Sending gold cross faction

[hasan101010]

Hi guys,

As the title says, I am looking for a way to send gold from my Blood Elf to my Night Elf (Cross-Faction).

Is it possible to do this? I tried the Booty Bay AH but it didn't work.

Thanks

The only other method is a faction change.

the Booty Bay AH does work, but with a twist.
Person A: creates an auction(like a Grey item or a Herb, doesn't matter) for the amount you wanna trade to the other faction.
then give that amount of gold to Person B.
Person B: buys the item for X amount.

Reminder to do this at your own risk, it has to be a trustworthy friend and make sure to type it down in chat and make a screenshot of it.
you don't wanna get scammed.

Booty Bay AH, or any neutral AH for that matter, would require two accounts. Neutral AH cut is 15%.
I don't recommend moving pricey items via NAH, unless you also wanna swap gold around. Placing high price items for low cost will get them snagged by a bot.

Can someone explain how this can be done with two accounts if you don't have a friend to help ?

You can send gold in the regular mail cross faction AS LONG AS youre sending a Heriloom in the same mail. If not then youll have to use the booty bay auction house workaround.

How much gold if i might ask?

Personally I have 40k gold that I want to transfer and I don't have Heriloom.
So, whats the trick with the neutral AH when you don't have anyone to help and have to do it by yourself ?

Put any worthless item up for sale for 40000g from the recipient character.

Buy it from the donor character.

After an hour the recipient character will receive around 35000g, since the neutral AH takes a 15% cut. The rest will be lost.

This will only work if both characters are in different accounts. If you only have one account you will have to register another for this purpose.

Thanks,
I will register another then.

Herilooms don't work.. I even tried sending gold from ally to horde on same ACC.
Only way to get gold from Ally to Horde (vice versa.) Is by using Neutral action house...(Booty Bay, etc.) Post a item for XXX and go buy it with other faction char.

Or buy expensive items/matts and risk selling them for 1 gold. (You need to be really fast 1 second list/buy time.) Most times some bot are sitting there, trying to steal any item that is way under the price. So i would avoid that option.

Some times one faction is selling cheap items, that other faction the same item cost 2x the amount.. Yeah you lose 15% of it's price. But it's still ~70% profit.

Or you can always sell the gold for coins. And then use the coins to buy gold again. :D Doh you will lose 2 coins as minimal in that ordeal.
