How to make gold at level 20 to 30

• Vendors sell it for 41s 24c and buy it back for 8s 24c. That is the ceiling for an auction price while vendors stock it.
• Crafted by Tailoring at skill 100; the recipe comes from a trainer. Reagents below.
• It binds when equipped: tradeable until someone wears it, so each one sells once.
• Disenchants into Soul Dust, Greater Astral Essence, Large Glimmering Shard, worth about 26s 31c on Normal Alliance today. Odds below.

• Hands of Darkness · Tailoring 100 · trainer
