World of Warcraft Gold Making in Cataclysm Guide

World of Warcraft Gold Making in Cataclysm Guide by Zurble
This guide will give you a list of things that could sell quite nicely in the Auction House or through advertising them in Trade Chat. If you are looking for bots, cheats, hacks, acount theft tools, or other dishonest methods of aquiring gold, this is not… I repeat… NOT the place to find these things. This is a guide for players who wish to make some cash while following the Blizzard Terms Of Service and who wish to avoid any scam tactics at all costs. It will consist of trade goods to gather and sell, and where / how to obtain these materials. 

Now that I got that off my chest, there is just one important quote that I need to share with you before we begin:
Time is money, friend.” – Goblin Merchants
This is absolutely correct. Goblins don’t lie!.. most of the time… um, sometimes?.. Ok, atleast this one statement is true. 

If you can take the time to gather trade goods for over an hour, this is a trait that will greatly bennifit you in the gold-making long run… If you can last longer, your profit will increase. The impatient and easily frusterated dare not tread the path I will be laying before you… If these words describe you, turn around right now before you end up in a mental hospital swinging imaginary swords at the wall yelling profanities about flying in circles and chasing shiny things.

The following lists will tell you what trade goods you should be looking for, based on professions you are trained in. If you have the gold, do not be afraid to purchase specialty bags that can only hold certain items. The proffit you make will fill in the hole quickly enough.
