120 k sounds good to me
I think everyone is discounting the prices of living steel a little too much. Sure, right now the mats will cost 15k. But when 5.4 hits, I imagine not long after LS prices will jump quite a bit. I'm at 27 right now and I'm using my alch for trillium to LS xmutes. So not only do I think the price of raw mats will increase (maybe not substantially, but somewhat) you'll still have the premium for daily CDs. Those of us that are picking up LS at it's current price won't feel the hit as bad as those that aren't thinking into the future and picking it up while it's low. Just my two cents. Either way, I'll use the first one I make and then sell them after that. Hopefully I can get my alt shammy leveled and use the alch xmutes on that to help a bit.
It will sell as much as the Jewelcrafting Panthers did in the beginning, around 100K-120K, then decrease drastically in price after the first month.
I'll just use the first one and sell the 2nd one i get tbh
Any where between 50-100k and I will be happy. With 3 Engineers that will be some good gold.
If I can get more than 100k I'll sell it, if not I'll give it to my husband. I actually dropped inscription on one of my lowbies to level engineering in addition to my main being an engineer for years. I have a serious packrat problem so I had more than enough ore to level 1-600 engineering for like 200g (had to buy some odds and ends that I couldn't be bothered to farm). Actually I have mats to level at least one more engineer from scratch so I might do that on another alt too. I foresee the market getting flooded fairly quickly with them so I'm not betting on these mounts to be a major moneymaker just yet. I'll produce 2-3 the first 30 days and see what happens.
Sooo many people here should put the game down for awhile and learn about simple economics and supply and demand.
I mean really.

This. Prices are set by the market. I can put one up on the AH for 800k all day long, but it won't sell. If I'm someone who doesn't understand economics and puts it up for little more than the mats are worth, then someone who understands the market more than me is going to purchase my cheap Golem and repost it for what it's really going for, making a HUGE profit off of my work.
My plan is to do just that. Rather than mess with the trouble of making the mount, I'm going to snipe cheap Golems and sell them for more -- taking advantage of bleeding heart idiots that don't want to price gouge their fellow players.

LOL 3k? The cost is more than that on Quel'dorei I have spent 9k so far leveling up my alts engineering. I just got to cataclysm materials.

This is what I plan on doing is making one each month on my engineer and just saving the gold until next expansion is released.

You would barely break even on materials.

Exactly this.
Didn't want to make another thread about the sky golem, so figure I'd ask here.
How many cycles do you guys plan on making of golems? (A cycle being first 30 days after patch is 1st cycle, the following 30 days and 2nd golem you make is 2nd cycle, etc etc)
Considering my realm? Like, 200k. Esp with V-Realms.
Probably 200-250k. Unfortunately if it's easy to learn and craft, there's gonna be some serious competition.

I just leveled another engineer, so now I have 3. Will be making some decent gold from this now. I will likely sell mine for around 100k but prob less because im on a very low pop server, I will for sure be on the connected realms so not sure how that will affect the market.
(Yes I leveled another engineer to make another mount, and for PvP reasons on my hunter)
Does anyone know exactly how to obtain the recipe for making the new daily engineering CD?

I can see the market getting flooded with these on day 30. I would love to get around 50-100k for one, if i am unable too, I will just keep it for myself
