Stick to level 45 things (or near it) because it's cheaper BUT you would do well to have a weaver/Leatherworker to can easily HQ those things in order for that to be viable (I've bought on the auction house before, but even the level 45 stuff can eat into your profits if you only end up with 10 Craftsman Cunning III's [IT's HAPPENED].)
Yup, and nowdays you can buy really cheap DoW/DoM equipment as well, since combat materia sells well because of novus. Det IV's sell for over 200k most of the time.
