More RNG with a goldpile to ease up on the RNG?

just gold farming in AH, no reason any more to get out of AH to farm rare items if you can just buy them

You can't really buy them out, or am I missing something? If so, then there will be huge bid wars coming. :-D

There's nothing I'll bother buying... Except maybe Mimiron's head :]

On topic though, I think it's a good idea. I've collected "rare" items on multiple characters, but if I'm honest, I seldom use them... Why should I give a damn if someone has a mount I have? Or a title I have? Good for them I say!

That's why I think the change is good... If it makes the people that use it happy, and acts as a much needed gold sink then... Hurray!

like seriously if this goes live i will be really mad, not to mention this will be a secret promotion to illegeal gold sites not to mention the amount of anger from people who farmed the same stupid raid/instance for 2-3years for a single mount

I did KZ weekly for 2 years during TBC on my Warlock & Hunter. I've solo'd it since I've been able to on my Warrior, using a Bloodthirst Prot spec during WotLK... Over 200 kills, and I still haven't seen it drop.

I've cleared MC 104 times, and no Eye of Sulfuras...

If either of these items hit the Blackmarket AH, do you know what I'll do? Nothing. If it makes people happy, they can do what they want (so long that is doesn't hurt other people/break the ingame rules). Why should I care what other people have?

What about those that DID waste their time farming mounts for years and never got them?
Looking at YOU, swift zulian tiger!

Thank you Blizzard to make me farm STH, MGT, Karazhan, Stratholme and I don't know which other !@#$ instances forever to get rares (of which half I don't even have...) and I can now just sit in a city and play the AH. At the end of the month I log in, put up some bids and I get a shiny rare mount in my mailbox. Same as you did with retired mounts or rates which you gave to alts, now this makes sense... (read: sarcasm here.)
If you want to make money out of your costumers: let them pay to reroll a character with everything on it such as rare mounts or companions and vanity items... But making a Black Market Auction House where we'll see a Blazing Drake or Ashes pop up every 6 weeks will be funny to see. You earn those rare mounts or vanity items by committing yourself to farm, run instances, take time to form a raid to get a boss down, not sitting in a city and hope to see it pop in your mailbox. Next step like D3: spend RL money on the WoW AH to buy items ? I feel ashamed to have bought the Annual Pass and pay for this crap to come online.
