The Darkmoon Faire Auction House Feeding Frenzy

The Darkmoon Faire is going on right now in Elwynn Forest as some of you with deep pockets, or Inscription, are probably already aware of. The big concern with the Faire these days is obviously the trinkets you can get from completing the various decks of cards available in the game. For someone with the Inscription profession, building those cards and selling them on the Auction House is a main staple of your big money selling activity.

In the days leading up to the Faire and during the course of the event the pricing on cards for the Nobles Deck are pretty out of control. On my server the average card goes for around 1,000 gold while some of the cards can tip the scale at 1,500 to 2,000 gold each depending on demand.

A complete Nobles Deck can usually be seen for sale as well with a price tag usually hovering above the 15,000 gold mark. Just last night I saw one for sale for 9,000 gold but I foolishly waited around before buying it and squandered my chance. By the time I decided to buy it the deck was gone and re-listed for 15,000 gold. Oh well.

For Inscriptionists, who have to spend most of their Auction House time trying to sell constantly undercut glyphs, this week is a great opportunity to make a boat load of gold in a profession that otherwise can be a bit of a struggle to make big profit in.

So if you’re looking for a Nobles Deck and have the money to spend you have until next Monday the 16th to get your cards in order (quite literally) to get the Darkmoon Card: Greatness trinket. And, on the other side, if you’re a Inscriptionist you better be hurrying to pump out as many Nobles cards as you can because this week the market will never be higher until the Faire comes back around on April 6th.
