Gold isn’t hard to come by long as you do the weeklies for coffer keys and the dailies offering 800+ gold when they are up. The chests from the weeklies can give upwards of 16k if you’re lucky.
I routinely see them for Pvp gear.

I see them every week and that’s what my 4 public crafts get used on.

i think 5k is good but if it’s too much for you you can always specify what youre comfortable with in your request on trade chat. if someone doesnt mind theyll hit you up.
or get a guild and throw it all in the guild crafting orders.

Tek is honestly right tbf.
They did, lol.
Their main gripe is people using the whisper addon, not reading the offer and demanding a higher tip than the op wanted to pay.
The addon is poo and encourages that sorta stuff.
It’s just silly to turn that complaint into “crafters expect too much”

Honestly, I feel like there should be a rule about automating whispers like this. It always pissed me off with /ginvite spam, and it sucks here too.
Like, if you’re gonna pester someone, at least have the cajones to do it with some effort.

I find it more rare for anyone to even suggest/ask for a specific amount personally. Even when I do crafting myself I don’t ever ask. You want me to click it, fine, if I get some gold it’s all good. Sure I’d like more, but it’s the lowest effort gold in game for me and I’m not gonna argue with it.
I’d love to be able to just fill orders occasionally without having to trade chat pvp, Tbh.
I don’t know the best way to achieve that without it being abused/automated/too competitive.
Is why I like crafting for the AH sometimes. Set it and forget,unless someone is determined to drop 400 reagents every time you try to sell a handful…
Exactly - I have no problem with market rates, I have an issue with Blizzard’s asinine system that adds friction by forcing a synchronous exchange between players and comes with a lack of transparency.
They could have easily built a similar system including KP and crafting trees and relevant crafting with BoP mats and still used the AH for base items with NPCs or just a UI element to add BoP mats and set ilevel.

Still waiting for teh answer to my Question OP
The amount I tip depends on what it is I want crafted
For example in season 1 when teh crafted bow was BIS - I tipped 20k to have it made if it was BIS this season ( its not ) it would of been 10k for the recraft
gear -first craft 5k , recrafts 2k .
Always supplied r3 matts
i dunno on one hand it sounds kind of like youre saying “i made the decision to spend gold to further my ability to craft. i am ENTITLED to compensation for this.”
I know it’s easy to make gold if you want to, but I mainly do m+ which makes you no gold and is pretty costly with consumables and what not. I’m not complaining, I have enough gold to do what I want…just explaining why I don’t have 5k gold extra to spend on a craft that I can get for free.
Would also prefer you could just use public orders and be able to set the minimum quality like a direct order.
More or less entitled than the person who didn’t invest in the craft they want to benefit from, and refuses to pay the price asked?

Some people here are like “crafters deserve to be paid” when the people OP is talking about are the ones price gouging. I doubt you would defend Mcdonalds trying to charge $15 for a burger.
I had a guy want 10k for a plain 675 belt with no embellishments. I just laughed in his face and went with the next fastest addon auto reply that said tip anything.
Had one ask for 250K gold tip on a Rank 5 belt I provided everything for!
Make it yourself then.
lmao.

Benefits of a free market. If McDonalds could get away with charging the $15 then you can bet they absolutely would.
A crafter who thinks they are worth a 10k commission is free to do so…and the buyer is free to wait or shop around for a better offer.

Level your own professions.
Put these crafters out of business if you believe they’re so greedy.
