Believe me, I've made quite a few characters on more than one server, and I've been able to afford epic flyers for five characters in less than a year with out buying gold! Here are some of my tips: 1. Dedicate time to gather mats. Thirty minutes or so a day should be plenty. 2. Since most people are in Northrend now, there is a high supply of Northrend mats in the AH. Try farming Outland and or even Pre B.C. mats. There is less of a chance that you'll be bothered, and you might just be able to command the market for an item in the AH since not many people are selling it. 3. Try finding items that are easy to farm and easy to sell. For example, fishing for deviate fish in the Barrens is really simple. In half and hour you can get about 2 stacks and can usually sell them for 10-20g a stack, more if your lucky. 4. Be familiar with the AH and the average prices for items that you're selling. If one day an item is being sold for less than usual, don't be afraid to wait a while before you sell it. After a day or two it might go back to normal or even sell for more. 5. The same thing goes for selling gear and other dropped or crafted items. It's a good idea to check Thott, Wowhead, or any of those other sites to see how much they usually go for before selling them in the AH. This is to avoid underpricing your items. Also, if you are able to spot other people underpricing an item, you can buy it out and resell it for more. There are other tricks to making money on the AH, like buying pets and other vendor items like recipes or books, and selling them for a lot more, but I always feel guilty for doing that. Anyway, if you feel gathering mats and learning to use the AH effectively takes too much time away from your gameplay, doing dailys and old quests that you haven't completed from Outland and Northrend gives tons of gold if you're 80 or don't gain XP from them anymore. If not, you can always offer to run lowbies through low level instances. Not much fun, but gold is gold, right? Hehe... wow, I didn't mean for my answer to be so long. Oh well, I hope it helped!
