You can start your search for gold sellers by checking with the major search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing. Just enter your keywords, such as “buy wow” and browse through the results returned. Most likely, you will be able to find a couple of commercial websites where you can purchase wow gold through paypal or a major credit card.
Another useful resource is the popular question and answer sites such as Yahoo Answers. Go through the questions in the relevant category and see whether some one has already asked questions like “where can I buy wow gold safely”. Check out the answers and take down the name and urls of the seller recommended by others. In the rare case where you are unable to find a related question, you can always post your own.
The WOW players’ forum is also a great resource. There are plenty of them online and just search for them on the Big Board or the search engines. From the forums, you are sure to get another list of potential sellers.
When you land at the seller’s site, you should check whether the site has a professional design, is easy for navigation, has a secure certificate and offers good rates. I do not like to deal with those shady looking sites including those shady ebay sellers. As for the price, it won’t vary much from site to site, and the difference may just be a couple cents if any.
You should be careful with your purchase and never reveal more information than necessary. For transaction purchase, your character name and the server you use are the only ones that are required by the seller. Stay away if they ask for more.
Different sellers may specify different ways of gold delivery. The most common approach is for you and the seller to meet in the game to complete the transaction. The seller may also prefer to sending the gold to you through the in-game mail system.
Having discussed all the details about buying WOW gold online, I feel obliged to stress again that it is actually prohibited by the game’s terms of service. There are plenty of free ways to earn yourself big amount of gold if you are willing to invest your time and effort.
