Agreed. I've been searching for items with both gold find and magic find, in order to complement buying and selling on the auction house. It's pretty nice when blues drop more often than whites (or at least seem to). I'm not sure it affects yellows, but it seems like they drop more often.
Gold really stacks up quick with these items as well.

I'm gonna invest in some Gold Find myself. I don't need all these Dextirity gems

i tried it for a little but tbh it sucks. DH is far too fragile to be up in the mix. figure you would have a hard time in nightmare and it would be impossible in hell let alone infreno
With high gold and magic find you have plenty of gold to buy what you want, and the increased magic drops help to feed this gold. Some of the buyout prices are way out of whack, so I've been selling things in droves, by being reasonable or even possibly under priced. It's too bad that 10 items is the max for the AH, it would be nice to dump it all at once.

It's a niche build that will never be optimal and probably very hard to work with on Hell/Inferno. Not that you can't have fun with it!

I sell everything at the AH. When the 10 slots are full, I just sell it in-game and get rid of it. Or give it to my friends in the party if they think they could use it. It seems like I get more and more magic/rares as the difficulties increase.

Your inventory updates instantly. Only your unsaved quest progress would be lost.

Near the end of Act 3 Nightmare I found a 2H crossbow to replace my 1Hers that upped my DPS from 1800 to 3000. Found some minor gear upgrades and finished Act 4 with ~3300 dps. Then I bought another 2H crossbow for 11k that puts me at 5100. Whee.
Yeah a good Magic Find will cause blues to drop almost every time and often more than whites even on Normal, and rares have more frequent chances to drop from Champion/Elite mobs and random sets of enemies, chests, barrels, etc. Combine selling those off with having a high Gold Find and you can gather a lot of money quickly. With a good GF stat most mobs become a spurting fountain of gold.
As pointed out earlier though you have to be wary when grouping with other players, as those values are averaged out across the group.

Quoting my question from the previous page. Does anyone know the answer?

So, I'm up to Act II on Hell and here's the current stats.
Still my 110% Magic Find build but my DPS is up to 3.2k which then goes up when I use Breath of Heaven because of the Blazing Wrath Rune. I've got a few pieces sitting in my inventory in case I need to squeeze a few hundred more points of damage out including the two legendaries I picked up. Both have great Monk stats, close to 90ish DEX/VIT a pop. The belt, amazingly, was an AH purchase for 40k. I was blown away someone was selling it for that cheap because it had such good stats.
Here's the interesting thing though, look at my Scoundrel's DPS. It's up to 1325 which is more than enough for him to help me take down Hell mobs very nicely. Pretty amazing how much damage these guys can get. I'm going to try with the Enchantress/Templar later as well and I hope I can get them up there.

I asked earlier about not letting friends join your game but there's absolutely no way to appear offline or invisible is there?
One of my friends sends an invite literally every time I come online and I'm getting tired of telling him I want to solo.

My friend Demon Hunter 54 has about 12k DPS in Act 1 Hell. So it might be a DPS problem....but he also scours the AH night and day for perfect items.
Is there an explanation for the 10 AH limit? I understand in the RMAH, but retarded I can't dump the 30 rares I have across my mule characters.
i put a sword on my templar with 113 DPS and he had 110 DPS listed under his F tab.

Yeah I'm around 3.5k, Act 1 Hell. Is your Vit high?
The whole point is to not be able to dump rares like that and to discourage bots.
its a survivability problem actually
Finally managed to sit down and finish a normal play through, not sure if I'll do more - guess that will depend on the terrible EU server stability.

The one real comparison I can make to WoW is simply how stupidly awful you can make your character look with some of this gear. Thank god for the invisibility dye

23 hour later, I beat the game with a 33 Wizard. Though I had to coop the game when
I thought Nightmare was easy at the start, until I hit some blue and gold monsters, died a number of times on them. When do greens drop? Hell? I haven't seen those and orange obviously, but am guessing those don't drop until Inferno. Wallers are fucking annoying. :/
I had to fight Diablo.

Auction House: is there any way to filter items for not having a stat? I'm sick of seeing Strength on everything. =(
Not having a hard time at all. The uniques and champions are easy to take down with impale and aoe, only trouble I have is with shielded, but then it just becomes vault away a sec, gain health from shadow power, vault back in and swing away. Sooo much fun.
Axially, it is probably more survival than the demon hunter has and more damage per mob too. The up close aoe I can dish out is nuts.
Glad you guys took the bait though. Was wanting to post more details vs opinions.

STR Gear and Atk Speed/Damage up items as well.
My Scoundrel's Rings/Amulets are DEX/Attack speed in that picture + big DEX items and a super powerful weapon boosted his damage to that high.

Must be almost impossibe to die with those stats. My barbarian has 3.5k dps or so in act one and it feels almost like I´m playing normal mode.
So... I tried a new demon hunter build and it's Amazing
Basically, it's all built around attack speed-onhit effects. Not only do I keep stuff permenantly stunned/frozen/feared/whatever, but I build so much hatred I can spam cluster arrow. My speed currently is 2.53 attacks per second. Factor in that grenades can gain 8 hatred per attack + mortal enemy... fuck it's spam time.
Here's the builds
Regular:

Boss (Aka never run outta hatred ever)
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/demon-hunter#UPkXjV!Yge!aZaZYY
Once I get Loaded for Bear, and Ballistics... it's going to be nuts

Around 12.5kish HP.
Finished the game.
If I was to rank the acts, it'd actually be in the order they came.
1 > 2 > 3 > 4
None of them are bad (though act 4 was disappointing compared to D2's act 4), I just really loved the setting and tone of act 1 above all others. The settings became less interesting to me as the game continued.
Final CG cutscene was rubbish, too.
At least Diablo was a challenging boss this time around. He was laughably easy in 1 and 2.

What difficulty are you in?
Hell. Lvl 51. I still get splatted if I'm stupid. But I think it's a really nice build group wise. The CC effects help the whole party... and being able to spam the highest hatred attack in the game is awesome. Once I get loaded for bear, I'll feel a lot better about damage though.
I'm also wearing items that give on hit stuff free/stun/fear.
