What does it cost to level Tailoring right now?

2.6kg in reagents at today's EU auction prices, over about 76 crafts. Sell the results and it comes back to 2.6kg.

Why does the route change when I reload?

Because the prices did. The cheapest recipe for a stretch of skill is whichever one's reagents are cheapest at that moment, and that moves through the day.
