How many of you buy stuff from the trading post and spending the traders tender conservatively? And saving on traders tenders above the 2000 to 2500 range and not below of those numbers.
For me I buy stuff wisely from the trading post and making sure that I stay above 2000 to 2500 range and anywhere below that I consider it underwater for my pocket book.
I just spend on what I like and what i don’t get i hope it comes back. I hope acti Blizzard will play nice and not rely on tender purchases to get a good chunk of the items. And I hope it will stay fun, achievable from a casual perspective, and rewarding. But we will see as i have my doubts.
Mine were at 1700 before I picked up this month’s 500 from the chest. I bought the staff. That’s it for me. So I’ll earn the rest of this month’s and that’s what, another 500? So I’ll be at 2200 at the end of the month.
I blow my funds every months 
I try to keep at least 800 spare currency per month just in case.
I grab whatever I think is interesting I have about 3k tender currently.
I buy the things I want and ignore the rest. If I can’t afford something I really want it’s w/e. Only thing that makes me mad is the monetization of the TP and them selling more and more tenders. It was a good/pure thing for the game and totally ruined by greed. Now they are selling xmog sets for $$$$ + offering the EXACT amount of tenders to buy the matching staff this month. It’s really pathetic.
You do know those stuff will be coming to the trading post one day. And plus that is besides my initial thread. My thread is do you spend or save tenders and basically approach the trading post as it were real life economics.
Doesn’t matter, the money corrupts it. It should’ve never been about money. We pay for the game retail + a sub. No excuse for this crap.
Ingame you earn more versus that you can buy.
I buy mounts and pets if I’m missing them (which is rarely), after that i’ll buy the occasional piece of mog. I usually have 1000+ leftover.
I mean…it depends entirely on what’s available. Most months, I only buy some of the less expensive stuff, since a lot of the mounts/ensembles don’t really appeal to me. So I’ve been hovering around 1500-2000. But it’s not like I’m intentionally saving for anything. I think I’m down to ~1100 this month 'cause I bought the staff and priest set.
Even that seems low to me. I barely buy anything. My biggest spending month was the first month it came out. Got all the pink and the flower stuff.
I am above 3900 because of the incomplete class armor and non matching weapons this month!
Got the silly crab at least!
I’m at around 1600 right now cause I got the Rogue set, totem backs and staff. I was planning to get the Paladin set too, but it looks pretty meh in-game.
“wisely” meaning you don’t buy things you want to stay about “2000-2500” range? 
I’ve got 5,000 tenders. I don’t collect mounts I won’t use, and the same goes for pets and mog. There just hasn’t been anything good in there, and I’m still waiting on a lot of items that were datamined.
It’s called being responsible. My approach to trader tender is like real currency I don’t blow my entire savings or budget.
yea, everyone’s different- I buy what I like, which isn’t a whole lot, and typically have 1750+ left over and am fine with that.
Other than that, not a whole lot going on, I agree with you.
Knock-off prestige mount models are not my energy at all 
you’re right.
it doesn’t matter.
nobody wins the game by having a few extra tendies.
it doesn’t impact you in the slightest.
