AH error in your favor, collect epic shoulders...

I need to rant to some people that will understand my pain.

I am slapping myself so hard. I crafted the plate shoulders for myself, shit stats. I rerolled them 4 times, shit stats. I gave up. I went to the AH and found the perfect pair I had hoped for, dropped 30k and intended to list the ones I had crafted to try to recoup some of my costs.

I'll note: I'm exhausted right now. Toddlers are hard work! Toddlers that like love to not sleep are even harder work. I am one tired momma. The mini-beast finally gives in and takes a nap! I rush back to wow to do some of my wizard chores. Listing my crafted shoulders was on my to-do list. I visit the AH in Assram and proceed to list my shoulders for 25k bid, 30k buy out. I thought that seemed pretty reasonable for a decent dps plate wearer roll (crit and mastery).

An hour or so later I check back in. I see the mail from the AH and get excited, I made some money back, huzzah! I open the mail. 38g drops into my bags. Uh, what? I just stare at the screen in pure shock. 30g. I listed my 640 plate shoulders that I invested all of those materials into for 30-fucking-gold! Arrrrggghhhh. I am SO mad at myself. I tried PM'ing the guy, hoping I sold them to someone understanding... He logged off without responding. So, yeah, I'm out 30k but that dude got some rocking shoulders for a STEAL. Damnit.

Someone posted about doing this with a helm the other day. The lesson here is to not trade while tired.

It sure is. The whole time I was listing it something jus felt off, it didn't feel right. I shouldn't have ignored me trying to warn myself!

Earlier I was buying mats off the AH for Alchemy. I needed Alchemical Catalyst. Typed Catalyst into TSM and got a whole list of what I needed but everyone is posting single item stacks and I needed 100. I start clicking like its going out of style and accidentally bought a 585 ring for 5k that is absolutely worthless to me and probably half the server. I listed it anyway so heres hoping.
