Anyone still able to make a decent profit from arcane dust? Prices have dropped like a rock, as supply has skyrocketed due to daily quests/supply bags. Where I could usually unload dust for 1.45g/each, currently prices fluctuate from 1g-1.25g. The real kicker is that there are upwards of 7+ pages of dust all the time. Granted there are no posting fees, so at least I'm not losing anything by posting them, but I am certainly not making anything near what I did pre-patch.

I was hoping it would settle out a little bit after the influx of people doing dailies, but it doesn't seem like thats going to happen. I have an entire guild bank tab filled with dust that I'm not sure what to do with. Ill probably hold out until some more WOTLK profession information is released to see if it will be worth it to just hold on to it.

My current money-maker is terocone though. Prices are just going crazy on it, any given day I'll see prices of 30-60g/stack. There is very little supply going on the AH at any given time (typically 5-15 stacks, plus someone listing them 1 by 1...), and I was unable to unload 8 stacks the other night for 50g/stack (sold in under 10 minutes, was the only terocone on the AH at the time). I've been buying up any terocone less than ~1.75g and re-listing for 40-50g/stack depending on the time/day (last-minute pot making raiders have no issue paying 50g/stack for it). Late night/early morning I can easily farm up 3-4 stacks in an hour, 150g+/hour not taking Fel Lotus(25g+) or motes of life into account.
