How to make gold at level 20 to 30

• Vendors sell it for 1g 73s 87c and buy it back for 34s 77c. That is the ceiling for an auction price while vendors stock it.
• Crafted by Leatherworking at skill 130; the recipe comes from a trainer. Reagents below.
• It binds when equipped: tradeable until someone wears it, so each one sells once.
• Disenchants into Vision Dust, Lesser Mystic Essence, Small Glowing Shard, worth about 1g 1s 28c on Normal Alliance today. Odds below.
