Tailoring can be rather expensive to level. Especially if you make 10 of an item and flood the market all at one time to drop them to make some gold back.

Below is a general guide on how to level it. The results on how much you spend (or even gain) leveling will depend on your server prices. The trick is to pay attention more to the process on what I select than the actual item it’s self.

You can re list the item till it sells with no cost to you if it doesn’t and many craftables have a steep listing fee, which cuts into recouping your gold from leveling.
