It’s been a great month 3.1 finally came out and I and everyone I know has been living it up in Ulduar!
Something I’ve come to realize since I started this blog, and paying attention to people/characters and who’s buying wow accounts, is that different people expect and look for very different things when they buy wow account.
Case and point:!

I had a guy come into my shop earlier this week and we got to talking about wow accounts and he said he had leveled a few characters up to around 55 but was really just looking to pickup a nice decked out level 80.
So of course I mention Toonstorm to him, it’s a site we’ve suggested before and they’ve got a big selection – something he could use.
He asked me if they ever scam;
I replied; “Toonstorm Scam?” “ha!”

As ridiculous as it was to me it was a very real concern to him because he hadn’t purchased anything like that before. So I classify this guy as someone who would be interested in buying but under normal circumstances would find it very difficult to find a safe secure place to buy them. So of course I try to tailor the blog to fit the needs of people who have those generalized questions about the process and who to trust; and in fact I have shaped the blog to a large extent to cater to those people.

Now that’s just one example – I also spent 2 hours last night raiding with my guild (They’re local so we shoot the poop afterwards normally) and found out afterwards that 2 of the guys have gone through a few different accounts and are regulars at buying – and they look for a whole different set of criteria than the first guy! These guys are pro’s and totally know who’s safe and who isn’t. They have a few sites they frequent and specifically look for specs and builds that they think they’d enjoy playing and when the price seems right they snatch the account up. These guys might be a little to advanced for me to try and make this blog appeal to them but it’d be exciting to write about. The point is I realized there’s a few different types of wow account buyers and in the future I’m going to be trying to expand the scope of the blog to include some other aspects other than purchasing safely, ie purchasing safely and cheaply, purchasing safely and choosing from a larger selection etc.

We’ll see how I fair!
Thanks for ready and stay tuned for the next one!
