There are rarely any, if any at all, "High demand" Synthing items on the AH that are selling for less than their NPC price.
Items that sell less for their NPC prices are generally either massively over-stocked items (That even with people Buying > NPCing, Wont run out of stock), or Sh*tty items that sell so slow people really dont care what they put them on the AH for as long as it sells. (Why they dont NPC IDK).
Most people check AH price and put it up without bothering to check NPC price.
Either way, Doesn't matter if doing this is "taking out of supply line", This doesn't need some Divine SE intervention, what it needs is people to actually research wtf their selling and use their brains. If people want others to stop buying from AH and NPCing, Sell it for more than the NPC will buy it for.
Problem solved.
Outside of that, name me 1 Incredibly In demand Item that crafters SUPER SERIOUSLY GUYS need that is repeatedly bought off the AH and NPCd to the point theres never any in stock. Cause like i said
If an Item is really needed and really rare (Hint: Slow seller, but in demand) They're not going to be going for less than NPC price.Items that sell less for their NPC prices are generally either massively over-stocked items (That even with people Buying > NPCing, Wont run out of stock), or Sh*tty items that sell so slow people really dont care what they put them on the AH for as long as it sells,
From what i can tell, The things the OP listed are all either terribly slow selling items, Or something thats in Medium-high demand someone probably put on the AH massively under-cutting in hopes of Selling it before the others in Stock.
Edit: And really, If this is a crafting complaint side, You guys don't want an easy fix, You want the NPC prices dropped so you can continue buying the items for really cheap, instead of doing the logical thing and buying the items for slightly more so the people who NPC them won't make a profit doing that anymore.
