July 2012 Glyph Sales




I've been been busy stockpiling glyphs for MoP, hanging out at The Consortium Forums and ... well generating coin of course. Here are the stats for glyphs in July.

  • Total Glyph Sales:  58030g
  • Total Glyphs Sold: 1472
  • Average Price:  39g42s
While I'm selling even more glyphs, the biggest hit was the price per glyphs - 10g less than last month on average. There has been a marked increase in competition as the expansion grows closer, and a lot of new leveling scribes. More recently I have also been actively buying out the cheap glyphs to reset the market price, and noticing that some of my competitors thresholds are reasonably high. When all it takes to reset a glyph to my fallback is buy out one glyph, and cancel three of my own, it really makes me appreciate being prepared to sell glyphs closer to the cost price than my competitors.

Since I've got all my data in a database, it's much easier to start looking at the longer term trends for my sales in the glyph market, so I'll leave you with a graphical representation of my glyph stats since I started recording them.

The big pie chart of sales by category is coming soon... but if you have any requests for data and analysis from my 18 months of sales data... hit me up here or on twitter, and I'll include that in a future post!
