5.0 - Picking Up Cheap Companion Pets




I've talked to a few people and everyone seems to think that 5.0 will be the time to sell companion pets - I disagree.

There will be a slightly higher demand for a short while as people grab some pets for themselves, but the supply will increase by a ton for one reason:
The Pet Caging system.

Using this, you will be able to sell a pet that used to be bound to your character (excluding some TCG, CE, promotional and Blizzcon pets).

People that have switched mains, people who enjoy pimping their alts and people who have multiples of pets will now sell them, because they only need one - pets are account wide.
It'll be a great time to pick up some cheap pets, not only from the AH but also via Trade Chat.

Be specific when asking in Trade.
There'll be many people with sought after and rare drop companions that do not appreciate their value, or just don't know what they're worth.
Find them and buy from them!

I've compiled a list of previously BoP pets that you should look out for as they are now tradeable with pet cages.

Holidays:
[Ice Chip]
[Toxic Wasteling]
[Lump of Coal]
[Clockwork Rocket Bot]
[Feline Familiar]

Secondary professions:
[Sea Pony]
[Toothy's Bucket]
[Muckbreath's Bucket]
[Chuck's Bucket]
[Snarly's Bucket]
[Giant Sewer Rat]
[Strand Crawler]
[Magical Crawdad Box]

[Pterrordax Hatchling]
[Voodoo Figurine]
[Clockwork Gnome]
[Crawling Claw]

Drops:
[Scorched Stone]
[Mojo]
[Fox Kit] Keep your eyes out for this one. It's pretty rare.
[Mr. Grubbs]
[Tiny Shale Spider]
[Smolderweb Egg]
[Worg Carrier]


These ones might not be sellable, but is worth looking out for them just in case.

Promotion:
[Unhatched Mr. Chilly]
[Murkimus' Tiny Spear]
[Murkimus' Little Spear]

Quests:
[Rat Cage]
[Snail Shell]
[Turtle Box]
[Piglet's Collar]
[Legs]
[Sleepy Willy]
[Elekk Training Collar]
[Egbert's Egg]

[Lashtail Hatchling]
[A Jubling's Tiny Home]

Achievements:
[Kirin Tor Familiar]
[Brilliant Kaliri]
[Nuts' Acorn]
[Pebble]

These are no longer available. Buy them ASAP. They should have priority for your Trade spamming.
[Vampiric Batling]
[Gold Medallion]

The usual valuable pets such as the Whelplings and [Captured Firefly] you will also likely find for much cheaper than usual - be sure to search for them as well

I hope you enjoyed reading this, and if anything it will provide you with a nice list of pets to look out for when 5.0 hits.
If you have anything to add to the list, please say so!
