It's because of Aldgoat leather. It's used in quite a bit of crafting, and you can't buy it anywhere but the MB. The only two ingredients for it are Alumen and Aldgoat Skin, which can be farmed easily, (I think I got nearly 200 Aldgoat skins in a short session while a miner friend of mine was gathering about 30 Alumen). On my server, Aldgoat Skins are practically worthless on the market, but Alumen sells for about 100 gil each. The finished leather on the other hand sells for closer to 500 gil each, and can be crafted pretty early on in leatherworker....
