is it known?
guess its cheaper to buy a stack of green gems, craft them and hope for a perfect rather than buying a perfect green or blue gem

Seems to be about 10% and on my server perfect gems are worth a lot less than normal rare gems so I would say go for perfect gems.
numbers anyone?
Well, before you get too excited, it looks like they hotfix nerfed the perfect cuts. Just made some gems and the perfect cuts are now green quality and the stats were not as good as the blue-quality gems...
Edit: And did some more cuts and got a blue-quality perfect gem. So I don't know what to think!
Edit2: On closer inspection, even though the cut was green, it was the correct stats (same as blue-quality). No clue why it is green-quality when all the others are blue, however.

10% feels right from my overall gem cutting. Cutting 33 gems last night netted me 3 perfect cuts.

There you go! Same stats as a blue-quality, but for whatever reason it's green...
Strange, did it look that way before you socketed it? Perhaps there's a bug in the display of socketed gems. Anywho, it's not like it makes any difference.
Id the droprate of perfects just get hotfixed?
I just cut 41 and got 1 perfect out of it.
Naw. I cut 20 of the purple ones while leveling jewelcrafting to 600 today, got 1.
I cut 20 green. Got 6.
It's completely luck based.
Totally agree with whats being said with being luck - I cut two stacks of gems hoping and praying - only got 3 perfect gems
