Some of the posters were asking whether skinning is a worthy money-maker or not. First of all, we should all remember that primary professions are divided into gathering and "manufacturing" profissions. Skinning, herbalism and mining are gathering professions. As a gloden rule, gathering yields money more than manufacturing. Why? Let's think about it. When gathering items and offering them in the auction house, other higher lvl players will most likely be the most potential customers. That's because they don't have the time nor the patience to go gather their ingridents themselves. But hey, they have LOTS of money =D! I have a priset lvl 47 on Daggerspine (aka Laggerspine) and my skinning skill is 281 atm. It is my bread :)! I can totally support myself through skinning only.One time I was able to earn alot of money (around 17 Gold) by cornering the AH. My second profession is tailoring and it is a good example of a medium (or even low) money-making profession. It is not as good as skinning in making gold since it requires lots of cloth that I could have selled in AH and other ingredints. So, for all who r wondering whether skinning is a good money-maker.... Yes it is !! If it was up to me, I would go for 2 gathering professions. Most probably skinning and mining.
