Uses for gold when levelling a team

[Apatheist]

The primary use I can think of would be purchasing BoE's (depending on which classes you chose.) Some low-mid level BoE's that are BiS well into raiding. Being able to afford and equip them at their minimum required level would be a pretty huge advantage. Freezing band, wardens staff, edgemasters, cloudkeeper legs, robes of winter night/archmage are just a few I can think of.

Also, being able afford your 40/60 mounts on all of your characters is obviously a nice boost to efficiency.

Can you think of any breakpoints where it becomes worthwhile to drop gold on non-endgame BoEs? One obvious one I can think of for casters is 13 for the greater magic wand, but I'm sure there are other points where it makes sense to just buy gear to give a big improvement.
