As we know, Diablo 3 features RMAH (Real-Money Auction House) which allows player to sell their items using the Auction House for real cash, here's the rule of doing so :

1) You must have a battle.net name tag. (Battle.net account management)
2) You must enable Battle.net SMS-protect. (Battle.net account management - security)
3) You must have paypal registered and verified. (Need a credit/debit card or sign up with the RHB Bank)

And every items that are sold in the RMAH will have their profit deducted.

- 1USD will be taken out of the total sale if the item sold is an equipment.
- For commodities such as crafting materials, gems, gold, and other “stackable” items, a 15% transaction fee will be deducted from the total sale price.
- Another 15% will be deducted if you're transfering the profit you've gain from battle.net to Paypal. (Cash on battle.net may be use to purchase blizzard games, montly subcriptions, etc..)

Source - Battle.net
In the end, the profit you've made will be about half the amount you actually sold for.

Discussion on this thread will only be about RMAH and all other tradings that includes real money. Give out your thoughts here.

Regarding Manual Trade.

- Just like the old ways, the trading has always been so easy and there's no profit deduction, but beware of scammers! Trade at your own risk

- You may post items or amount of gold that you wishes to sell here including the price to be traded with real cash.
Please include -

1) Your server
2) Your Battle Tag. (Mine is Ryper#1208)
3) The Screenshot of the item.

Made a good impression in Diablo Real Money Trade, have a good reputation and sells your items the manual way. Still works I bet.

its time to be a gold farmer.
yipe yay kay

I think the RMAH is for blizzard to make extra profit, the RMAH not for players to earn anything.. wow was charging 10/15 per month & this game just uses another method of charging extra $ without scaring away those that don't want to pay monthly $. Maybe this game'll do better than WoW??

RM Ah? Did someone install this code on purpose or coincidence?? Weird pun

proven to work really well on other games especially steam games

but definitely the first game of Blizzard to implement this system and imo this will work exceptionally well

Err, the SMS protect, is it the Authenticator apps for smart phone?

different thing

the 1 u talking is authenticator, while the SMS is "Battle.net SMS Protect".

u need SMS protect to use RMAH, u need authenticator only if your bnet account holding more than usd100

no, they sms you for confirmation of selling the item just like requesting TAC number for online money transfer

Oh, alright, thanks guys for the explanation... cause I don't have a smart phone yet

ok i didnt know that paypal is also deducting 15% lol. so overall is 30% +1usd deduction from the amount we sold? means if 100usd we only get back 69usd

i got 1 question, how to we take the money out? can we do that in paypal?

no need smartphone nokia 3310 also can,they send u sms only

The money will be transferred to your RHB bank when you cash it out, for further or alternatives, just check out paypal website.

1 question --> does the paypal acc have to be linked with RHB? or my existing paypal with Maybank/CIMB is usable already?

in my experience, you can send the money to some of local malaysian bank ( I only know can work with Maybank/CIMB because done that many time, so not sure how other banks are fared). But for easy method, open RHB bank and link it to Paypal, since RHB offer that services.

but if do not want is ok, but you may kena charge for transfering the money to ur bank account

Before you go on, I think you might have made a mistake here. Blizzard will charge you 1USD for any item sold, OR 15% of the profit on items such as potions, materials etc. Its not 1USD AND 15%.

I've made some correction there, but for equipment, it really is 1USD+ 15%

yes. one-pieced items are charged 1USD+15%.

wondering how is paypal gonna work, i mean using business account.

as for business account, in receiving $$, they is some fee, will it be cover by Blizzard..erm...

In the real-money auction-house, for equipment such as weapons and armor, a fixed transaction fee will be deducted from the seller for each piece of equipment successfully sold. This fee is assessed only if the item is sold. For commodities such as crafting materials, gems, gold, and other “stackable” items, a 15% transaction fee will be deducted from the total sale price.

If you sell equipment, you're going to be charged 1USD for the transaction fee. There is no 15% on top of that. In the event that you decide to withdraw money to PayPal, then yes, you will get charged again.

Correct me if im wrong, if we didnt sell the item, there ain't any charges right?
