Imagine if everyone instead used the auction house in Gadgetzan we would have a crossfaction auction house. Would be great for many people who need faction based drops. I for example would love to find some tailoring recipes dropped for alliance exclusively etc.

At the moment it´s silly how few people use or even know of this auction house even though the possibilities with a alliance / horde is far better for both factions than the capital cities auction houses. The longer people use the ones in Orgrimmar/Stormwind the harder it will be to move there.

I hear that Gadgetzan roof campers are the main reason why people dont use the auction house there (at least on PVP servers), and a higher deposit is needed to sell items also :(



I just dont want to sell the items I make to the enemy :p

Indeed, Gadgetzan was devoid of both horde and stuff on the auction house :)

The AH is in IF for alliance ;)

Have seen some stuff but not much. Cause people hardly visit the 40+ zone at low lvls.

Easier to get to IF than Gadgenzan and lower deposit.

Blizzard have discussed linking all the AH's into one in an upcomming patch, it won't matter where you place an auction then.

Nah...

As an Alliance member, I don't wanna buy stuff off of those rotting undead creeps or the braindead orcs and make them richer...

Keep Alliance money in the Alliance... Hmmm I sound like a Nationalist... Boo me :(

Nicely put.

Also I would rather give items to people in my faction, than some from the other faction.

No reason to make your enemy stronger :D

Na, you could fly there ;)

Your point is valid though: its in a very inconvenient place where few people are 'just passing' regularly.

Shame really, the neutral AH is a nice idea. If it had been placed somewhere else (maybe Booty Bay) I expect it'd be alot more popular.

Costs way too much to list stuff at gadgetzan if its expensive. Ill list cheap stuff there, but too little audience to list more expensive stuff.. Basically if vendor price (not sell price, but price that vendor would charge you for an item) is the deposit if you list for 24 hours...
