I just saw some Perfect Fractured sunstones when I was browsing for the fractured sunstones earlier tonight. As the noob JCer I am I want to know how those can be made? ^^ -- Peter T.

After spending approx an hour on searching on this topic I finally found this info: <http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/11/02/the-economics-of-perfect-gem-cuts/> And of course I found this page less than a minute after I posted my question... Anyhoo! I have loads of green quality gems in stock so its time to do some cutting tomorrow. :) -- Peter T.

Anyhoo! I have loads of green quality gems in stock so its >time to do some cutting tomorrow. :) Bear in mind that nowadays, you can turn green quality gems into metagems - http://www.wowhead.com/spell=140060 - and it may be more worthwhile saving them for that - the perfect gem cuts tend to be overlooked by people looking for blue gems (even though they're the same stats) and so sell for less than blues in my experience while metas are still really high, on my server anyway. It's handy if you've got some greens you want rid of, yes, but since the meta gem recipe was added I've stopped cutting greens unless I have a really excessive number of one colour compared with the others.

I was in lack of time for a guild raid last night and didnt have the time to log my JCer so i had to buy the missing 5 gems for my lock's brandnew gear. And this is where I found thos perfect ones. Those were and still are 25-50% cheaper than the non-perfect ones. But I dont care as the "normal" gems still sells quite well. I just sold a fractured sun's radiance (320 mastery) for around 350g an hour ago despite there is a handful of perfect fractured sunstones on AH at less than 200g buyout. But its just a question of time... :) > metas are still really high, on my server anyway.

Indeed. The best selling metas (mainly those with 3% crit) goes for 7-800g on my realm. A very steady income as I make 1-2 of them for AH each day. Thanks for the farm, Blizzard! ^^ Oh well gold gold gold... -- Peter T.

But its just a question of time... :) Oh wow I like your server's prices! I'm celebrating if a gem even reaches 100g lol, usually only orange colour does that, suns radiance cuts are doing well to get above 60g! Would love to be able to sell for 350g :-) >> metas are still really high, on my server anyway.

I wont bother his price philosophy with him as I'm satisfied with the 700-1500g daily income from those. And a few weeks ago another dumbie went by the AH and started selling shoulder enchants for 250g despite they sold quite well at 5-700g before his arrival. I consider giving him a lesson soon as I have almost 700 unused starlights in stock and I guess a market reset wont work in this case. I dont mind about competition. But lowering the prices to a ridiculous level due to lack of knowledge is just <insert something ugly here>... :/ -- Peter T.

Omfg, those prices are absolutely mental lol - you must be so rich :-P Although I guess if gems are that high, maybe ore is also rather high so perhaps a little less profitable; I've been annoyed that it's roughly doubled in price the last couple of weeks to 12g per trillium ore and 3g50 per ghost iron/kyparite ore, but maybe that's cheap compared with some other servers? :-) >And a few weeks ago another dumbie went by the AH and started selling >shoulder enchants for 250g despite they sold quite well at 5-700g before >his arrival.

But lowering the prices to a >ridiculous level due to lack of knowledge is just <insert something ugly >here>... :/ Urgh I know the feeling, some <insert rude word here> lowered the entire glyph market to 25g each for months on end at the start of MoP, I just gave up tbh, lots of them had been 200g+ before that, and the majority were over 50g, so for every last one to be down at 25g was so painful. Seems that idiot has finally moved on; a lot still are around 25g as people got used to the price being pitched at that lvl, but some are 50g or so and ink of the sea ones are mainly above 100g now so phew, at least I can make *some* profits again!
