    90+% chance for Tokens of Luck, I would sell them myself. Have you tried adjusting your prices? Look at the other catshops and determine what your price should be, also merchanting isn't a 1 hour "speedrun" thing, it does take a while, but the rewards are better than if you opened the packs.

    I would totally agree with your advice... too often people buy stuff to resell and expect it to sell in an hour or less. Just as those who spam something unusual in WC during non-prime playing times and expect to sell it fast. If you are trying to sell something of huge value dont expect your market to be a huge pool. Those who have the funds to buy very well could already have that item. You want to find the player who has the funds of that size who needs the item.

    That leads to my suggestion. Location, location, location. All to often I have seen cat shops in really odd places which lends me to believe they do not plan to sell anything. Or those idiots who want to stand on top of an NPC such as the bounty hunter. I refuse to buy ANYTHING from someone who stands on an NPC. Its not creative its childish.

    I have had some great success selling goods in high traffic areas like in the north district of Arch near the north gate at the entrance to the area with the auction house. Not standing next to the Auction house, not standing on top of the Tailor or directly in front of the Merchant. In the entrance to that area where everyone passes is more ideal and more likely to get people to look then if you act like a child getting in the way of others trying to get to an NPC.
