The BMAH gamble - Unclaimed Mystery box is a mystery!!!

[Castile]

Has anyone else bought these and what did you get?

So far i've gotten:

* Battered Hilt (not bad - going to use as xmog on my warrior with my old Quel'serrar)
* Totally useless pvp item for Horde on an Alliance toon!
* ???? (just won one but have to wait till i'm home to open!)

I'm kinda hoping for rare mount or pet like most ppl but I kinda like the thrill of the mystery box! You just never know...It could be a boat Lois!

[Hilde]

They usually go for rediculous prices on my realm so I haven't dared get one yet, but I have heard some "horror" stories about getting armor you can't use and stuff like that. I am mainly tracking the bmah for transmog gear so getting some fitting tier 3, corrupted ashbringer or invincible's reins in one of them would be epic....but only in my dreams.

Good luck to those of you who take the gamble!

next i got...

* Useless pvp item
* Tailoring pattern!! (I can send it to my tailor so not bad!)

I will stop for now as my Blazing Drake finally poped so I'll throw gold at my screen tonight till i win that!!!

[SpiritBinder]

Just a heads up... it up to 200000g now

Might just have to wait and try and pip them at the post, closer to the auction end if you want to catch it in you price range. It's pretty clear there are some ppl on our realm with a lot of gold. That 999 999g single bid for invincibles reins that other day... mind boggling!

Best of luck!!!

[Castile]

Yeah my partner is keeping me informed! I'll get him to bid before he leaves for Gym and i'll play the waiting game when i get home! I'll be so sad if my 310k isn't enough I honestly didn't think it would go for more than 200k, i mean i got Onyxia for 210 and she's rarer 0.o

[SpiritBinder]

It's true she is rarer (4.9% owned compared to the 7.1% of the blazing) but I think it's the fact that she is fairly easy to solo farm at 90 now, her % is going up all the time. However with the blazing dropping off Deathwing... the % owned is not really moving much these days. Psychologically, people are less tempted to spend gold on an item they think they could possibly loot, not matter how low the chance, it's better than no chance

[Castile]

Stable at 250k now...tempted to throw all my gold at it when I'm home and say "screw it, if i can't get it with this, its not meant to be!"

[SpiritBinder]

So.... close

I can almost... touch......

[Castile]

omg i love that!! If I win thats totally my sig lol!!

[Castile]

Lost it Bid 310k all my gold and some dumb DK won it...ffs he didnt even have his CLASS flying mount!! Grrr

[SpiritBinder]

Waaaaht?!?! .... so sorry to hear
Well, I guess that's the BMAH for ya, still mind bogglingly pricey. Who knows, maybe in the next few days it will come up again and you'll get it for 1/2 price! /fingers crossed

[Castile]

As a consolation prize I later received this however...and my partner got a warglaive from BT! we were stoked! I also got 2 mount cards in our tcg box to sell so an extra 300k for next time

Saw raven lord on the BMAH for 30k the other day, bid up some horrdie to 89k, and then gave up, wasn't gonna let him have it that cheap...
