WoW Gold from Enchanting Materials

I spoke recently about making a good amount of gold from Small Radiant Shards, simply buying and selling these in the AH, no enchanting skills needed.

I'm also having a lot of success with two other materials - Greater Eternal Essence and Greater Planar Essence.

Greater Planar Essence sells for about 5 gold on my server but sometimes there's a glut and it can be purchased for 3 gold or less. Other times there's a shortage and it will sell for 7 gold or more. I'd like to point to certain days of the week to buy and sell but there isn't any pattern I can discern.

Greater Eternal Essence sells for an average of 11 gold but, as with the Planar Essence, it can vary from 8 gold to 15 gold.

My technique is simple. I buy the Eternal Essence at less than 9 gold and immediately re-list it at 12 gold. There's no deposit on enchanting materials, so I don't care whether it sells or not! If it doesn't sell, I simply re-list it back in the AH at the same price - 12 gold. Sooner or later (usually sooner) it will sell netting me 3 gold each time. I can typically sell 30 of each a week. An easy 90 gold.

For the Planar Essence, I buy at less than 4 gold and sell at 6 gold. Another easy 60 gold a week.

You will need to some leg-work for this on your server. Check prices for these materials over the course of a week to watch for variations to determine your purchase and sale prices. If you've been using Auctioneer as I recommended, this will have been done for you.

Higher levels can always make money from WoW gold farming, but this method can be done at any level, Horde or Alliance.
