Where does it come from and how hard is it to get?
Soul-Trader Beacon comes from the World of Warcraft TCG (trading card game)
TCG Expansion: Hunt for Illidan (Press Release)
Card: Ethereal Plunderer
Rarity: 1/363 booster packs (speculative)
Distribution: Booster boxes contain 24 boosters and cost approx $65 USD (inc. shipping), therefore the average cost of obtaining this particular loot is $983.00

How much would I expect to pay for one off eBay or similar?
According to http://www.wowtcgloot.com/soultrader_beacon.htm (most information sourced from there), the expansion won't be released until the 1st of July 2008. Upperdeck Entertainment the makers of the TCG have specified that all three loot cards (The Footpath of Illidan, Disco Inferno!, Ethereal Plunderer) are as common as those in the last set, so apart from the initial rush during release the price should for this item should average around less than $280USD.

Facts:

Summons a full-size Consortium member as a Non-Combat pet.
When summoned emotes "I have arrived. Shall we set to work, then?".
Pet follows and absorbs souls from slain mobs via killing blow in return for Ethereal Credit.
To earn credit mobs / players must be capable of giving experience / honor, i.e. green or harder, and character must have the killing blow.
The pet also acts as a vendor and the following items can be bought with Ethereal Credit:
The vendor purchasable Soul-Trader clothing set almost matches those worn by Consortium members.
Useable at any level and therefore available for twinks.

How do the Loot cards work?
Loot cards are special rare versions of WoW TCG cards found in booster packs, starter decks, and raid decks that have a revealable unique code. Once this protective layer concealing the code is scratched away, a 25 digit promotion code is revealed that can be entered into the Blizzard offical promotions page. These codes work for both US and EU servers.

I have the 25 digit loot code, now what?
All accounts from every region in the world use http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/misc/promotion.html to redeem any and all special loot. This webpage allows you to enter the 25 digit promotion code and also select the region and realm for the character that will receive the loot item.

Upon succcessfuly submitting the above information, you will be presented with an in-game code. Write this code down or print it out; you will need it to retrieve your item. Log into the game with the character that is to receive the item and travel to Booty Bay in Stranglethorn Vale. There, you will need to find a goblin by the name of Landro Longshot. He is located on the lower parts of Booty Bay on the docks, and should be easily recognised due to the fact that he has a distinctive purple shirt and two body guards next to him.

When you find Landro, he will first ask if you are here for a promotion, and then ask you which TCG expansion your item comes from (or Points Redemption); check your loot card if you are not sure which item that is. Ensure you have got bag space to hold the item!

Just trying this chap out on the test server and I've had an idea. I ran (read: corpse hopped) a fresh toon from Northshire to Booty Bay and aquired the companion. I then hearthed back to Northshire and ran up through stowmwind to the deeprun tram. Down the Ironforge end I was able to collect a couple of hundred credits in just a few minutes killing the lvl 1 deeprun rats (as they're less than 9 lvls lower than me and respawn faster than you can kill them!) Now I know most of the items are BoP but a couple, namely the booze and the throwable essense sphere aren't and therefore could be traded (or sold?) to another character. The booze has what seems to be a 50% chance to turn you into an ugly mutant thingy for about 10 seconds and the sphere is pretty cool as it flies quite slowly towards your target and can easily be run away from. I'd love to see 20 people simultaneously throw a spere at one character as he/she runs around Ironforge avoiding them! Hehe. Anyways if anyone wants to use/waste their loot code on a lvl 1 character and farm rats, go for it... Just some food for thought! Enjoy!

I know you can buy nifty things from him, but can you sell to him?

If so, then that'd make him so much more worthwhile to keep around if you're farming for something and run out of bag space.

Still, he wouldn't be able to repair.

This is just an idea I think would be cool, but I have not seen this item in game yet and do not know if you can even sell. If anyone could tell me, I'd appreciate it quite a bit. :) Thank you!

it would be pointless to sell any of the none bop items because of the fact that it is a conjured items and will disappear after 15 minutes of being logged out. thats just like telling a mage that he or she should go and sell water or food all day when it only takes mana to get the item. i personally would just find a guild member that has it on a raid and just ask for some of the liqueur when waiting for buffs or after a wipe.

it would be interesting however to see how long you could keep one from disappearing from constantly passing the item from guild member to guild member. obviously keeping it from the hands of people that would rather keep it for the look what i got factor.

This ludicrously overpriced, overly-rare non-combat pet yeilds Ethereal Credits when you kill an enemy. These credits can be used to purchase items from the pet itself. Would love to have this pet but... Idioticly overpriced... It's sad what people will pay for a piece of cardboard...
