whatever you do, there is risk. You need to be able to absorb, at a guess, 50 crafts worth of 6 property gloves to make profit both in actual craft cost in gold and material cost be it from the AH or gathered yourself. Sure you can get REAL lucky and craft 3 pairs of gloves with stats that could sell for 5 mill+ in your first 10 crafts, but then due to RNG you may not see a good pair for another 100 crafts, however unlikely that may be.
Sadly I would say the boat has left without you in this market as it's nearly impossible to recover costs on sub-par crafts as there are hundreds/thousands of 'failed' crafts on the AH just sitting there collecting dust for a paltry sum. Same goes for alot of the other 6 property crafts. You MAY get more luck making 5 property gloves which are cheaper to make and thus easier to 'absorb' the construction and failure costs when factoring in the cost of the plan itself also (5 property is under 1 mill, 6 property is over 27 mill last i checked on US).
If you like to gamble go nuts, just don't expect to be able to move your sub-par crafts, just salvage them and move on, it saves you an AH slot for something that will sell.
Also I have had success in making great 5 prop gloves that have sold for 5-10 mill each, I've also made utter crapfor 30 crafts in a row until I got something worth 500k. It just boils down to this:
Do you want to take the risk? Do you like to gamble? Can you afford the gamble and still get teh gear you need if you fail, as you probably will with crappy crafts?
I have a friend with the pattern and got him to make me 60 gloves. I sold one pair for 12 million 3 for 5 million and bunch for 1 to 3 million. It could be worth it if you get really lucky, but if your luck is similar to mine it will take you a very long time to make it profitable. It is always good to acquire patterns though provided you have enough of a bankroll to make the initial cost not crippling to your income.
I've been farming quite a bit and have some funds that i can spend.
Is it worth to buy the plans for the 6+ property gloves (currently around 24 million gold) and to craft them to make money in the long term?
I'm not sure because 24 million is a lot of gold, do you think it's worth it?

Just my 2 cents, take it how you will.
