This has been the case every major patch and prices rocketed every patch. So i don't expect this patch to be any different.

ATM on my server i cant sell epic gems etc for love nor money massive supply little demand, so i have stopped transmuting and cutting them even, this and glyphs where my main gold makers.

So question is do i start to liquidate all my matts stored in the bank. I'd reckon i have about 30k to 40k gold of matts in the bank mostly:

  • * Enchant Mats
  • * Rep turn in items, classic, BC and WotLK.
  • * Leathers, chtin and Scals (WotLK)
  • * 300+ various eternals
  • * 200+ Frozen orbs / 30+ crusader orbs / 30+ abyss Crystals etc
  • * 120 uncut epic gems various.
  • * lots of WotLK herbs.
  • * 120+ snowfall ink.
I'd keep all enchanting mats, gems, rep things and herbs.
- Mill the herbs, get inks, with patch 4.0.1 coming people will suddenly need 100x as much glyphs as normal, so prices should rise. You'll be sure to sell things quite fast, that's for sure.
- especially gems will be more wanted when patch 4.0.1 hits due to mastery and armor pen being removed. focus on red gems i'd say.
- rep items will probably sell when people start getting new chars. Allthough i'm not to sure on that. I don't think prices will drop a lot from what there are now anyways.
- eternals, leathers etc. I'd say lose them asap. That's what i'm doing atm. They keep dropping in price and i wouldn't know why they should rise. You could keep them and hope that prices will rise in half a year, due to very slim supply.
