I'm still making my way through the game for the first time, but its hard to not over analyze the game's systems and to manage your items and money effectively.
So have have you guys been doing?
I began salvaging most magic items, especially ones not for my class. I put a bunch of these items up for auction as well, this was a mistake as I am still waiting for them to expire as lvl 8-10 items just aren't worth the time and auction slot for 500-1000 gold.
I am now selling all magic and sort of crappy rare items as crafting materials are dirt cheap on the auction house. You can buy 100 of either for about 1700-2000 gold. You can sell your magic items to vendors for 100-200 gold. So just sell everything you dont want and buy crafting materials in the auction house. Hopefully the economy balances out so that its actually worth it to salvage in game.
What I would like tips on is selling items in the auction house. Do you guys just put a pretty low buyout to get fast sales, or do you go and search for a similar item and price it around there. I have way too many rare items that I think are auction worthy, but with only 10 slots it might take a while to get rid of them. I am getting magic/rare drops like crazy now that I've focused my equipment to have magic find (around 100% magic find right now). I feel its probably worth the time to get the most money in auctions since in game gold is actually very valuable with crafters requiring it for upgrades.
Any other tips to better manage your Diablo 3 moneys and items?
