wind crystal stack 7k at AH.
and as an example; arrowwood lumber 16 gil at guild but 9k a stack at AH.
this is total bullsh*t.
i just keep farming elementals though it is time-consuming but i cant farm damn lumbers and some guild campers are getting all of them in a very short time and i just dont wanna waste a wind crystals to craft my own lumber. and the worst part is; i need those cheap lumbers to skill up. SE is not helping true players in any way. we need strict limits on thing like this guild vendor.

I can't get away from wind crystals, and they usually go for less than 1k on Diabolos... farm for them off Bees right outside of Bastok. Or go to La Theine and kill the bees there.
Second:
Camp it yourself? lol... I believe the guild's inventory resests every conquest period. Keep a general idea of the periods and buy them within the first 20 game-days of the new cycle.
Third: If you see an issue of serious exploitation you have 2 options.
A. Join in and chash in.
B. Lower the prices.
It isn't very hard to lower the price of things... I've seen it happen to things that don't deserve to be lowered... have some friends, or your LS if you have one, save up a bunch of the crystals, put 3/4 up and have another member by em from you at a lower price and then throw a whole bunch of them on at once.
With crystals, it takes no skill to farm them and I think most of them aren't farmed on purpose. I just simply don't toss them as I farm bigger things and sell the stacks when I go back. Since they are so common and cost the seller nothing and tossing them is actually a bigger waste of time (because of clicking every time it drops), crystal prices can drop easily.
I would not promote trying to lower the price on certain synths or NM drops. You wouldn't be very sucessful since no one would seel them at lower prices because it does take skill to farm those. But guild-camping and crystal selling is hardly worth the gil that some people try to sell them for.
"wind crystal stack 7k at AH"
7k investment to make 36 lumber
+1k other expenses, just a round number for twine and hatchets
"arrowwood lumber ... 9k a stack at AH."
ok, sell 3 stacks of the lumber for 9k each = 27k
so we learned that we can turn 8k worth of crystals and materials into 27k worth of lumber.
Include HQs and you can make 9 lumber with just 1 crystal! 1 crystal to make nearly an entire stack of lumber worth 9k sounds good to me.
Now. The next time I hear someone complain about lumber prices being too high, remember that within a couple days you can be the one supplying that oh-so-high priced lumber if you stop whining about it and just level the craft.

Comparing this aspect to reality is kind of silly.
And I don't mind people buying lumber for crafting, but when they buy the lumber then run to the AH to sell it at docked up prices, that's just wrong. And you KNOW people do that. And they're wasting my time with having to make my own lumber. Simply put, guilds just don't stock enough. And characters should have personal limits, so they can't just buy a ton and sell it at the AH. That's not what the guild is designed for.

So the japanese are 100% pure evil and aren't worth the light of day because a couple of people camp the wood guild... advantage or not a ton of NA people would do it too.
If you judge an entire culture on people based on the fact that they live closer to the servers and can beat you to some arrowwood then it sounds to me like your the dork... I don't tend to flame people but come on... how can you be this ignorant?

so.. I'm always end up with nothing... doh!
right now my woodworking is lv.42
I find it better to buy arrow log from the Vendor than Guild store.
beside @ woodwork lv.21, I think u can make some HQ version of it.. when it's wind day. u know 1 log = 2-4 lumber....
So the moral of this story is: don't camp the guild, camp the elemental that drops the more common crystals for your guild.

q: why does a maple log cost more than maple lumber??
comment:
i know its a pain the way people..and not just noobs...sell craft materials at ah
but they would stop doing it if no one bought it
i keep seeing peopel bazaar's prices get higher and higher....and all i can think is who stupid enough to buy a lump of copper for 100 gil??
when it sometiems cost 9 gil at the guild
ive thought of a lot of solutions...but it seems like even if S-E flooded the market with craft supplies from the guilds
crystals would become more expensive because everyone would need them more
any idea on how to band together and fix the problem?

Why do not you blame Squaresoft for alouding people doing that ?
I sarted woodworking today and went pretty fast at lv10, now I am supposed to craft bullets to get to lv15-16 and I end up racing for a single stack of ash lumbers....which I never get due to lag delay.....
....who's fault is it ?
I don't think I can blame noobs who found this easy way to buy their first armour....I blame S-E for not thinking of something for stopping this to happen.
Arrowwood Lumber is not a toy - It it what a make all your miserable bone and Beetle arrows out of, and if I run short, well..
Thank You

1 - Fame does not affect the price of goods they sell
2 - Price varies by the number they have in stock at when they opened that day. If they haven't sold an item for several game days, they are at the minimum price. If they sold out the day before, they are at the maximum price, which is normally twice the minimum price.
3 - Several of those items, (the weapons and furniture mostly) are not really sold by the shop; they are re-sold when somebody sells that item to the shop.

It makes base materials for leveling up crafting skills so much more of a stress on a crafters wallet.. i have to run to the woodworkers guild at 5:00 so i have a chance to get 1 stack of arrow wood lumber for 7 gil each, i will never get any more than that though.. it costs 3k a stack at the Auction House, and the amount i run through is so massive i would spend literally hundreds of thousands on that alone if i bought it from the auctrion house.
These materials I AM SURE are meant to be purchased by CRAFTERS, seeing as they are sold in the guild itself.
If you dont craft, please PISS OFF and dont take all the materials to sell at the auction house.
Its bad money, this stuff isnt meant for you to sell, its there for you to USE so you dont blow a hole in your million dollar cheque.
