Hmm, I read through the release notes and completely missed this part about the Auction House:

Actually, I went through the release notes again and did a search for 'uction' (so I didn't have to worry about capitalization on the word 'auction') and didn't run across anything for the Auction House that mentioned time delays. So, I guess this is one of those largely noticable yet completely unwritten about changes that didn't make the release notes.

From what I can tell, the delay is 2? 3? hours, but I haven't been online when I got one of the notices and my timezone is a little different than the game's as well.

The most annoying thing about this, I guess, is the fact that if you're out of cash and want to generate some quick stuff by doing some quick farming of stuff you know will sell well and in a flash, the sales may go through, but you have to wait a couple of hours to pick up the proceeds. Pretty minor, I guess, if one thinks ahead and doesn't let themselves run right out of cash! ;)

PS: I sold a stack of 17 [Scorpid Scale] there - someone actually paid a full gold each for those things they're so much of a pain to farm in Tanaris. I think initially I bought 3 full stacks of those things for 15g in order to level my rogue's Leatherworking, so to be able to toss back a partial stack at more than I paid for it all works for me!
