I'm sure every one of you who have played a MMORPG have come across gold sellers. These are generally stereotyped as the "Chinese Gold Farmer". Granted, most gold farmers come from China. In fact China generated 5 BILLION dollars, yes that's a B for Billion, in RMT (real money transactions) last year alone. There is obviously a high demand for virtual items and people are willing to pay real life cash for it.
In the late 90's I made quite a bit of money selling gold and virtual real estate in Ultima Online but with the changes EA made to the game many players were driven from the game, myself included. With the economic downturn I once again found myself returning to the world of RMT's.
In the past I had supplied IGE with gold and accounts. I knew from experience that it was not one of the fly by night scam trading sites. I contacted them at let them know that I was willing to sell a large amount of gold on my normal World of Warcraft server. Within minutes I was contacted via instant messenger by Pusada.com.
After some initial confusion on my part (I wasn't expecting any responses that quickly) we agreed on the price (about $7 per 1000g) and arranged the first of 3 future trades. Pusada.com generally uses one of two methods when it comes to trading gold. They will either do a face to face trade or they will invite you into a guild and you deposit the money into the guild bank.
What is great about Pusada.com is that they will stay on the instant messenger with you the whole time until you have verified that you have recieved payment. They pay instantly via PayPal so you don't have to worry so much about the security of the transaction.
All in all I have made about $350 in sales to Pusada.com and thus far have been very impressed with the timeliness and sales experience as a whole. I would reccomend Pusada.com to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy buyer of gold.
I do have to note that they are an IGE.com supplier, and while they are American owned and operated and do not spam the trade chats, they do supply an industry giant that is reviled by many for perpetuating the Chinese Gold Farmer stereotype.
