Players severly under cutting shards!

I can understand it from one perspective: IIRC, you can only buy NPC cotton bolls in Ul'dah - at the Weaver's Guild. If you're in Limsa, for example, the market is the convenient option.

Also, while I'm here: who drops Cotton Boll and Diremite Web? I haven't had much luck with Diremites so far.

Diremite Webs don't drop from Diremites. Surprise! They drop from Banemites.

I don't know if anything drops Cotton Bolls. If they do, it's not worthwhile to farm because Botanists can gather it. It's a Grade 15 Harvest item in Bentbranch Meadows.
