I never played FFXI passed level 10 so I don't remember really.

The idea I came up with in this thread though would cost about as much to do as any other craft.
It could also possibly result in a better spending > profit yield than other crafts do, depending on how much time you choose to spend doing it. Even if you didn't spend a lot of time in it though it could still result in a fair amount of profit.

Plus the detail contained in the original posts explain how the system could operate at much the same difficulty as other crafts do, so 'hopefully' it wouldn't result in a large amount of wasted time, money and profanity.
