Hey there folks!

A friend of mine was talking with me earlier this week and was starting to get really frustrated with how hard it was to get decent amounts of gold in wow lately. He’s a level 75 pally, but his gear is a little… weak to say the least.

Now granted, he’s an on-again, off-again player. Never been as hardcore about it as I am, but really enjoys it when he does play. But his infrequent runs and raids just don’t net him the drops he needs to make a real DPS monster like he wants to be. And the main thing that’s been holding him back is gold, or the lack thereof.

So, naturally, I suggested he buy some. He’s well-off, and I think he’ll play more and be happier about it if he just gets his gear up to snuff. He thought about it, and decided to go along with the idea. I tagged along for the ride so as to post a review here when we were done.

We started shopping around and stopped on a site that had some screaming deals. But before he bought, he took my advise and googled the site to see just what came up. What we found was pretty shocking. Dozens of posts about scams, all directed at this one site. I’d post the name, but as of yesterday, they no longer exist so there’s no point. That’s right, they dropped off the interwebs entirely. We felt really lucky.

So, instead, we decided to hit up Mogs to see what they had running. Prices are about the same as the last time I posted (about $8 for 1000 gold), but there was some awesome news on the front page. It turns out, Mogs is donating 5% of every purchase to a Haiti disaster relief fund. They’re trying to raise $7,000, which may not seem like much, but considering the size of the niche we’re talking about, that’s pretty impressive.

That sold him in the end (he always did love to give to a good cause). So, he placed the order and hopped into live chat to track it. The rep there told us that the gold would be ready in about 20 minutes, so we chilled for a bit. About 15 minutes later he logged in and got a tell to meet in SW. From there, the money was handed over and all was well. So, in the end, he was happy to buy wow gold, and felt good about doing so at Mogs.com.

Hey again everyone!

I hope everyone had a great holiday season. I know I did! The new patch has been absolutely killer for me.

But the new patch got me thinking: what with all of the new content and free trials available, people are probably flocking to WoW like moths to a flame at this point. All of these newbies running around are bound to clutter things up a little bit, but it’s safe to assume there will be some of them out there who feel like we do and want to save a little time by buying some wow gold instead of farming it. With that in mind, I thought it might be a good idea to take a look at some simply tips for buying gold.

Do use review sites (like this one) to help weed out the bad locations. There are lots of them, and if you can find a good one, they will help you make a decision.

Don’t use any place that requires payment via Moneygram or Western Union. These are almost always scams that will disappear with your money just as soon as you get it. Stick to a place you know and trust. One I’ve come to know really well over the years is Mogs.com. They have a rock solid reputation and don’t mess around with your money.

Do look for a money-back guarantee. Any place worth spending your money at is going to have one of these. It’s their way of protecting us against the possibility that our order gets botched somehow. One place I know and trust (Mogs.com) has one of these and they’ve never let me down.

Do exercise common sense. If it looks too good to be true… well, you get the idea. A lot of outfits make some pretty outrageous claims about pricing or delivery times. When they start doing this without any sort of reviews or logic to back it up, it means they’re cutting corners. This can be really dangerous for you as the customer, because they aren’t concerned about what might happen to you if they mess up.

Don’t make a big deal out of what you’re doing. Talking in open chat about buying gold is the quickest way I can think of to get your account banned. If the GM doesn’t catch you, another player might have an issue with what you’re doing and decide to turn you in. It’s like Edward Norton said, the first rule of Fight Club is you don’t talk about fight club.

Until next time, keep it real!

Hey there everyone!

Sorry I’ve been away for a while.  The summer months were keeping me busy outside, so I didn’t get much of a chance to play wow or check prices.  Winter has well and truly set in, though, so I’m keeping warm cuddled up to my computer.  And to think the Lich King likes this kind of weather!

Well, the 3.3.0 patch dropped yesterday, and it brought some great things with it!  New raids, new instances, and the chance to take on the Lich King himself!  Talk about a major update!

Unfortunately, with my absence it seems I’ve fallen behind the times in terms of gear.  I’ve been looking at all of the stuff that’s come available since I last updated and I’ve come to a realization:  it’s going to be summer again before I come up with enough gold to decently outfit my druid again!  I just can’t spend that much time mining and auctioning!  I’m looking to hit level 80 and tackle the big guy ASAP! 

So, it looks like I’m going to be searching for somewhere to buy wow gold to speed things along a little bit.  A basic search shows that more and more places have cropped up over the last few months.  Prices are really good right now just about everywhere, so it’s a matter of what sort of service they deliver.  Several of the places I’ve found have some really long delivery times, which doesn’t suit my needs in the least.  I think it’s time I hit up tried and true Mogs.com.  I’ve mentioned them here before, and their delivery times have always been fantastic, so I think they’ll get my business again. 

I think I’ll order 5000 gold this time around.  That should be enough to help with reoutfitting my Tauren and picking up any new shiny toys that have come with the patch.  The price is really reasonable, and the delivery is backed by the same guarantee that I already like.

