The best one that I ran into was when, to match current AH item listings, I sold a vendor purchased item (bought for 30 silver) for a buyout bid of 10 gold. A markup of over 3000%. And this was less than two weeks ago, so it was not a case of the bid pricing being misread. I do not normally expect to do something like this, but still there are many items that can easily be sold for far more than their cost.
