MMOSHOP - In depth
Mmoshop is another well known virtual currency seller based in California, USA. A Chinese born entrepreneur,
Xu Yunbo found the company in 2004 while he was studying environmental management in University of South Florida. Mmoshop grew rapidly and soon became a target for
IGE to acquire. Operating under IGE, the company is still recognized as a well known gold seller but it is getting smaller and smaller every day. A look at
Alexa`s web traffic over 5 years indicates customers are dropping during 2006. Mmoshop also owns several other gold selling sites including adena4sale.com, eq2sale.com, ffxi4sale.com, wow4sale.com.
Chatting with his old schoolmate in China, Xu Yunbo found the access to 45 game workshops his friend owned and started selling in Diablo 2. He knew this would be more profitable than the industry`s leader IGE as his cost of labor was significantly lower. Mmoshop became one of the most competitive rivals to IGE with the record of
netting more than 16,000 US dollars in one day. Xu Yunbo at the age of 27 met with 24 years old IGE founder, Brock Pierce to discuss the acquisition of Mmoshop. IGE finally took over and brought Xu Yunbo back to Shanghai for the management position at IGE China branch where he looked after the supply of virtual currencies for IGE`s worldwide demand.
Mmoshop has a reputation for good customer service and prompt delivery. Verigame gave a score of
4.2 out of 5 in its review. There are no major report on the company`s fraud or scam.
