me about an hour later and told me that he’d been googling the two sites and neither one was coming up with the best reviews. He just wasn’t comfortable buying from either one.

I figured I’d give him a good site so that he wouldn’t be too discouraged by the whole process. I sent him the link to Toonstorm.com and let him know that I’ve had a lot of luck with them before. He replied and thanked me for the link and said he’d get back with me once he’d finished the order.

I got another email about an hour later saying that he’d had the gold for about 30 minutes. Everything went smoothly, from the confirmation call to the actual delivery (which he told me was about 15 minutes early). He thanked me profusely and we set up a time to meet in game to make a run later. He was glad that he decided to buy wow gold this time around.

Awesome deal, and another great review.

Catch you all later.

Hey everybody! Looks like the good folks at Blizzard weren’t quite done giving us awesome stuff with the last patch. Now the final portions of the Icecrown Citadel have been added and the whole thing looks amazingly epic!

With all of the new areas that have been opened up by this most recent patch everyone out there and their dogs are looking to get the best gear available so they can make the trip to drop the Lich King. Getting near him is tough enough, though. Nothing like another dragon to spice things up in Azeroth, right?

Anyway, I was more than a little worried that prices would go completely out of control with the two major patches back to back like they were. The GMs are watching like hawks for folks like us who prefer to not waste our time and money grinding gold their way. That makes everybody who delivers and farms the gold jumpier (is that a word? If not it is now) than they usually are. And prices did go up most places, but not as bad as I was worried about. The best was at Toonstorm. They really tried to avoid making our lives miserable when Blizzard was making us so happy.

Prices there are really good right now, so I’d advise everyone to go make a buy if you’ve been planning on it. Fifteen bucks is all it will take to get you 2000 gold, which is a nice little supplement. Of course, it gets to be a better deal the more you buy, so don’t limit yourself if you don’t feel the need. And one thing that I’ve always liked about them is that I’ve never had to worry about safety. Between the money-back guarantee and the great people that they use, every buy is easy and safer than any I’ve ever been able to find anywhere else.

Which is why I’m going to sign off a little early this time around. My guild is planning an IC run in about an hour and I want to have plenty of time to get my buy in before I have to meet them.

Take it easy!
