The title is pretty obvious, but what are some good BoE blues/epics for a disc priest to buy at lvl 80?
Preferably relatively cheap, but if some pieces are totally awesome and thus more expensive I have no problem buying them.

PvP is still my primary focus on my priest, but I want to be able to leach some gear euh.. do some Naxx10/25 and ulduar10 raids as soon as I can.

Grab the Frostsavage set if you haven't already. It's starter/blue PVP gear with only a level 78 requirement, and it helps a bit until you get your honor gear.

The crafted purple/blue tailoring pieces are all BOE. For healing I am going with the Moonshroud gloves and robe (beware: it's fugly), the Aurora Slippers, Deep Frozen Cord, and Hat of Wintry Doom (if for no other reason than the cool name).

When I did this with my last priest I had Naxx-ready stats as soon as I hit 80 (this was back when Naxx was all there was), with quest rewards and a couple of rep items mixed in. I was Holy though; you might not need as much spirit and may want to look at the Spellweave robe and gloves for haste instead.

Edit: oh, and Titansteel Guardian if you haven't got anything better by then (some of the rep maces are better, IMO). It's boring and sucky, but it's a decent starter piece. I'm about to get my third one. :(

Edit again: I recommend picking up the Prison Manifest too. It drops off trash in heroic Violet Hold and there's usually a bunch at the AH. Good offhands are hard to come by and this one is pretty nice for a blue.

Solid rundown from Teacake, but for PVP I'd say get the Iron-Bound Tome rather than the Prison Manifest as your offhand. The extra armor is really good for a cloth wearer, and it has plenty of stamina and spellpower.

That is nice, I agree, although I'm not sure I'd give up 42 INT for it. My current priest is leveling inscription so I'll likely start out with Faces of Doom instead, or else maybe use the Iron-Bound and then drop it once my resil is in a respectable place.
