i've found saronite to be a disappointing moneymaker, mostly because 20bars sell for around 30g - 35g on the AH with around a 15g cost to put it up. and with the massive amount of saronite out there if you get underbid you just lost 15g, and 20bars vendors for 25g, just kinda weird. almost want to vendor the stuff to avoid the hassle :P

The secret to making sure it sells, is knowing who will buy it.

Try selling bars in stacks of 2.
Most blacksmith recipes only require 2 bars (or multiples of), so they really dont want to buy 20

The easiest way to sell saronite ore is to JC's.
I usually sell a 20 stack for 18g50s, which is under the market rate of about 20g on my server.
Now while you may be limiting your profit per stack, the JC's scream ZOMG at the cheap ore and buy everything you listed in one go, which beats losing a lot of money (saronite list price is way too high) on list fees.

@Myf

I hate when people do that. The only reason I'll buy your silly stacks of two bars is if they are the lowest buyout per bar. Even then, if there is a stack of 20 with a negligible difference in buyout per bar, I'll buy that instead to save time. After all, "Time is money, friend".
