Trading Post September 2026 Overview

September 2026 is the biggest Trading Post month WoW has ever had. Azeroth is celebrating BlizzCon 2026, the stall is dressed up in a friendship theme, and alongside the regular rotation of 48 new items Blizzard has opened a Trader's Tender mega-sale: the Trading Post Outlet, a special vendor hub in Dornogal and Silvermoon City stocking 308 returning items at 30-75% off, plus all 22 previous monthly bonus rewards, buyable with Tender for the first time. The headline reward stays classic, though: fill the Traveler's Log and the Crested Ember Leafmimic mount is yours.

Here is the math that shapes the whole month. The full catalog (regular stock plus Outlet) runs 378 items and 70,430 Tender, while a normal month pays out at most 1,000. Nobody buys everything, and nobody should try; this guide carries the complete price tables for every section, the exact bonus reward track, and the month's earning math. One freeze slot exists. Use it well.

September 2026 Trading Post Dates

The September rotation is live now and runs the whole month: when the in-game countdown hits zero, October's stock replaces everything on this page. September's theme is friendship, timed to BlizzCon 2026, which runs the weekend of September 12-13. One month, one stock.

The regular stall runs in four cities this month, and the Outlet vendors share the Dornogal and Silvermoon branches, which is where the 330 returning items live, not at the regular stall. Every branch location, with coordinates, is one page away.

Crested Ember Leafmimic: September Bonus Reward

The monthly bonus reward is the Crested Ember Leafmimic, a red-scaled cousin of the two purchasable Leafmimics — per Blizzard's flavor text, this one hides in heated alcoves, which explains the ember coloring. It costs no Tender. Fill the Traveler's Log progress bar and the mount is handed over the moment it does, on top of the Tender the log pays along the way. How the log works is laid out in the Trading Post Overview.

A dedicated evening or two across the month clears the bar comfortably. Fill the log before the rotation and the Ember Leafmimic is effectively a free mount plus 500 Tender; skip it and the Tender goes with it, since log progress does not carry into October.

September 2026 Trading Post Items

The regular stall carries 48 items worth 6,530 Tender in total: four mounts, one pet, 29 armor pieces and 14 weapon appearances, the weapon block all priced flat at 150. New this month: the chameleon-like Leafmimic family arrives in force, and Gummi, a former promotional pet, is sold on the Trading Post for the first time. Full tables below, sorted by price.

September Mounts and Pets

The two Leafmimics at 500 each are the collector plays: Crested Aqua and Crested Verdant share the chameleon model with different scale palettes, and pairing either with the log's Ember variant completes the family trifecta. The Cinder-Plumed Highland Gryphon at 650 is the month's most expensive regular item, the Ornery Breezestrider at 325 the cheapest mount on the stall, and Gummi the baubleworm pet lands at 250 on its Trading Post debut. Blizzard's flavor line for the Verdant explains the family conceit: its scales let it blend into dense vegetation, which is why the model reads as a chameleon. Gummi gets a joke instead of lore, a baubleworm hunted for its rubbery texture and sweet flavors. Both Leafmimics plus the Gummi pet run 1,250, so a fresh account earning its full 1,000 this month still needs savings or a freeze to take all three.

September Armor Transmog

Cosy is the watchword. The armor lineup pairs Aquatic and Brick color variants across dunecloth basics, bandit's highboots, springflower crowns, winter toques, gloomcaps, gunslinger's lids and two ensembles. Off that pattern sit five gemstone friendship bracelets at 50 Tender each, three Classic tabards, and the big ensemble pickup, The Speaker's Ceremonial Collection at 575.

September Weapon Transmog

The weapon block is a draenic retrospective: war axes, war mauls and choppers in Draenite, Talasite and Pyrestone finishes, every one at 150 Tender, plus two Foxton's axes with their own flavor. The flavor text keeps the setting explicit, with the Grand Pyrestone War Axe written as gleaming like the skies over Blade's Edge Mountains. Coverage is narrow by design: four weapon types in all, one-hand axes and maces plus their two-hand counterparts, so a caster gets nothing off this shelf. Browsers who want the full Outland aesthetic can clear the entire weapon section for 2,100.

