Been trying to buy both for a few days now and I've gotten no hits in zone chat. Neither item has showed up in the AH since day 1 of the promotion. There's tons of Citrine/Garnet/Ametheyst/Malachite ones, and even a few Prismatic and even some of the really old Rose costumes, but no Moonstone Tabards or Chapeaus.
Originally I saw them going for about 125k-150k, so they can't be that much more rare than the other colors (sans Prismatic). Why is nobody selling these? Where are they?
There's a Bazaar forum thread selling a Chapeau right now. You need to wait in the right place, rather than the wrong place.
I'm really just curious why the Moonstone Tabard/Chapeau is almost as common as the other four colors and much easier to get (and much less expensive) than the Prismatic Rose costumes, but there aren't any for sale in the AH or in trade chat, yet there are tons of the other four colors and even the Prismatics for sale...
Not many people want Moonstone Rose sets, so there's lots of supply, but no demand.
If there's lots of supply then the AH should be flooded with Moonstone costumes, not the other way around. Supply dictates a surplus, and the AH is absolutely dry of this specific color. What you say makes no sense.
You realize that there are only 3 sets in the current promo, right? Moonstone isn't one of them.
That came out earlier this year.
Back in January 2014, they would have been popular.
I guess I just needed to check my facts again. There was quite some demand, but not enough supply.
Well, that would explain it then. I thought it was part of the August Rose Regalia promotion, seeing that it was a bright color like the others.
So hardly anyone has them right now then?
As others have said, Moonstone, Garnet and Malachite rose sets are all from the last time the rose promo returned. They might be available at a later time via the auction house or flash sale, but for now they are somewhat rare.
