Day 4/5 of 20 Days of Gold Making.
I don't think I have enough to say about these two individually to make a solid post. So, combo post!
Day 4. Do you use a banker alt/guild? When did you start doing that & why?
I definitely use a bank alt. It was created back in BC in order to have a central place to mail all my materials/stuff to sell. As I got more "advanced", it was helpful to just have auction mods turned on for one bank toon, rather than all of my characters.
I created an alt guild for the character shortly after, and started using the guild bank immediately after it was implemented. Guild banks were a huge boon to gold makers. The ability to have all of your items accessible on one toon was a game changer.
Day 5. Do you keep the same banker alt or do you change them up occasionally? Why?
I've had the same bank alt since it was created; I don't change them. It's probably more due to laziness than anything else. I just don't want to take the time to set everything back up for them. And on my server, I don't find a need to. No one talks much about the big sellers, and we very rarely talk amongst ourselves. I don't think most people even look at the seller's name when buying. I use Auctionator for buying, so the seller name isn't ever displayed. (Note, I use TSM for nearly everything. I just find Auctionator more effective for buying).
At one point, I used my enchanter/scribe as a second auction toon, simply for convenience, for glyphs and enchant scrolls. At that time, both toons were in the consistently among the top sellers on The Undermine Journal. However, I've since exited the glyph market (mostly), and now I just sell everything under my "main" bank alt.
Cheers!
