The Complete History of WoW’s Black Market Auction House

🔥 New video: Everyone’s Wrong About the Black Market in WoW Forever — Watch here:    • Everyone’s Wrong About the Black Market in...   The Black Market Auction House has been part of World of Warcraft for over 14 years — but it has changed massively since Madam Goya first appeared in Mists of Pandaria. In this video, we go through the COMPLETE history of WoW's Black Market Auction House, from its controversial introduction in 2012 all the way to The War Within, Midnight and even World of Warcraft: Forever. From current raid gear and Tier 3 to extinct mounts, mystery containers, the Mighty Caravan Brutosaur and some of the rarest items in Warcraft history, the BMAH has gone from selling player power to becoming one of WoW's strangest gold sinks. We cover: • The original Black Market Auction House in Mists of Pandaria • Tier 3 and current raid gear being sold for gold • The Unclaimed Black Market Container • The Swift Zulian Tiger & Swift Razzashi Raptor • Mythic raid gear and the introduction of the WoW Token • Why Blizzard eventually removed current raid gear • Legion's 10 million gold cap • BfA's massive Black Market restock • Tusks of Mannoroth and rare raid mounts • The Mighty Caravan Brutosaur moving to the BMAH • Dragonflight adding Battle for Azeroth raid and dungeon mounts • Tier 3 becoming obtainable outside the Black Market • Ms. Xiulan and the Golden Regal Scarab • The War Within Black Market changes • Madam Goya's new home in Midnight • Which mounts can STILL only be obtained through the Black Market • The return of the system in WoW Classic and World of Warcraft: Forever ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 — The Black Market Auction House 00:49 — Mists of Pandaria 05:03 — Warlords of Draenor 07:52 — Legion 09:22 — Battle for Azeroth 11:42 — Shadowlands 12:57 — Dragonflight 15:14 — The War Within 16:31 — Midnight ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💰 Have you ever bought anything from the Black Market Auction House?
