I found out about this when I spotted a player trying to sell the Ring of Bitter Shadows in chat. I asked them where they got it, since I remembered that it was jewelcrafted, and they sent me to a vendor named Jase Farlan up at Light's Hope Chapel, who sells it for a pretty decent price, in my opinion. It looks like a few other jewelcrafting items are currently available from vendors. This includes some of the figurines -- at least Figurine - Black Pearl Panther and Figurine - Truesilver Crab. The question in my mind is whether these items will remain available post-expansion. My bet would be that they'll vanish, and this will just have been a fun little jewelcrafting preview. As far as I know, no significant crafted items are currently available from vendors, but maybe that's set to change.
Additionally, new and more powerful water, food, arrows, and bullets can be bought from an orc vendor named Galgrom deep in the Caverns of Time in Tanaris. The arrows and bullets are also available from general goods vendors throughout Azeroth, and seem to be a much better deal than the water, which as far as I can tell is exclusive to Galgrom. At over 10s for one drink, I probably won't be buying the water for general use, at least not until after I get my epic mount; the ammo costs 10s for a whole stack.
Have you all spotted any other BC items that have snuck in with the patch? And those of you who have tried the Filtered Draenic Water, how would you rate it? Does it make financial sense for someone with a mana pool around 6k?

The black pearl panther in swamp of sorrows has been noted as a bug - the vendor is supposed to sell just the pattern for it. I guess the same is true of the other two jewelcrafting items. Buy them quick, I believe they are due to be corrected next patch.

I bought 2 stacks of the new water for my Paladin and i certainly rate it very highly for when you need to get that mana bar as full as possible as quickly as possible without burning a potion cooldown. Examples: When you just capped a node in Arathi Basin/Alterac Valley and you're OOM and you need that mana ASAP. In other instances i'll just settle with Morning Glory Dew or better yet if i'm lucky enough to have some Conjured Crystal which is almost never.
I rate the water very highly, but at the moment use it sparingly. Lower level water, unless in a hurry, will still suffice.

You can get some jewels in the hall of legends, too. That's like the same thing, right? Costs you honor.

Looks to be an AddOn of some sort. Notice the "Global:" tooltip too.

Yeah, I neglected to turn off my other mods for this screenshot.
The trash can is from GarbageFu, and the "Vendor" and "Global" lines are from WoWEcon.
