Farmable high value battle pets?

Hello everybody.

First of all I'm completely out of touch with the game and current events.

I just installed WoW on my steam deck after not playing for a long time. Occasionally I get the itch to log on my level 20 Hunter and farm battle pets which can be sold down the line should I ever subscribe again.

Now in the past I used to farm those golden eye pets from the maw which sold for about 175k but that doesn't seem to be accessable anymore. I tried the Timeless Isles crabs but they seem to be too high level even with Pandaria timeline.

Anybody got a good tip or experience? Thanks in advance.

Edit: Alternatively toys maybe?
 
I could still loot those timeless crabs last time I checked. Did you do it on your 20? Their loot table is near the end of our level range.

People around here have also been talking about ways to get to the maw on a dedicated character, might be worth looking into.

The crabs have a big health pool which is doable but annoying and you have to kill a lot of crabs to spawn the elite which I assume will have way more health and might be impossible to kill.
 
is your account F2P? Vet? attached F2P?

i used to do pets to make gold, farm realm AHs, to sell at other AHs. while unsubbed i would farm pets, DMF pets. etc. last summer on the last weeks of MOP remix into the TWW prepatch. i was surprized that still rare pets pets have not really increased or scaled to the gold hyper inflation.

sure pets can sell high when the expac is current or shortly into the next. even pets that sold for like 3K gold, three expacs later you some as low as 5g

blizz can crap on pets any instant
- twitch drops
- trading post
- BMAH
- re-releasing pets like the MC 10th annv pet was 200-300K+ gold, after the 20th annv for 10 TW tokens pets dropped hard 15-20K
- store

players do weird things too like buy vendor pets for 450G and sell them for 150G or less, go to BMAH put 2000G bid on a pet that is sold by a vendor for silver

i used to mass farm the DMF quests for tickets to buy those pets. when they sold for 2000-4000g it was noticeable, imo...time vs gold inflation made it no longer worth it. as off right now 12500 gold = $1 USD. i laugh when i see in trade craft requests tipping 3000g

i find mechagon chest farming is a quick loop per player, and stock pile the items for future vending. if you have that part of BFA unlocked
