In this series of posts, I hope to accomplish several things. All of which should hopefully help you and I take a look at our glyphs and see which ones we probably shouldn't be bothering with.
Things to Keep in Mind
My Glyph Pricing:
- Minimum = 60g
- Normal = 300g
- Maximum = 600g
My Ink Costs:
- Minimum = Free is good!!!
- Maximum = 10g
- I do no purchase herbs/pigments/inks that result in greater than a 10g/ink cost
- Lately with the drop in herb prices, I'll be reducing my minimum glyph prices to stay at about double my max crafting cost.
I've been posting EVERY glyph that I currently know on my main scribe. If the prices are below my threshold, it still posts at my normal price. For those, I've been buying all below my max crafting cost up to a stack of 20, and they're still getting heavily undercut, so we'll see the reasoning behind that later.

There are a good handful of glyphs that have not sold at all for me which I will name in the next post in this series. Also, keep in mind that I do not currently know the following glyphs, which are all Timeless Isle drops or World Drops, introduced in 5.4. If you're after a full list of those glyphs, check out the
List of 5.4 Glyphs on my 5.4 Preparation post.
Unknown Glyphs (Updated 6/04/2014)

the Executor - World Drop (actually I just got this one to drop while writing this)
I should really get out on my scribe and grind these! I really can't wait to get into the details as to why some of these sell better than others. Also, I'd like to send a huge thanks to
Stede of
Late Night With Stede for giving me a spreadsheet to work with for these glyphs. That spreadsheet helped me identify the source of each glyph rather quickly.
A Little Summary
I was surprised to see that some of my top sellers are trainer taught glyphs and not surprised at all to see so many Northrend Research and Book of Glyph Mastery taught glyphs. We'll take a closer look at those in the 3rd part of this post. Check back later for Part 2 of this series where I will list the glyphs that haven't sold at all in the last 3 months.
