Cake anyone?
Are you even a scribe? or haven't you been playing since the start of WOTLK or it's your server... But what you are saying isn't correct.
Vellum: Is a some income but really not that much.
Darkmoon: WTF, These stopped selling when ToC 5 came out.
Starter Epics: again WTF > ToC 5 man
Minor glyphs: Good source of income.
In addition of making off-hands we will be able to make relics and librams etc. But we should also be able to make trinkets and in addition to that we should get boss drops to keep up with the competition with the standard stuff that drops. The whole ToC 5 man incident is black page in our books.
As a non scribe, I love it.The biggest change, Glyphs are no longer a consumable item. You learn them and can swap them at any time after that, without having to buy them again.
I reckon scribes in general won't be pleased by this though.
Wow you're looking at the profession now, at the end of the expansion. I looked at it as a whole. Every profession offers a burst of income at the start of every expansion. And guess what. Inscription offers the biggest burst of income. The amount of money you could make off of starter epics and darkmoon cards more than made up for any disadvantage you might have had towards later stages of the expansion.
And yes I have a scribe as well as every other profession. I sell vellums like a mad man. Excellent way to make money.

I sell vellums like crazy on my server. Guess it is different. And you talk about cost vs. profit. I never ran into that issue since I have a herbalist and never spent anything on mats.
If you want to compare profit though on my server for instance Scribes have it the best. Herbs are dirt cheap on the ah whereas JC have it hardest since cut gems almost exclusively sell for less than uncut gems. So buying raw mats isn't even an option for them.
