Ok so this thread is about which cuts to buy with your tokens, at least which ones to buy first. Obviously the first one should be the prismatic that helps you toon the best, but after that which ones are people buying in order to maximize profits? Personally I bought the Bold Inferno Ruby due to a high demand for dps classes, I'm thinking about the agility one next, followed by the int one.
So basically I would like this thread to be a place for new JC's to be able to come to find out which cuts to purchase to make the most out of their tokens, not necessarily which sells for the most but which ones move fast.

Ya, due to constantly changing economies, and price variations from server to server...this thread is not going to work. Sorry. Besides, if you want to make the most money...just buy the "Chimera's Eye's". They cost one token, and I assure you they sell for more than any cut gem.
I disagree. A thread like this would be a very welcome addition to a confusing world. If the economy changes, the thread changes. There is definitely enough similarity in these things cross-server to make it worthwhile. Good initiative.
My own first cuts: bold inferno ruby, forlorn shadowspirit diamond (would at first sell at 3-4 times the raw mat costs, but not anymore) reckless ember topaz. works pretty well but no big profits yet.

Disagree all you'd like. The name of the thread is "Jewel-crafting Best Sellers". Are you going to tell me that selling 3 x Chimera's Eye is going to bring in less than any cut gem you can think of? Not trying to argue here...but if you're looking to maximize your profits, selling the Chimera's Eye's is the way to go.
It all depends on how you count I guess. On my server I am fortunate to sell the reckless and brilliant cut for around 25-50g profit on a very reguarly basis. In time that will generate much more income than a single chimera eye. Chimera eyes is a one time deal whereas the cuts generate gold overtime.

Sure, getting chimeras for your tokens and selling them provides you with a steady 300-600 gold a day. That's fine if enough for you. But with a handful of recipes you will soon be able to make much more than that with just a little more effort.

As an 85 Protection Warrior I use:
Defender's Demoneye
for Red Slots
Puissant Dream Emerald
for Yellow Slots
Solid Ocean Sapphire
for Blue Slots
when better geared Protection Warriors will lean more towards:
Fractured Amberjewel

on my server you can by ocean sapphires for about 10-20g, and cutting them to sparkling (+40 spirit) sells for ~70-80g, but only about 1-3 of these are selling each day

Personally I buy the gem cuts that I would use for my different toons. And will also buy cuts if guides request a need for the cut.
With the new meta's coming next patch that leaves with only a few cuts that will be used.
There are always cuts that are worthless and aren't used. And aren't worth the tokens. I only have about 3 or 4 more cuts to get and I'll be good. then I'll bank 30-40 tokens. For the epic cuts soon to come in a few monthes. Then I'll buy the raw eyes and sell in the AH.
Honestly the eye's vs. cuts debait is funny. Sure you can make the 300-600gold per right now. But your going to more then likly be the one down the road that will be crying over the 30g per gem that your other Jc's will be charging. So the question to ask yourself is it really worth it now?
