Most important part – How to Sell Shirts on the AH
Quantity For a shirt crafted with Tailoring, it’s acceptable to post more than one at a time. For those bought from vendors, just put one up.
Prices For a tailored shirt, its ok to undercut your competitors, as long as you still make a profit, not a loss.
For shirts bought from vendors, your aim is to get as much as possible. Check the Undermine Journal and WoWuction prices (if you have Trade Skill Master addon, these prices might be imported as a mouseover tooltip), and aim for at least the realm market price. In an optimistic mood, I might try and sell for 150-200% of the average between realm price and global price.
Time: 12 hours preferably, 48 hours if you must.
