Holy Cow! I spent 50k Last night! - Cheap Mats & Return Prices

Holy Cow! I spent 50k Last night! No joke there was one farmer selling everything at very cheap price! I got 480 Cardinal Rubies at 75g per, 35 stacks of Abyss Crystals at 12.5g per, 50 Ametrines for 45g per, and couple minor things. I must admit I feel poor now :(

By the end of the night I managed to flip some of the cardinals at 110g ea, I still have roughly 340 Cardinal Rubies, I cut roughly 25 Cardinal Rubies, and posted them at an average price of 157g, within minutes, I sold several gems.

As for the Ametrines, I am actually keeping and cutting these, only because they don't really sell to well on my server. Ametrines sell much better when cut, especially when cut into Reckless. I can sell Ametrines at an average price of 146g.

I shattered the Abyss Crystals, and came up with roughly 900 Greater Cosmic Essence, and 2500 Infinite Dust. Dust on my server typically sells for 30-35g per stack, tonight it was at 37g per stack. Greater Cosmic Essences sell for 13-16g each. I managed to sell half the dust at 32.5/stack and roughly 200 Greater Cosmic Essences at 13g ea before calling it quits for the night.

All in all I made about 25-30k from everything that I listed here, I bought other things along with what's listed here, but if I listed everything then this post would become an encyclopedia ^.^

I guess the moral of this post is to get you to watch trade chat! Farmers & Hackers are trying to sell their stuff as fast as they can, and as soon as people see good deals it becomes a dog fight. Don't be afraid to dump your gold on mats that are extremely cheap, You're going to get it all back and then some. One tip I can offer is as an avid Alliance player, most hackers & farmers reside in Stormwind, Even though I hate the city ( Ironforge is 10 times better ), I can trade with them faster then other people, giving me access to even more mats that wouldn't have of been there if I had to travel to the farmer.

On a side note, the flask market on my server has officially crashed. I used to be able to sell flask at 20-22g per, now I'm lucky if they go above 16g. The sad thing is, that I have roughly 150 stacks of lichbloom, several hundred frost lotus & other herbs. Lichbloom prices have bottomed out at 18g/stack. They used to be at roughly 40-50g/stack. I'm not a very happy puppy with the current state of the flask market, I've tried to raise prices here and then, but everyone just undercuts their way down to 16g per flask.
