Every week a new Gold guide comes out and 9/10 times the guide is just a rehashed version of a previous guide with no real information. Have you seen these "Tips" before:
Crap Tip #1: Buy low sell high.
My thoughts: Well no kidding really? Buy low sell high huh? Did it take long to think of that one?
Crap Tip #2: Sell prof mats
My Thoughts: Again..NO DUH!!!. People need mats, they don't want to grind them, if you grind them you make gold. This is NOT a strategy.
Sadly most guides give you such general information like these two tips that you end up pissed, especially if you spent money on a guide.
I wanted to take the guess work out of which guides are legit and which guides are simply online marketers with no real experience passing along their "knowledge"

 |  | This isn't just any old Guru this is THE GOLD GURU. Lots of guides CLAIM they are written by players but this is one of the few written by a completely legit VERY knowledgeable fellow player. Owner of the Blog Just My Two Coppers, Markco. THIS is the real deal. Not rehashed info this is the guide you want if you want up to the minute strategy and theory crafting on how to make gold. This is easily my most recommended gold guide. Everything you could ever want from a guide in addition to the ear of a guru. If you don't make gold with this then you're a lost cause. Short of Markco just giving you gold you're not to find anything easier. | $37.00 |
 | 8 of 10 | Hayden Hawke's Secret Gold Guide is easily one of the better World of Warcraft gold guides. I give it a solid 8/10. The format and delivery are e-book so it doesn't differ from most other gold guides in that sense. What it does do though is provide you with REAL and more importantly DETAILED advice. More than just "go farm mithril" Hayden Hawke's gold guide tells you exactly who, what, where and even WHEN you need to do certain things to make gold in World of Warcraft. I am giving a standard 2 point deduction as there is SOME rehashed information and filler. I do recommend this guide for anyone short on gold. | $17.00 |

| The Undermine Journal | This is basically the Wall Street Journal of the Auction house.Tons, I mean TONS of auction house statistics by Server and faction. Gives you a server average on each item. It's great for seeing who top sellers on your AH. Nice Add-On as well. |
