I agree. You know how much shards costs in my server?
Right now 80gil for Water, Lightning, Wind and Ice Shards, 70 for Earth and 50 something for Fire. WTF is going on? Who sets up the price so high, it was 30-40gil a few days ago, now it's so expensive and I've noticed that the same retainer is selling a lot of it in different section.
I spent over 3 hours the other day farming for shards, I refuse to buy it for that price!
