I can't help but feel that way when they spend like 300-600k on a single pot of dye. Especially when many such rare and expensive dyes are only marginally different colour tone wise to the very cheap non-rare versions.

glamour is the true and only endgame.
I wouldn't complain about it since I'm rolling in dough selling them at high price.
Well...what else do you use your gil for? Repairs? *snicker*
I'm more surprised that the dyes haven't been used as rewards for potsherds or something yet. But then again, it's in line with SE's general policy - stats are transient, glam is forever.
Black and White dyes are easy to farm if you have more than 2 lvl 60 retainers. On my server, When I'm farming them I flood the market so much people undercut me all the way down to 50k a pop. When I'm not farming for them and a big patch hits, prices soar to 200-300k. Basically all it takes is 5 people with 2 lvl 60 retainers each to price lock the market. (I have 8 lvl 60ilvl 200-210 retainers). I was averaging like 10-20 black & whites each per week doing quick ventures when I remembered to resend them.
I have seen white dye is now at around 300K on Leviathan, it is rather crazy.
Hope mine sells, lol
Sometimes the particular tones of other gear requires a darker or lighter shade of black to work well though, ahaha. Though as insane as I can be with my money<laziness policy, I can't see myself spending that much on a dye.
That's....crazy.
On Carbuncle Pure White Dye is only like 10k and Jet Black is about 30k.
Huh.... I could never get into glamour that much. I was always satisfied with the armor they release. I would only ever do it for..... stupid, personal reasons. Anyway I recall one day i used to sell non rare dye for 100k, in the next hour. Always found it funny how fast that went.
Just leave this here (I made this screeshot 5 mins ago):

At the beginning I think returning players have no concept for item value.
Finally I found myself old player just keep the old outdate value in my mind.
Getting a G8 map is much easier and each map was 250K some weeks ago.
So this 400K pot is not really expansive as the demand is so high.
Now the system generates a lot of gils, we should not saving the gils like we did at 2.x ^^;
400K for a dye is expensive no matter how you slice it, especially when you're gonna be using another color or a different glamour later on anyway. Despite me having a lot of gil, I'm not stupid enough to blow it all on stuff like dyes.
Beauty comes at a high price~<3
