Try a consumable market today. Flasks, potions, and/or various foods that provide buffs. Buy a few cheap and repost. Raiders are your primary buyers for these items, so hold off on selling them until just before raid times. On my server most players raid at 7:00pm server and on, so I usually post my flasks at around 6:45. Since the people buying your goods will be purchasing within a 15-30 minute window before raids start you will want to be the best priced option at that moment.
Since flasks last for one hour most raiders are going to buy 2-4 at a time so post in stacks of 1, 2 or 4.
For foods and potions, attempt to buy these on the weekend when farmers are posting meats and mats at their cheapest and then resell during weeknights. Foods that are already encompassed in a raid wide feast are not valuable. Instead, focus on other stats like hit, strength, and spell penetration.

What I'm hoping to do is have a great list for a starting auctioneer. Between this and the 22 steps to auctioneering new visitors should be on the right track in no time.
