I've transferred characters between my two accounts a couple of times, that's fine, but both accounts must be in your name, or at least have a matching surname and address (in the case where you've shared an account with a child, and wish the child to have his/her own account now), otherwise it just won't happen. >> And even if it were possible, selling anything from in-game for real-life >> currency is against the EULA/TOS. > >I read all the eula and tos today's morning, before posting here, and it >seems to me that I can't sell *item(s)*, but not my toon The characters are most definitely included. People try to sell whole accounts at times, but usually those accounts get shut down, since it's very much not allowed. -- EU-Draenor: Sagart (85 Undead Priest) Tairbh (85 Tauren Druid) Buinne (81 Troll Shaman) Balgair (80 Human Rogue) Ruire (80 Blood Elf Paladin)
