Be The Amazon Of WoW
Posted on April 25th, 2008 by Gavin under Auction House, Gold BuildingAmazon.com has made a fortune reselling books. You can have your own little version of this in WoW and make some serious money on a regular basis. There are several types of books every player needs, and they are all in odd places to purchase.
For twinked toons, it can be particularly frustrating to be leveling up and need to train the next level and it’s just too difficult and time consuming to run all the way across the world to buy one. Enter you and your careful planning. You keep a mental list of where these books are sold and grab a few whenever you’re in the right area. Post them on the AH for a tidy profit, and you’ve got yourself a nice little business for virtually no effort whatsoever.
First Aid - everyone trains first aid, and first aid books will always sell on the AH. Here’s where you get them:
Heavy Silk Bandage, Mageweave Bandage, Expert First Aid
Alliance - Deneb Walker in Stromgard Keep, Arathi Highlands
Horde - Balai Lok’Wein in Brackenwall Village, Dustwallow Marsh
Netherweave Bandage, Heavy Netherweave Bandage, Master First Aid
Alliance - Burko in Temple of Telhamat, Hellfire Peninsula
Horde - Arasella in Falcon Watch, Hellfire Peninsula
Fishing - The fishing books are pretty easy to get, although you won’t sell as many. Most people don’t take the time to level fishing all the way, but it’s hard to find the vendors for these books if you don’t know where to look. For both Alliance and Horde you buy the books from:
Expert Fishing - Old Man Hemming on the lowest level in Booty Bay, Stranglethorn Vale
Master Fishing - Juno Dufrain just SW of Cenarion Refuge, Zangaramarsh.
Cooking - Cooking is another skill a lot of people ignore, but the first book can be a real pain to get. These will sell a little better than the fishing books, but not quite as fast as the First Aid books. However, since they are more rare on the AH, you can normally make more money off each one by marking them up more than you might be able to with first aid.
Expert Cookbook
Alliance - Shandrina in Silverwind Refuge, Ashenvale
Horde - Wulan in Shadowprey Village, Desolace
Master Cookbook
Alliance - Gaston in Honor Hold, Hellfire Peninsula
Horde - Baxter in Thrallmar, Hellfire Peninsula
Kalaen in Thrallmar, Hellfire Peninsula
BOTH - Naka in Cenarion Refuge, Zangaramarsh
Lethyn Moonfire in Cenarion Refuge, Zangaramarsh

Gavin,
You always provide excelant content. It’s been a while since I was on your site and I like the changes that you have made. You rock dude.
On my server I’ve been selling Master First Aid books for a while for on average 9g50s while they cost 4g50s. I try not to flood AH too much but sell on average 1 a day which is good going for doing nothing.
On my server those books are listed at the lowest for 2g and under.