Well, after placing the order I got a confirmation call and they told me to check for the gold in about 20 minutes.  I’m not particularly patient, so I logged in about 10 minutes later.  I had just started taking in some of the new graphics update from the patch when I got a tell!  From start to finish, I’d say it took about 20 minutes to get all the gold I needed.  Once again, Mogs has proven to be a great place to get some great deals on wow gold.

World of Warcraft has recently released the 3.1 patch making lots of new reasons to buy wow gold!

When a new patch comes out I’m always hesitant to buy from a source we haven’t bought from in the past - the reason being is Blizzard is always on the lookout to ban some accounts during patch time. If you deal with someone you know is safe you don’t have to worry about having your wow gold pulled back or even worse a suspension.

Only because a patch just came out and I’m short on gold I’ll go back to a name we know/trust and have purchased from many times on this blog; this site.

Right now they are selling 1000 wow gold pretty cheap at 18.34 and if the delivery speed is as fast this time as it was last time we should have it very soon.

The reason I don’t have the typical concerns when ordering from them after a patch is they are 100% U.S. based and english speaking. They have a pretty open-door policy and will answer any questions I raise about their current delivery methods. I’ve also spent a good deal of time googling them and have, in the past, seen many good things said about their delivery processes.

I’ve placed the order for 1000 gold and just got an email telling me the gold is ready and that I should log in.

I’m going that now — long que of course…Tuesday night..yippeeee lol

OK got in about 6 minutes later than I wanted but I just got a tell asking me to meet at Razor Hill.

Just arrived and am meeting now.

Great got 1000 gold and I’m on my way to OG to hit up the auction house!

That went smoothly and it looks like I’ve managed another safe wow gold transaction!

I’ll post another review here as soon as I can get out of Ulduar for more than a few hours (he he)

Be safe!

Hello and welcome back!

We have now been blogging for almost 4 months! During that time we have logged hundreds of comments and emails from you, our beloved readers(:D), thanking us for putting the info together and presenting it. It’s really meant a lot to us to know we have that many people reading our blog and listening to our advice!

With that in mind we want to go over some of the happenings of the past 4 months and share those with you.

We were lucky enough to review Mogs.com as one of the first sites we tried to buy wow gold from and then write about our experiences here for you to reflect on. Needless to say we were incredibly lucky with out pick. They proved to be one of the BEST PLACES to buy wow gold that we reviewed. We had several places give us the run-around, some not deliver, some have horrible customer service, and a few try all kinds of wierd stuff in game (Talk about trading nightmareee ugh), but with Mogs it was fast and easy. We have  since reviewed them several subsequent times and each time has provided the same result - Excllent customer service, Fast wow gold delivery, and great prices.

We are not going to review a website purchase this week but since we hit the four month mark we figured we’d just offer up the above re-cap and offer people a good alternative to buying from scam sites.

We’ll be back with a full review next week! Thanks for reading!

Greetings, Fellow gamers

Boy, how the time does fly when you’re having fun. I’ve been playing a good amount of WOW in recent weeks. I’ve nearly leveled my Tauren druid to 70. I’ve been planning on getting him his epic Black War Kodo as soon as he hits 70, but man, upgrading all my spells, and attempting to keep his skinning and leatherworking skills on an even level has left me broke on the gold front. I figured it was time to go WOW gold shopping again, thus bringing you another review.

For past reviews, I’ve had wonderful service from MOGS.com. After a friend related a story to me about being unable to make a gold purchase at an unnamed shop, due to not owning a land phone line for their voice verification, I decided to test them out on that front, to see how I fared.

After creating a new account, and giving them my cell number, rather than land line, I placed my order, with a note that the phone number given was for a cell, I then sat back to wait. To my delight, within ten minutes of placing the order, I was on the phone with a very courteous CS rep, verifying my order. While on the phone, I asked about the phone number, and was told that as long as it is a valid number, and they could contact me through it, it was no issue. Concluding the conversation, the CS rep informed me that I should receive my gold within thirty minutes. I then logged into my wow account, and had the gold in less than fifteen minutes!

I am more and more impressed with the wonderful folks over at MOGS.com each time I do business with them. Next time you’re in need of WOW gold, you really should check them out.

Hey guys, 

This week I wanted to give you a rundown of some of the mistakes people make when trying to buy WoW gold… and hopefully help you avoid some of those pitfalls that can occur. Some of this may seem obvious to you if you’re a veteran gold buyer, but much of it bears repeating anyway. And for those of you looking to buy WoW gold for the first time, it’s definitely worth a quick read. So, without further ado, the DO’s and DON’TS of gold buying:

DON’T  be fooled by outrageous claims. If it looks way too good to be true….well, you know the rest. Sites offering 1000 gold for $5 are probably out to scam you and take your money. Sad but true. Also look at their delivery time claims…..think about what is humanly possible, and then factor in server lag and make sure what they’re promising is halfway feasible. 

DO run any sites you’re interested in through a google search. Often the worst scammers will have been labeled by now and discussions and warnings will pop up in a search. There are also sites dedicated to exposing scams, try those out as well. It’s worth the extra few minutes of your time to be sure. 

