Volatile Earth and Volatile Fire Markets are Down...Way Down
Right now the prices of both Volatile Fire and Volatile Earth are nice and low. This is a direct result of the increased influx of Volatiles from players completing their Firelands Invasion daily quests. Tons of players getting lots of extra Volatile Earth and Volatile Fire leads to a supply overload and market saturation. As always, market saturation is followed by a drop in prices of the Volatile Fire and Volatile Earth.
Further compounding the increased influx of Volatile Fire and Volatile Earth are the players that are maximizing the Firelands starter quests for extra Volatiles and getting extra Volatiles from Druids of the Talon quests. If you are doing the Firelands Invasion daily quests over and over every day, why not maximize the quests to get the most Volatile raw materials you can each and every day, while completing the daily quests you were going to be doing daily anyway?
How To Profit From Cheap Volatile Earth and Fire
With the drop in prices of both Volatile Fire and Volatile Earth, we can take advantage of the lower production cost of many items. Volatile Fire and Volatile Earth are raw material components in many of the profitable markets. The drop in prices of the raw materials equates to lower production costs. Lower production costs mean either more profits (if you can continue to sell at the same end product selling prices) or an increased ability to battle and undercut in a new market.
This is one of the reason's you won't catch me stockpiling pre-crafted goods. I only craft items prior to listing them on the auction house. I do not mass craft expensive items ahead of time, because you never know when something will change in the World of Warcraft that will lead to a major price drop. Anyone who stockpiled items crafted with Volatile Fire and Volatile Earth prior to the price drop has sunk more gold into the crafting cost of that item. So someone new entering the market has cheaper crafting costs than their pre-crafted sunk costs, which means the new entrant can be more competitive with their pricing.
Below is a listing of some of the profitable markets that include Volatile Earth and Volatile Fire. I would look into these markets on your server and calculate how much profit is to be made. Many of these markets are still enjoying higher prices (probably due to market veterans trying to keep the prices up since they may have sunk costs and are used to a higher production cost) and are prime for moving in as a bottom feeder, undercutting below the lowest priced craftables.
