Hmm, odd! Those shouldn't be scaling, enchants of all kinds should be
(mighty annoying when my enchanter is lvl 85, doing enchants for my
lvl 90 characters, and scratching my head trying to work out which is
the one they need - the lvl 90 ones show as *lower* numbers than the
old lvl 85 ones if you're lvl 85!), but I wasn't aware of bandages
doing that! 

Would actually be a useful thing if they put it in fully for WoD,
resulting in actually useful numbers on bandages - on one alt doing
the ironman challenge (level with no gear, no talents among other
things), I noticed that I had over 800 health, and my only ways of
regenning health were 600 health over 24 sec food, or 161 health
bandage. What on earth use is a 161 health bandage ever going to be to
someone with 800+ health? And this was with *no* gear, your average
heirloomed person will have well over 1k, probably 1.5k plus....

For what it's worth, if you list stuff like that really cheap, the odd
person may buy it, especially if it requires lvl 78 not 80 - I tend to
buy really cheap stuff like that even when I know I'll replace it in
Hyjal - because hey, I'm bored of Hyjal, I might wanna hang out in
Icecrown or Storm Peaks for a change before going to the next
expansion's zones :-) I wouldn't spend a fortune, but 15g or so?
Probably would consider it. I'm quite possibly very unusual in that
though :-P

Ouch, I know that feeling whenever I pick up an old alt, sucks having
to vendor stuff that would've been good a few years back. If anything
has a good model though, it's worth trying to sell it for transmog
purposes - I paid 2k for a random lvl 70-ish BoE epic a while back
(think I was 85 at the time, couldn't solo the only raid which
contained the same model so grabbed the BoE), for example; matched my
transmog perfectly, you see! :-)
