I'm not buying this idea either. There are a lot of reasons for both sides but in my opinion this is a game, not a really economy. When I wanted to buy a buzzard tuck for my friend who is leveling redmage there weren't any on the AH for some time now. So me and him used our seals to do the BCNM a few times and he got the drop. A few things happened. We worked together not using NPCs or trusts, we actually worked as a team, we used our seals, and we played the GAME!!! What an amazing concept. If the AH doesn't have it play the game, if it's too rare or you can't obtain it yourself keep playing the game and move on.
