I am glad it seems like an okay idea. I was thinking you could just put up the gil for the item you are looking for, and whenever the item that you are looking for was surrendered onto the AH your money would be sent to the supplier and you would get your item. I was talking with my buddy and he thinks it would be a good idea not only to do this for crafting but hand a supply system in place for all items. You know how the little number pops up next to the item on the AH when it is in stock? Well we could have another number next to that in red to show how many requests there are for that item or something like that.
