So these people are clearly duping, the orbs alone cost more than this and that price is a clear cut fixed cost.
Will reporting these players for cheating actually do anything or am i wasting my time ?

Reporting them does work but it won't be on the timetable you expect it to be. Blizzard doesn't move fast on such things but they usually straighten out the issue in the end. Just keep reporting them.
You think they are cheating, you don’t know that they are.
What if someone traded it to them for something?
What if someone gave it to them?
Yes most likely they got it from a gold seller so they can get some in game gold, how do you prove that to be the case, speculating is a bad thing when it leads to accusing someone of cheating.
Youre being a minor annoyance to these people . Thats it . Duping has been around for ages . The chars you report are accounts they expect to get banned . They deposit the gold in a guild bank and bliz never touches "communal property" so theyre not loosing gold even. Personally ? if you cant beat them join them . Get a bulk deal for 20 tigers for retarded low price , keep them in a guild bank for a while and sell them off slowly.
Don't forget there are people that transfer large amount of gold this way, with boe mounts.
PM me weird stuff :3
I report every person trying to sell an item I think is duped. I hope someday it will accomplish something.
Ask them to increase the price by the AH cut and put it on the AH. Usually these are items that can't be posted on the auction house or otherwise used. The only thing they can be used for is to sell for a quick 28k gold and screw over the person who bought it.
I've been told by a person selling a mount for this kind of pricing that gold sellers buy these mounts for cash then sell cheaply to get gold.
Using current google prices, $1/1k or $7/10k, they buy the mount from someone for $20 and get $30 worth of gold easily.
It's also easier to transfer mounts than large amounts of gold.
you havent being paying attention have you?
its easy to get a stack of the gems if you have an alchmist 3 living steel dependonmg on the price can cost about 2k as for the orb i can go buy 1 off the vender for 18k if i wanted ( thats with the guild perk) all in all id say the mats are near the cost of the vial
bottom line is if i wanted to i could with my server econemy make a mount for 20k (i alredy have the stack o gems) living steel on my server is 500g per and vendor mat with perk is 18k
so i could make the mount for 20k and sell it for 8k profit
edit: i miss read the title now if i multiplied that by 4 that would be 80k.
that being said they must be duping the orb needed.
i dont really see any point in duping the easily obtainabble mats like the gems or living steel.

I feel bad for those people trying to sell their legitimate Onyx Panthers for 64k, especially the server transfers.
From a buyers POV, why buy one for 64k when I can get it for 28k? I know a guy who bought his months ago from a duper and he still has it nor has he gotten a ban or warning.
I'm pretty sure they're just straight duping the Panther itself in it's completed state. It just takes a BOE item, last I checked.
That said... Blizzard hasn't outright said "Duping exists, we try to deal", however last time I bought a duped item, the GM said that he would refund the item's cost I paid, no hassle, because of the 'problems they've been having with scammers'

If Id see it, I would buy it anyway. You cant cheat the mount into the game with some cheatcode like in GTA so someone made it, and you eventually bought it cheap. Its not your problem what happens between, its blizz'
