After about a month of collecting runes from armor drops and taking up most of my space, its safe to say I was beginning to become very frustrated. The runes at traders were worth 25g, the same as if I wanted to sell to a merchant. I could spam for hours "WTS minor runes!" and even tried a free give away and no one wanted them. Well today I found a mesmer rune which I never had found before and out of bordom decided to see how much that minor rune was worth. 300+g and I could hardly believe it. So naturally I sold it to the rune trader. Next I brough over all my horded runes and sold them all to from 175g a piece to 890g a piece for minor fire runes. Needless to say all my runes totalled out to just over 6k in profit. Not sure if this is a market flux or due to yesterday's update but THANKS!!!!
Now I just wish that yesterday I had not sold a few runes for 25g a piece to the trader, they probably would have been worth more today...

Hope this trend continues.
