So, there I was, in the middle of some god forsaken place in the land of
Azeroth. I was a million miles from an auction house or a major city and I had a
ton of great weapons and armor that I wanted to distribute among my alts and the
auction house...
What to do?

So, I thought and thought...and then it came to me...I need a "pack donkey". Or
more appropriately, I need some one to sit near a mailbox in one of the major
cities and collect all my goodies/send them to my other alts or list them at the
auction!
What a grand idea!

Yes, this isn't a new trick by any means, but it is amazing how many people
playing World of Warcraft take several months before they figure this out!
Needless to say, I logged out of my current character (my main) and created an
alt. Nothing special, just a guy standing around a mail box in Stormwind waiting
for the mail to arrive! Let me just tell you, this worked out beautifully. My
"main" was out gaining experience, picking up drops and gold and sending it to
my "donkey" for safe storage/trading or selling....
