• Not tradeable. It binds when picked up, so it is earned in play and never listed on the auction house.
• Vendors sell it for 8g 38s 31c and buy it back for 1g 67s 66c. That is the ceiling for an auction price while vendors stock it.
• Disenchants into Large Glowing Shard, worth about 60s 60c on Normal Alliance US today. Odds below.
