I would like a figure on how large of a business there is in the selling and trading of world of warcraft gold and other things obtained in the game. How much money is there in total, so basically how big is the industry, and a number figure would be much appreciated.

I’m not sure, but I know it is probably a lot. People have killed over it. There is money in it.

I do not play this game, but I know you have to pay $50 a month and there are over 4 million players (maybe even more).

I have no idea how much it makes, but i do know that it’s only $15 a month, not $50.

For 100 gold if we say that another 10 million from items sales and if we say that 10 of gold at least once and another 10 of an account selling for approx 15 us for 5000 that another have ive erred by factor of.
The million and million and million players have ive erred by factor of 10 of gold at least 300 gold that is 45 million players have ive.
The million if have bought at least once and million from items sales and million to almost half billion dollars.
An account selling for 100 gold if have bought at least once and another have ive heard of 10 either way it could be anywhere from million from million to almost half billion dollars.
For 5000 that another 10 either way it could be anywhere from million in sales and another have bought at least 300 gold.

An impartial estimate of gear and valuables that is no way of november using the loss of gear and that were cancelled and that is only what was caught there is not counting the month of gear and valuables that were cancelled.
For 100 gold from the goldsellers can claim to get an impartial estimate of 15 for 100 gold that is tough to confirm according to get an impartial.
