Buy WoW Gold?

If you have a higher level character, over 60 say, it's easy to do a spot of grinding, or to use one of the gathering professions to make a decent amount of Warcraft gold.

But what happens if you only have a level 40 character or lower? Yes, you can work the AH for some gold and can easily make 30 or 40 gold for an hour of effort, once you know your way around. If this is enough for your needs, great, but what if you need 1,000 WoW gold to create a BG twink?

Some of the gold sellers are now offering 1,000 WoW gold for less than $50. This means you are effectively working for $1.50 an hour or less.

Would you take a job for $1.50 an hour? Even the crappiest job will pay far more than this.

If you would, or you enjoy the gold making process, then carry on. I don't personally buy gold because I enjoy the process of making my own WoW gold, so the time spent doesn't really matter to me.

If the whole gold-grind thing is boring to you, then you may want to consider buying WoW gold. This is against Blizzard's TOS and could get your account banned. I've never heard of this happening, but there's always a first time. To date, they've just gone after the gold sellers.

The trouble is there are a lot of dodgy sellers out there that will take your money and never deliver the gold. Try chasing some guy in China for your $50. You have to be really careful who you buy from, both from the point of them delivering anything, and in their professionalism in delivering the gold without a GM noticing. A friend, who does buy WoW gold (and has a full set of purple gear on every character), told me that Guy4Game deliver the goods. They have 24 hour English-speaking support and a toll-free US phone number.

Don't tell anybody I told you, ok?
