Exploiting the Lazy and Less Informed
Introduction:
This post is simple: How do you earn gold from taking advantage of people who are just lazy (don't feel like finding a vendor in a new city, etc), or exploiting the "noobs" of the game (people who don't know where to find ______ for _____ gold, so you sell them easily obtained items for profit).
What can you do to help?

Moonberry Juice! Moonberry Juice - Item - World of Warcraft
This is an item for the quest: A Fizzy Fusion - Quest - World of Warcraft
The quest can be obtained from Darkmoon Faire, might be a good idea to sell them (in a stack of 5) when the event is going.
Oh and also, Simple Flour, Simple Flour - Item - World of Warcraft
This is also an item for a DarkmoonFaire quest, Putting the Crunch in the Frog - Quest - World of Warcraft
Also a common ingredient for cooking recipes, maybe some ppl around are to lazy to find the vendor and use AH instead.
Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. good programmers write code that humans can understand.

The Rock and Problem Solving Pendant
Basically these items have very high ilevel so they are popular among twinks around 19-39, a lot of people are too lazy to go to Silvermoon to get the Rock and Shatt for Problem Solving Pendant, I've been selling the Rock for around a 400g markup daily.

With Winter Veil event coming up soon. There is always a seasonal quest where you you need to craft 5 gingerbread cookies and Ice Cold Milk. These items can be posted on the AH and people will always buy them despite the absurd markup. Ice Cold Milk is found for almost any General Goods Vendor. Small Eggs which are require to craft Gingerbread cookies can be easily farmed.
Horde: Dragonhawks in Eversong Woods.
Alliance: Moonkin Darkshore

Counterfeit Rastakhan Mask - Item - World of Warcraft
can be sold on the auction house!
You get this item by buying Sack of discarded hearthstones from griftah next to the horde to for the zuldazar port. You must then do a series of trades until you get the mask. The mask can then be sold on the auction house or used to trade in for a toy back at griftah (Zandalari Effigy Amulet - Item - World of Warcraft) can buy as many hearthstones sacks as you want and can keep on trading into masks. I have priced them 10k each on my server and have sold 70+ atm. If your selling them slowly make sure to undercut any competitors, and make a trial character on the alliance / log into an alliance alt and write in trade that you are selling the item for 15k or 20k Nd it's the only way to get the toy without having a horde max level toon, although a lie it'll make many people search the ah find the cheaper one and buy you out so they can make their own profit

Selling Talisman of True Treasure Tracking - Item - World of Warcraft it was a lot easier to trick noobs into buying it back in BC, Wrath, Cata, and MoP but I can still find the occasional sucker who thinks this will give them better loot.
