Question about bound items/trading

DearLady

So, recently I got a purple Worm Arcane ring. Looked up merchant prices and went wow I want to sell that (already have a few anyway). I was so stoked so list it, but it wouldn't let me list it in my trading guild. I assumed it was because it was still tradable within the group I was in...? So I figured, alright, I'll wait the 2 hours and sell it tomorrow. Now I go into my account and it's bound to me. I never touched, put it on, double clicked it etc. Just googled if people were willing to buy such a ring and that was it. I'm kinda peeved 'cause I don't need another of the ring and I was looking forward to selling it. I keep googling but I can't find an exact answer so I figured it would be easier to ask here. So, when something is tradable like that from a dungeon drop does it automatically become bound after? Are we not allowed to list/sell those items if it's tradable within the group? So confusing.

Thanks to anyone who can clear this up for me!

Worm used to drop in MoL and was BoE. With update 12 it was moved to drop in VoM and now any gear that drops in a trial or 4 man dungeon is BoP and cannot be sold or traded to anyone other than those in your group when you got it (for 2 hours).

Any pieces obtained prior to this change are still BoE and can be sold via a guild trader.

That's what it was then because I could trade it with my group but I didn't realize after it would turn to BoP (got it in VoM). I thought if I didn't wear it it would be sell able. Oh well. Thank you for answering.
