How Tonotrtransmogrification and void storage are not related to one another.you must actually possess the item whose appearance you want to useitems used for transmogrification will be made soulbound, untradeable, and non-refundable by finalizing the process.Restrictions

You must meet all requirements to normally equip an item before you can use its appearance for xmog. This includes level, class, reputation, and profession skill requirements.

Armor types must match. Plate armor can only take on the appearance of another piece of plate armor, mail armor can only take on the appearance of other mail armor, and so forth. This is to maintain a degree of visual distinction among classes.

Legendary items are not permitted to be mogged to or from. This is to maintain the uniqueness of these rare items.

Only items with stats beyond weapon damage, armor, and proc/on use effects are eligible for transmogrification.

Certain items are excluded from xmog on the basis of being inappropriately silly. This is to maintain a degree of dignity in the aesthetic of the game. These items are not marked in any way, but you will receive an error message when attempting to mog them.

Heirlooms may have their appearances changed through xmog, but cannot be used for their appearances, and will lose their mogged appearances when sent through the mail.

Fixed a bug which caused heirlooms not to lose their xmog when sent through the mail.

Restriction: Weapons may be mogged with similar weapons. The compatible types are: (1h sword, axe, mace), (2h sword, axe, mace), (polearm, staff), and (bow, gun, crossbow). Daggers, fists, wands, shields, and off-hands can only be mogged with items of the same type, and you still must be able to equip both weapons normally.

Restriction: Level 60 Warlord and Marshal's PvP gear is ineligible for mogging in order to recognize the Vanilla PvP ranking system. Players with rank 7 or higher from Vanilla or rated battlegrounds may purchase eligible replicas from vendors in Area 52, Netherstorm.

Restriction: One-handed weapons cannot take on the appearance of off-hand restricted items. This is because some off-hand weapons have models that are designed specifically for one hand or the other. However, off-hand weapons are allowed to use the appearances of one-handed weapons. Many Main Hand weapons have been converted to one-handed weapons in an undocumented change.*
