Because not everyone considers dungeon gear only for its stats. Anything can be used for glamour, and there is gonna be at least one person that'll want something in the game, so nothing is truly useless.No the problem with dungeon gear is simple that they are often outdated pieces thus even if a dungeon is new only a certain part of the playerbase would even need that as a reward. On top of that there are probably people that have max amount of seals and a lot of the dungeon gear is recycled old stuff so barely any use for glamours.
So no I dont think that people take dungeon gear for granted, its simply the design descision of this game that makes a lot of the dungeon gear useless for quite a big amount of players. I mean people have to just wait for the next patch and they will get better gear or at least get the old stone gear cheaper. So why should they even use dungeon gear?

I mean, people could also sell the green items from the dungeons to an npc vendor for quick gil if they aren't willing to put up with having and/or spending more GC seals.
I believe in and apply the idiom of "a little goes a long way."

I know..thats why I said that probably a big amount of people dont even use them for glamour anymore because they are often reused gear thus some will not feel the need to roll on them. Which means that there are instances where you will be the only one that will roll on something but that this does not necessarily mean that people take rewards for granted but that they simply have no use for them.
I mean I have enough runs where I either got everything because people seemingly did not need anything at all (and did not even open the chests) but also runs where I barely got anything because everyone rolled on them. So the OP might have just been in more runs where people dont care. But that does not mean that people take them for granted.
Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
I know I like to roll Greed on things I don't need but still want because I can turn them in for seals/fc credits. That alone makes anything useful, even if you don't keep it for glamour. And even though the whole reused skin thing is real, some people might actually prefer the reused skin.I know..thats why I said that probably a big amount of people dont even use them for glamour anymore because they are often reused gear thus some will not feel the need to roll on them.
