Get the Edge in the Auction House

Something few people take into consideration in the Auction House is the ORDER that items are listed in. The major factor in this is what the BID is set to. So, if you're undercutting someone's buyout, and they have a lower starting bid, their item gets listed higher up on someone's search results.

Now, no one is going to buy an item they don't even know is on the Auction House. Every little edge counts, and this one is easy to apply. Before listing something, check to see what your competition is. You'll already be undercutting their buyouts (you'd BETTER be, if you're listing it with competition!), but make sure you undercut their BID price as well. It only needs to be a little bit, and that will ensure that your item gets highest priority in someone's search! Every little bit counts.
