With the release of patch 6.0.2 we’ll be sending the vendors who sell Heirlooms for Justice on a vacation. As you’re probably aware, both Valor and Justice are being removed as currencies from the game in 6.0.2, and as we started work on converting Heirlooms to be purchased in other ways we found that we were setting them up for a rollercoaster effect in their valuation. See, we’re also working on a larger Heirloom system for a future patch, and we didn’t want to rush into any pricing scheme that could temporarily devalue the heirlooms, or back us into a corner for how we can give them out in the future. Rather than introduce buyer’s remorse or hand-wringing decisions about when to buy, we’re going to give the Justice Heirloom vendors some time off while we work on improving the system as a whole (and while we all explore Draenor).

One thing to take note of is that this change only affects vendors that sold Heirlooms for Justice. PvE Heirlooms will still remain available at the Darkmoon Faire and the Trial of the Crusader, and PvP Heirlooms will still be able to be purchased for Honor.
