Level up jewel crafting yourself then. If you think a lvl 200+ crafter really has need for dapper you are so wrong. High prices guarantee that the amount of bothersome tells is kept to a minimum.
My personal view on people moaning about high prices is that you don't deserve to wear them in the first place.
I think you lost your marbles and not only the plot. Just because you want it easy you expect people to sell their wares cheap? LOL

I harvested nicely up to lvl 250 with my Q200 jewels. Just because you get 1 more mat with higher jewels doesn't justify the need for them does it?

Zorai or Fyros for HP ? I would say Fyros, but can live with every definition as long as crafters stick to it.
I have held a convention with myself and decided that Fyros for hp is most logical.

Yesh, my strong preference (due to color coding, but also 'cause I'm a desert digger) is to make hp stuff in Fyros patterns. When somone trades me jungle mats for jewels, tho, there may be some Zorai HP stuff on market from the decent fails, or from left over mats. So, if you're buying my stuff you can be sure that:- Fyros or Zorai patterns: HP bonuses.
- Tryker: Focus
- Matis: Sap

I like color coding sets but there there is one problem, I am a forest digger and make more HP sets then anything else. So you get Matis HP sets

Well, you could make them in Fyros patterns with fine forest mats, and sacrifice a bit off the durability (which, of course, is how I typically make my matis & tryker patterned jewels). But ultimately it's your decision how you produce them, what patterns you use, and the price you set. Just because I use a particular color scheme for my wares, doesn't mean anybody else has to. I believe there should be considerable tolerance in the marketplace for variation from the norm.

Hehe and I'm using Tryker for HP, Matis for Focus and Fryos for Sap. Well I guess since I dig PR it doesn't really matter to me.