DON’T send any money unless you know it’s being sent over a secure connection. I won’t go into details here, but if you’re not sure how to tell if your transaction is secure, there is plenty of information out there, just Google “how do I know my transaction is secure” or something similar. This is so important when you’re giving out your credit card number.

DO look for a money-back guarantee (such as the one offered by mogs.com.) Any site worth its salt will offer you a full refund or equal credit if anything goes wrong. If they can’t promise you that, don’t waste your time or risk your money.

So that’s just a few quick things to keep in mind next time you go to buy WoW gold. Wishing you best of luck and happy gaming!

‘Tis the season to be shopping, fa la la la la….Hey guys, it’s getting close to Christmas and you know what that means—time to treat yourself to a new pair of boots and that epic sword you’ve been drooling over at the AH! (Hey, you deserve it!) But the question is….where to buy WoW gold safely, and for a good price? There are a lot of scammers out there to be sure, promising speedy delivery and secure money handling, but who can you trust? We wouldn’t want any of you to get left out in the cold when you purchase your WoW gold this Christmas, so here’s some advice: we are always testing new services, but one that has come through consistently for us in the past is Mogs.com. Give them a try if you’re looking to buy WoW gold. And with their prices, you might even be able to get your friends something nice too. Maybe.

11 Million players now enjoy World of Warcraft - Man..I remember when it hit 5 million and I thought that was a lot haha.

I was browing a bit today and I found a few funny videos that have been released since WoWTlK came out; This first one is a play on the Soprano’s Series:

 

Very funny but I think it’s a distant second to the Prince of Darkness Ozzy Osbourne’s WoW Tlk Video:

 

Now that the pleasantries are over lets talk about what we do best here; and that is give you the tools you need to quickly and safely buy wow gold.

We’ve already previewed a website gotten some pretty good results. This week I want to test out a BIG order. This is one of the busiest times in the game, for wow gold, and just for playing or hell even logging in. I think testing a website out now and making sure that they can successfully do a delivery under pressure will give me the best insight I’m going to get about any wow gold selling website out there. With that in mind I want to test out Mogs with a 20,000 wow gold order.
I’m going to place it and pick it up on my Death Knight (Hey don’t say anything haha)

Heading to the site and using the VIP Code we got from a friend.

The code is: VIPONLY

This code will give us 5% off any purchase - and on 20,000 we’re talking about some big money back. Ok order has been placed here at exactly 11:55 AM. I’m also logging in and going to run a quick quest while I wait.

Ok 12:05 - I actually got a tell in the middle of the quest asking if I can meet up; that was very quick.
12:15 - Ok ran to town and met up with a high level char who had my full amount - wooho! Ok no more questing and time to shop now.

Thanks for reading guys and again we’ve had another successful wow gold purchase

Thanks to Mogs.com for giving me a safe place to buy wow gold.

Hello again friends and avid readers!

I’ve got a real treat for you this week! A friend of mine that I was telling about this proejct actually was able to get me a DISCOUNT code. He purchases quite a bit of wow gold from the website we’re going to review this week and was glad to let us use his VIP code. I’ll be posting the code along with the review here when the time comes!

.. Ok the time has come!
The code is: VIPONLY

This code will give us 5% off of our test purchase, good for me because I’m still funding this little adventure out of pocket, and will allow us to test a website with a pretty good name in the industry.
The website in question this week is Mogs.com. From clicking around on their about us page and reading some of the reviews it appears that they are a U.S. based company and promise customer satisfaction and good delivery of the wow gold.

Before we get deep into the purchase itself I wrote up a few notes about online wow gold buying and some safety tips; here are a few good things to know when you buy wow gold.

1. Most online gold selling sites paypal or credit card.
         -  These are generally accepted payment methods that most gold
                sites use - They are safe and allow instant transfer of funds.
         - When you’re making your purchase; about halfway through the 
                paypal option there is a  number next to the sellers name; this is
               their feedback rating, a total of how many successful sales they 
                have had. Use it as a loose measure as to their legitimacy.

2. Visit the live help of the website in question. Most places that are professional and want to earn your business will not mind if you come kick a few tires.

3. ALWAYS Google the name of the company you are dealing with - look for bad reviews and scam reports.

Ok with those out of the way lets get down to talking about the website we’re going to check this week. Mogs.com - 100% U.S. Based etc But can they deliver my gold safely and quickly? Lets find out
I’m loading up their website now on their wow gold page and going to do a test run of 5000 wow gold - big spender I know right? Had a birthday this week and got some extra $ so I’m spending it the only way I know how!

Ok the payment has been sent; Mogs takes paypal and I googled them - all good on that front. I’ll detail the process as it happens.

1. Logging into game to await my delivery.
2. Ok I just got a phone call from one of the customer service guys at mogs; they had to verify some info real quick on the phone and told me to log in game (I’m already in though HA!)
3. About 10 minutes later I’m meeting a character and getting my 5000 gold!

Very cool.

This website appears to deliver on its promises to deliver wow gold quickly and safely. I almost immediately have lost interest in typing on here now - I want to go shopping for some new gear and maybe a mount!

Thanks for reading and I’ll get more posted in about a week or so!

Thanks to the people at mogs - Mogs is a great place to buy wow gold.
