What are going on in the gem market?
After patch 3.2 and the introduction of Epic gems the gem market on at least my server have been incredibly volatile and still continues to be so. I had expected the usual trend of high prices right at the start with a inverse exponential decline after a week or two towards a quite stable base price. Uncut gems still fluctuate between 100 and 200G in less then 24h and cut gems are even worse. Common cuts like solid, or bold only fluctuate by about 150G, while the somewhat more uncommon, but still useful, cuts like enduring, rigid and regal are between 150G and 500G trending towards the lover end.
This is of course a great gold making opportunity for anybody with a bit of market sence. If you’re a jewelcrafter to boot you’ll be able to take advantage of the sometimes huge differences between cut and uncut gems. Just watch out as cut prices seem to stay somewhat behind the uncut gems and a rise in blue uncuts will often leave blue cut gems below the price of uncuts for some hours before they start rising to.
