You are the very reason why you can't expect people to use those other cities.
Use them yourself, first and foremost. And tell others to use them. Then, and only then, will you be able to realistically expect people to use those other cities.

And for what it's worth, at least on Excalibur, i've made all of my sales on Limsa and Gridania and personally always check both before resorting to Ul'Dah

I dont check them either, when you are looking for 10 items its a pain to do 30 searches in 3 areas, I stick to just uldah too unless im looking for maybe 1-2 items, and then it depends on if I have time or not. If my ls is waiting on me to grab food or arrows it's uldah only
