I can't believe I came back to the site after hours to see this topic still going...
Is it that hard to understand, Crafters have the right to an item which they can then craft their items.. the OP of this thread must be new to the game and not remember how things were at the start of a "Previous Expansion"
Very simple basics, if your in a Guild the price of the orb should be irrelevant and you should help your fellow Guild Mates out, if your attempting to get something outside of what your Guild offers, you deal with it and accept the asking price of the Orbs.
I am an Eng, got my own Orbs for my own Bow / Helm after farming for a few days I got the mats together and found a BS with 3 Chaos Orbs to craft my Poleaxe, I never once saw any difficulty in acquiring the item, in fact I had about 10 Blacksmiths respond with various prices for said Orbs.
What is the issue really, are you to broke to handle the prices? In which case you just get yours crafted a few days later, no need for irrelevant spam on forums with repetitive threads about the same thing.
There is nothing wrong with the system as it stands, either work with your Guild ( Which I'm sure is one of the side goals of Blizzard ) or save your Gold and deal with Trade Chat's pricing system.
There's your answer and your response you fool now pipe down and cry lessOh noes, you didn't answer anything. I actually made this account because this is my first time on the forums. I couldn't care what you thought about me toward the end of this one way or another. There's an issue with the orbs, it's painfully obvious that there is.
