I think you need to get to lvl 5 or something to be able to start disenchanting. I did that for a long time, buying cheap lvl 10-20 weapons and disenchanting, then selling the essences back. But then the market got fairly saturated, so it may not be profitable anymore. This was also over a year ago (I haven't played for a long time).

They effectively ended the days of an AH disenchanting alt because the level of the item you can DE is tied to your enchanting level. This really hosed me as I made a ton of money through disechanting. Buy low sell high is still good for lots of money. Its just like any other market really. Also once you get a good base of funding you can manipulate prices by buying mass produced items and then relisting at an inflated price. Takes a fair amount of gold and dedication to do this but its possible.
