I just want to know what made you money in the past. it doesnt have to be high level stuff, but stuff that you've made while at the appropriate level and have made some gold from it. or silver, or copper. and please do not tell me that selling the mats would make more gold than making the products. i know this. but for those who need to level up tailoring, this is a good resource as to what to make while they level their tailoring to recoup the losses.
for those who powerlevel tailoring, i dont think this thread pertains to you that much, unless you've thought out of what to make, disenchant the ones with the best return, and made money that way. so if you level'd tailoring that way, please tell us what you made and what you disenchated for best profitability.
as for me, here are some things i've made that actually sold well while i leveled my tailoring:
1. all types of bags. yes, even the linen bags. everyone needs bags.
a further note on bags, i've only made up to mageweave bags, and i find that mageweave bags are the lease profitable of all the bags. silk bags have given me the highest profit margin... at about 25 silvers, on avarage, if we factor in the cost of the mats. remember i've only gone up to mageweave!
2. white bandit mask. this requires very little mageweave, but gives a nice bonus in Int. I can usually sell this for the cost of the mats. the pattern might be hard to get, as i've seen some in my server being sold for 10 gold. if you can buy it cheap, that would rock. i've walked around with my white bandit mask and have been asked by several people if its a scarf. i would then gather that they would also buy it for the look.
3. enchanted mageweave pouch. this is an enchanting bag that requires vision dust, iirc. i've stated this in another thread but i'll repeat it here. sometimes you might be able to make more than the cost of the materials. if i buy all the mats myself, i usually make about 1 gold a bag on my server.
4. shirts. surprisingly, many people buy shirts. i remember selling blue linen shirts for 75 silvers and people would buy it. of course, it was slow going, and i can average about 5 shirts a week, but that's ok with me. i level my tailoring, make 10 shirts, then sell it two at a time in the AH. people buy them. other shirts sell too. i've made red shirts, orange shirts, the swashbuckler shirts, etc., and those have sold well too.
5. what surprised me most is that you can sell bolts of cloth. i make bolts to level up my skill, but when it grays and i cant make bolts for the next level cloths, i sometimes buy bolts. if you've made bolts to level up and no longer need them, sell it back as bolts. they'll sell to tailors and other professions. honestly i dont see why we'll ever have to sell bolts unless we made a calculation error and made too many bolts. instead of making another bag to use up the bolts, just sell the bolt. its better that way.
so tailors.... please add to this list so other tailors can make "useful" things. i hate to make something and have to vendor it because no one wants to buy it. thanks a bunch and good luck!|||DE the greens you dont need and sell the enchanting mats..
If your a high level tailor, bolt of imbued netherweave can make you some decent money, if you dont need it for spellcloth/shadowcloth etc..|||Also, don't forget Robes of Arcana. Not really a levelling recipie, but sells rather well due to being needed for the warlock quest for the Enchanted Gold Bloodrobe.
Seems that most tailors doesn't have it, and if you can get the spider silks for a decent price or have a few laying around you can make a pretty buck from selling these. Usually sold around 2 per day for 7-8g each on my last tailor.|||Except for the Arcana Robes (you have to farm the the recipe first, I got mine from Duskwood) and perhaps some other recipes I don't think tailoring (or crafting professions in general) are really making any money like skinning/herb/mining.|||Quote:

Its the 20-slot enchanting bag. i dont really care about how much profit i make, as long as i break even thats fine. i dont want to take a loss though.|||Netherweave bags, i sell 10-15 a day everyday since I obtained the skill to make them.|||Runecloth belt might make money.
