Can we get rid of prisms please?

Its actually the lower costing items that sell bucket loads that make people the most gil. Its easy to sell prism, because there is high demand, and they dont take long to craft. People are also lazy, and would rather purchase them than craft them themselves.

And not everyone has crafters up to 50 in order to crafter them either.

You have a point there but at the same time think about how many people would be happy, if you could just put on what you wanted without having to worry about if the mb is out of said prisms happened to me recently there where no carp prisms for sell. I'm not sayin it doesn't help crafters at all Im just sayin its an inconvenience and it seems like the devs noticed it and went to one instead of 5. So why not take it a step further and just get rid of it all and just use a system similar to swtor or something thats alot more simple and convenient instead of inconvenient

To take your example of SWOTR, the mentioned ingame currency for the glamouring process in FFXIV is a glamour prism and it is fine.
Only Issues are this:

The only issues with glamour is 1) there's no glamour gallery that stores glamour pieces, and 2) glamour works on a item-by-item basis, and should be on a slot-by-slot basis, saved alongside the gearset itself.
