Vendors sorted in book from top to bottom by size of donation bids.


I'm crafting a run of 1000 runebooks with 15 vendor malls (mine will be included as the 16th mall of course), and distributing them freely to anyone who asks for a vendor mall runebook directory!

Of course, this service comes at a cost. But here's the thing, you decide how much you want to donate to have your mall included in the directory! One thing to note: The top donators get their malls listed at the top of the directory, and smaller donors get theirs listed lower down.

Minimum donation: 9,700 gold.

These books will be distributed over a period of time, and every donor gets one for themselves also to show off!

Reply via PM with your donation bid, vendor mall name, and character, and we will arrange to meet in game, so you can give me a rune to your mall if I don't have it already.

I require donation bids up front, so make sure you bid enough to make it in the book! Donation bids are non-refundable!

NEW: Due to the problems with the forums, and my second thread about this project being lost, and all of my PM's being deleted or lost in the transfer, If you contacted me to join this book, please reply again in this thread!

Did this awhile back for a few major vendor malls, charged them 200gp/book. GREAT advertisement, they said they noticed increased traffic.

So sign up for this!

I would sign up for this, if it was not for the fact I barely play anymore.

Difference is here is that it is a guarranteed 1000 books (over time, not all at once mind you) being made and distributed. A one time donation of any amount gets you in the book, provided you are among the first 15 to join, and are among the highest 15 bids. So it could be any amount of gold potentially, low, or high. Great deal if you ask me.

Seriously, good idea. Good investment for shop owners I would think.

Re: Distributing 1000 "Lobberworks Vendor Mall Directory"

Interesting, my neighbor runs a similar scam in real life.

He's into "advertisement" and gets professionals to pay him to include their publicity in booklets he claims he prints 1000s of, only he only prints a dozen of them to distribute to his marks.

I'm not saying this is an obvious scam, but it sure looks like it to me.

Re: Distributing 1000 "Lobberworks Vendor Mall Directory"

There are in game limitations.

For instance, I cannot hold more than 125 items on my person.
If I am already carrying 37 items, that leaves 88 items I can load up with.

My scribe would be making the runebooks, and as he attempts to make exceptionals he makes even more mundane runebooks. These runebooks do not have any makers marks and are being used for this purpose.

Even my house cannot hold 1000 runebooks.

So this will be a process of slowly making 1000 books and distributing them over time. Eventually everyone who's active will have an opportunity to own one of these Vendor Mall Directories.

Vendors will be able to purchase any size run of these for their own malls distribution for a small amount of money if they want to stock them, otherwise I'll be selling them for very little on one of my vendors and handing them out to players all over the vast continent and islands, also dropping runebooks randomly at WBB and other hotspots.

I'm still debating the best color for the runebooks.

Don't delay to be one of the very few listed!
