I am trying to plot out my emblem purchases so I don't spend stupidly. Looking through all the Emblem of Conquest purchasable items, and cross referencing with all the TOC and H TOC drops, it appears to me there are only 3 items really worth purchasing.
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45848
(a really big upgrade)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45840
(a significant upgrade)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45831
(a moderate upgrade)
Does that seem correct?

Depending on how fast you're acquiring them, and how much you'll be raiding, you might instead consider using those EoC to buy runed orbs. An orb costs 18 emblems, so it takes 108 emblems to buy enough runed orbs to make a
belt
or
boots
from an Ulduar tailor. They're quite expensive (they take a lot of cloth too) but you might not replace them until Icecrown. I'm still wearing mine until I can get the 245 upgrades from ToGC10.
If that's out of reach, I agree about buying the T8 helm first.

You can also purchase two tier 8.5 pieces, specifically the
helm
and the
chest piece
. I'd say go for the helm first.
edit: they cost 58 emblems each.
If I get enough EoC, I will consider that. My initial thought was to hold off and get those 2 pieces from EoT

Buy the shoulders and the gloves from T9, then buy the T8 chest and headpiece. Problem solved.

Also, never underestimate the drop potential from VoA runs. If you do that every week, both 10 and 25, you should see some form of Priest gear drop, whether it be Tier 7 8 or 9. I know that Koralon drops the gloves and pants, so maybe wait a bit and buy those Tier 9 pieces last, in case you get lucky and get one from him.
As for the EoCs; grab the Frozen Tear necklace (my Evokers Charm has lasted months now on my mage) first. If you have a good tailor in your guild or know one, then defiantly just buy the runed orbs and have them make you some sweet iLevel 226 gear. If not, then buy stuff like this: Tier 8 Head/Chest. Tier 9 Shoulders Hands Legs. Eventually pick up the Tier 9 Head/Chest.
Like I said though, the Tier 9 pieces are AMAZING, and you have a decent chance of getting some legs off of Koralon, so do that before you spend the emblems on the Conjurer legs. Same with the gloves.

Good advice all.

Also, don't forget that soon, emblems of conquest will no longer be dropped in 3.3. Emblems of Triumph will drop and you can pretty much deck out in T9 in a week and a half easily. All the pieces that you can purchase are far cheaper!