Trading Post Outlet: 330 Returning Items

The Outlet is the BlizzCon 2026 experiment. Special vendors in Dornogal and Silvermoon City are selling 308 returning items at 30-75% off their original prices, plus, for the first time ever, every previous monthly bonus reward, purchasable with Tender. Outlet vendors ran twice before, in February 2025 and February 2026, with a fraction of this stock. Nothing about the sale is subsidized: your monthly Tender income stays 1,000, so a wall of discounted collectibles meets a fixed wallet.

Two suppliers split the returning stock. Supplier Pezy carries the returning creatures and toys, so every mount, pet and toy in the tables below comes off that shelf. Supplier Filmore sells the old monthly bonus rewards, and those prices are largely undiscounted, since these rewards were never regularly sold outside anniversary events. Everything in the four tables below totals 63,900 Tender: 22 bonus-reward returns, 59 mounts, pets and toys, 109 armor pieces and 140 weapons.

Previous Monthly Bonus Rewards

This is the headline table. Ash'adar, Harbinger of Dawn, Eve's Ghastly Rider, Depthstalker, the Bones of the Bloodhunter ensemble — years of log-fill rewards that used to be earn-once and wait-for-an-anniversary, all now on Filmore's shelf. The community reaction to this single table has been the loudest part of the month.

Returning Mounts, Pets and Toys

Collectors, brace. Tyrael's Charger, Celestial Steed and the Dreadwake at 500 apiece, the Riding Turtle at 600, the Spectral Tiger Cub pet at 200: store and promotion collectibles rubbing shoulders with old stall stock, 31 mounts and 19 pets in one table. Eighteen of those pets sit flat at 200, and the toys run 200-300 except the Mannequin Charm, which at 10 ties for the cheapest line on the page. The two we would grab first: the mail tabards in the armor table below and the Bloodhunter ensemble in the bonus-reward table above.

Returning Armor Transmog

109 pieces spanning every slot and most past themes — buccaneer slops, diver suits, spring Reveler's lavender sets, tropical beachwear, Dark Ranger and Wastewander kits. Sorted by price; the 10-40 Tender bracket is the cheapest wardrobe top-up the Post has offered all year.

Returning Weapon Transmog

The deep end: 140 appearances priced from a 30-Tender staff up to the four 300-Tender arsenals at the top. The Riptide set arrives complete across nine pieces, Plunderlord's radiant line runs five weapon types plus the matching armor, the Stormhammer arsenals come in three metals, and Catastrophe's Edge and Conquest anchor the two-hand shelf. If a weapon style ever left the Post, September is when it came back.

How to Earn Trader's Tender in September

The income side is unchanged: 500 Trader's Tender from the Collector's Cache plus up to 500 from the Traveler's Log, and unspent Tender carries over — which is how veterans are funding big Outlet splurges this month. Every earning rule, the cache and the monthly ceiling included, is detailed in the Trading Post Overview.

BlizzCon 2026 Watch Drops: 200 Free Tender

September adds one extra source outside the game, tied to BlizzCon itself. Link Battle.net to Twitch or YouTube, watch World of Warcraft while drops are live, and the tiers stack: twelve hours of viewing pays out all four rewards. The Twitch window runs September 12, 9:30 AM PDT to September 27, 10:00 AM PDT and counts any eligible World of Warcraft stream, BlizzCon programming or otherwise; that fifteen-day tail is how the 12-hour tier stays reachable off a two-day show. YouTube is far shorter and runs on the official WoW channel: September 12, 9:30 AM PDT to September 13, 7:00 PM PDT. Attending in person? Link your BlizzCon pass to Battle.net by September 18 and you receive everything regardless of watch time, delivered during the week of September 21.

The Grrgle is Housing decor, so placing it needs Midnight; once you have claimed it, extra copies are sold by Dennia Silvertongue in Silvermoon, Tuuran in Stormwind and Gabbi in Orgrimmar near the Trading Post. And drops skip Classic entirely, so the whole track needs a retail subscription or Game Time.
