Hmm, not sure if their price differs in your server economy, but I've never paid that much for them. Though they seem to be a little less common than the heavy duty leather, in my experiences, I would never say they were rare by any means. In fact, I've seen them on the bazaar, and gotten most of them donated by my patrons, or offered for decent prices to the point I dont really need to buy anymore. I definetely wouldn't spend 100k for 7 clasps. Just dont have the need for them because they are common enough that I have bags full of them. I had someone try to sell me a set of 7 before, for 10k a clasp. I thought they were nuts lol.

thats 100k each not just the lot and on our server they are bazaar fodder. Infact I can't remeber buying any apart from a set of 10 and that was 2k each lol.

To me that seems overpriced, but, when they were first implimented I can imagine sets of maybe 8 go for something like that... If there is a tremendously low supply of these on your server I'd say maybe it's reasonable

Bazaar fodder over here too, that's the highest price I've seen on them in ages
I think a lot of players are deleting them now, especially if they are only 1 or 2, although I did get given 10 identical as an early yule pressie the other day, customers can be the sweetiest people sometimes.

The sad thing is that these are one of the "hey do you need..." items I'll pass on I have quite a good stockpile of them... I only wish there were more uses for things like this.

I wish there were less, though the loot schematic/loot items combinations are better than the one-use schematics. But not by much.
I've got two factories and a house full of loot parts and schematics. When I get the urge I've been turning them into item crates. The loot items don't sell, but at least they take less factory space to store.

The most I've paid for my heavy duty clasps are 1K each. I find a lot of them on vendors and bazaars for 1-6K each.
Most of the ones that I have though were given to me for free from guildies, my loving returning customers, andstrangers because they just didn't need it and thought I would have more use for it

/giggle Well at one point they used to sell for that much... like when the aprons first came out hehe somebody either necro'd a post or hasn't checked current pricing, most of the time i get those for free from ppl just wanting to clear the junk out of their inventory lol
