Can anyone think of any reason to save badges beyond the day patch 3.2 hits? Across all my chars I have something close to 3000 badges I think, which should net somewhere around 200 epic gems. Plus of course PVP honor, but hopefully there is something new to buy with that. Plus Wintergrasp tokens, I've collected an insane amount just by trying to play in 1 offense every day, and i think 15 tokens convert to 2k honor?

My guess is patch 3.3, aka Icecrown, will not intro new epic gems but instead new head/shoulder enchants, so I can't really think of a good reason to save heroism/valor badges beyond 3.2 launch day.

Not sure how the day-0 dynamics are going to work out, when Inscription came out I made 15k+ gold just cranking out the top glyphs, almost same amounts when 3.1 hit and got a few glyph books. But it seems like everyone and their brother are JCs, and everyone is going to learn bold/runed red recipe, so will it just be a FFA race-to-the-bottom on the AH for those gems? I wonder if pursuing a cut of something like +sp/spi or +arp would be better - beyond the pure +sp, +str, +ap not sure which gems are hot sellers.
