I've never understood why onions weren't sold by npcs (maybe because of the FF franchise's strange fondness for onion items), but they made me some easy gil back in the early days of the game, when I would farm goblin thugs in outer horu towers.
I know full well how/where they are available, but onions are up to 200k-300k on Asura due to the Escutcheon.. I'm not making a cooking one, but I feel slightly guilty to be selling my garden spoils for that much. XD My point was that those two are exceedingly low-level items that still have uses/demand but no NPC source. I'm sure there are tons of things like this that would also qualify.
