Why?

Blizzard takes a 15% cut, plus $1 from each RMAH sale. That means nothing will be on sale for less than $1.15 at any point. For $1.15+, it better be a pretty good item to warrant posting for RM vs gold. Plus, who will post an item for a 25 cent profit? You are likely looking at a realistic floor of $1.75-$2.00 for items. That leaves a ton on the gold AH.

I am guessing the bulk of the items for sale will be in the $3-5 range, with some ultra sought after items going for double digits (or higher).
