A while back I created the Ultimate Recipe Collections to assist people who were interested in selling vendor recipes. I don't often to go out of my way to mention or bark it unless it's incredibly relevant to the conversation so I imagine some folks don't know it exists.
Basically, quite a while back I felt there was no good resource for vendor recipes. Sure, there's wowhead searches with the appropriate filters but every time I wanted to get recipes I would end up missing a few and wasting tons of time since it wasn't properly sorted.
So I made a massive list of every vendor recipe sorted by geographic location, highlighting important faction-specific recipes and adding notes where necessary. Once it became cleaned and polished I felt I had something that was really valuable. As money was (and is) tight and I was also interested in learning to sell things online I put them up for purchase at two bucks per faction.
The response has been very positive, significantly moreso than I ever imagined. I knew that the list was a valuable tool but I admit I didn't know how it would be received by people who aren't as hooked on vendor items as I am; I am very happy to have received many words of praise from purchasers.
So thank you for everyone who bought a recipe collection, I know two bucks doesn't seem like much but you guys really helped me out a lot.
So what's this about updates? Well, along with all the good reviews I also received a lot of recommendations for future updates, recommendations I've taken to heart. I'm working on updating the collections with some of these requested features and a new version of each faction's collection should be out before the month ends.
Planned Additions:
- There will be TomTom waypoint macros for every vendor on the list.
- There will be maps outlining the route I follow when stocking up on these items.
- There will be information on Limited Quantity numbers, as well as information about the spawn times/details where available.
- There will be importable TSM Auctioning groups to sell the items in the collections.
Anyone who purchased a collection already will be entitled to upgrade to the newer version for free once it's been released. Because of the increased amount of time invested and value in the collections, as well as money continuing to be far too tight around here, I will likely be raising the price to three dollars per faction when the updates are released. (Hint: That means you can get it for 2 dollars before they're released and get the free upgrade once the new version's out, saving a buck per faction!)
I guess that's about it. If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

I made one for myself a few weeks ago, and having 2 or more alts stationed on critical places you can purchase all the vendored recipes in the game in about 20 minutes.. :)

I can't wait, I'd be more than happy to pay an extra 6 bucks for both new guides, just for those features!
ReplyDeleteThese vendor recipes have made me a fortune, thanks Faid
Was happy to review it and as I said I hope that my views help in making the guide better. As I can see you have plans to making it such and I'll hopefully and would most like to do an updated review once you get all your updates done and release the new version of the guide.
