September's Trading Post celebrates BlizzCon as old monthly rewards return

September brings two Leafmimic mounts, the Gummi pet, and a BlizzCon Outlet where past monthly rewards return for Trader’s Tender.

September's biggest Trading Post feature is not a single new mount but the BlizzCon 2026 Outlet. Special vendors in Dornogal and Silvermoon City bring back older mounts, pets, toys, armor, and weapon appearances. For the first time, missed monthly bonus rewards can also be bought with Trader's Tender.

Completing the Traveler's Log awards the Crested Ember Leafmimic mount. The regular stock includes the Crested Aqua and Crested Verdant Leafmimics for 500 Tender each, the Cinder-Plumed Highland Gryphon for 650, and the Ornery Breezestrider for 325. Gummi, previously a promotional pet, reaches the Trading Post for the first time at 250 Tender.

Check the Outlet before spending

The Outlet makes September's purchase order unusually important. Its returning catalogue includes previous monthly bonuses alongside older collectibles, and Blizzard says discounted items will be available. Tender remains limited, so inspect both vendors before committing to the regular monthly stock. The freeze slot can preserve one item if September's budget does not cover everything.

The monthly Tender budget

An eligible active account receives 500 Tender from the Collector's Cache and can earn up to another 500 through the Traveler's Log. The Ember Leafmimic costs no Tender once the activity bar is filled. The Trading Post is a Retail WoW feature and is not available in Classic.

September is therefore both a fresh collection month and a catch-up opportunity. Players targeting an older Outlet reward should avoid emptying their Tender balance before the new selection opens.
