Suddenly, you can now one shot mobs via your auto attack, survive several counter attacks, and run away from bigger threats. In a nutshell, you can smash through the first 20 levels without thinking, in no time flat, even with cloth toons.

A bit of a ramble here, summary..I agree :-)

I had a stockpile from skilling an alt and for some reason many just 
don't sell, even for very low prices. Often others put their skillups up 
for less than the cost of me making them, not to mention managing a mat 
shopping list.

The BOA get a few mix and match over time but the replaceable items get 
enchants as well. Whatever I have, whatever is low on the AH.

Usually every ten levels or so on full 1-80 alts, when back at the bank 
to get the heroes board. Being so OP there is little real need to 
replace say a boot with a movement enchant until something -much- better 
came along.

I guess people go for the max level stuff even though you can do a slot 
for 100g over all levels.

and undermine journal for reference.

e.g Note this is one realm, prices differ.

I had a stack of tuskar vitality

Even though it suggest they are ~50g, it doesn't mean they actually 
sell, I have managed to fritter away 15 on boots, and sold 5.
Maybe if I wanted to resub every weekend for a year I have thrown away 
750 gold, but I wouldn't do that so they are worth..much less than the 
time and effort, probably even saved time<->gold. If I wanted to get 
into juggling enchants maybe but thats not my niche.

Same thing for the chest +all stats etc.

I think the great majority of characters are from longtime players, many 
alts with many professions and they fill expensive slots themselves.
For them the AH is mostly for convenience, when they want *THAT* NOW.

The few fresh players, or returning after a long period, don't have much 
gold, they can't pay much even if they know what they could use.
