Hello and welcome to the Gold Queen’s Darkmoon Faire Guide part three.

(please note, this guide was written in 2011. An updated guide is coming soon)

I’ll be focusing on four darkmoon vendors:

Flik
Professor Thaddeus Paleo
Gelvas Grimgate
Lhara

Flik is a small orc boy who sells wood frogs and tree frogs. He runs around the Faire, but you can stop him in his tracks by clicking on him. He will run ahead a few paces then turn back to you. Tree Frogs sell well almost every day on AH, but especially outside normal DMF event times. Wood Frogs are limited supply and you should be able to sell those for a higher price. They both cost 1g to buy.

Professor Thaddeus Paleo sells scrolls and potions and you may be able to make some gold flipping these, but be careful, check your AH data for current market prices. The last thing you want to do is spend a small fortune on items that you list several times on AH and end up having to vendor!
Gelvas Grimgate is a goblin in a DMF tabard with his own tent. He starts the DMF quests, where you can turn in the tickets for bags of loot. As well as gold (my favourite!) you can get rare patterns and auctionable greens and blues.

A word of warning: don’t use your tickets to buy the Steam Tonk pattern. As well as being BoP, engineers can now train this at a normal profession trainer, so don’t waste your time.

I have made a DMF Shopping List in Auctionator. Copy the items into your own new shopping list and you can use the [Search for All Items] button to create a list in ascending order of price that you can exchange in various amounts for Darkmoon Faire Tickets. Collect these to claim your prize/s.

Finally, moving on to our last remarkable vendor, and undoubtedly the most important:

Lhara is our Darkmoon Gold Making Machine-ette! She has a huge list of limited supply trade items, and the vast majority will resell at a huge percentage profit. There are just a few to look out for: Northrend Gems. Don’t spend 50g just to get 2 x forest emeralds for example that will vendor for 6g. (If you really want to throw your gold away, you can send it to me!)

But take Terocone for example. Buy here for 20s. They are currently selling for 3g each on my server.
You can’t say no to free gold!

Hello and welcome to the Gold Queen’s Darkmoon Faire Guide part two.

(please note, this guide was written in 2011. An updated guide is coming soon)
Today’s Darkmoon Faire focus is the new Cataclysm DMF cards. Let me introduce the new trinkets to you.

There are two Darkmoon Card: Hurricane with different stats.

These guys have great stats for players gearing up for their first Cataclysm raids. Now that there is more gold circulating in the WoW Economy, and everyone being generally richer, these babies are going to be selling for a premium. Expect to pay up to 40-50k for a completed deck or card this weekend. Here are today’s prices on my own server:

If you can’t read the small print, you can just click the image for the full size picture. As you can see they’re selling today from 5-27k. There are also other decks for sale, and these are usually used by players who are doing the Insane in the Membrane Achievement / Feat of Strength. It’s worth using your leftover hunters ink etc to craft these cards and decks if you spot a gap in the market on your own server/s.

For the last week, I have been funnelling my profits, after crafting and re-stocking any glyphs that sell, into making Darkmoon Faire cards on my scribe.

I’m trying to get some full decks to sell this weekend. I have one full deck already, and as you can see, I’m well on the way to making some more!

I’ll be spending the majority of today making new cards, as well as trying to finish up this guide for you.
