Three Must Have Patterns for Tailors

Well, I think it's about time we get back to the main thrust of this blog.......making easy gold. Tailors, this post is for you !

If there is one thing I have made money selling, consistently, it is shirts. Shirts always sell, it's as simple as that. However, there are three shirts that sell better than any others.....and for more money. If you are a tailor, you would be insane not to get these patterns !

1. Rich Purple Silk Shirt ~ This shirt sells for anywhere from 3 gold to 8 gold (or more) depending on the server. You only have to be skill 185 to make it and the mats are a mere 4 silk bolts, one silk thread and a purple dye. Dirt cheap to make and this shirt probably sells for more than any other, simply because it is not made to sell by very many people......and the pattern is pretty rare. That is the bad news. The pattern is a world drop, and really cannot be farmed. It has been known to show up in SM, Uldaman, even Scholo. It also has made appearances in chests in any instance above level 35. My best advice to you is to keep and eye on the auction house and if you see it, buy it.....at any price. I have personally paid $100 gold for this pattern and trust me, it's worth it. You will make your money back 1000 fold, if you sell these shirts regularly.

2. Black Swashbucklers Shirt ~ This shirt sells for 7 gold, on my server......on other, older servers, it sells for about 3 to 4. Still, for a skill level of 200 pattern, and cheap mats (5 silk bolts, thread and black dye) it sells like hotcakes, because most people don't make it consistently to sell, and everyone wants to buy it. The best news is, it's a vendor pattern. It is limited quantity (1) but if you are patient, you can get it for a mere 18 silver. It is sold by a goblin vendor in the Old Port Authority in Booty Bay. He also sells parrots (he is a pirate supplier....arrrrrr !) but don't try to sell the parrots in the AH, they are very common, and don't sell for much.

3. Dark Silk Shirt ~ This shirt sells for about 2 to 3 gold, on the servers I deal on. Not a big price, but it stacks up, if you sell a few every day. The skill level needed is 155, and the mats are super cheap, at 2 silk bolts, 2 dyes, and a fine thread. This shirt sells well, and consistently and it is definitely worth adding to your daily list of items to put in the AH. The pattern is sold by the tailor vendor in Darkshire for the alliance and Tarren Mill for the Horde. I can't remember the cost, but its a pittance compared to what you will make selling it.

So there you have it. Tailors, listen to me and gold will be rained down upon you. :)

See you all soon,
