When a trader goes out of stock the item get removed from his selling list, I seen black dye, shards, ectos and even silver dye not being on the trader selling list at some point in the game.

Actually, i got my first black in around 800+ hours of gameplay in a group with 7 henchies. Maybe drops have increased, but i don't really have a past to base it on.

I had two black dye drops back when the game was first released. I didn't know what they were worth so I dyed a piece of starter armour and accidentally dyed my pouch

Ever since then I haven't been lucky at all, while hearing mates w00t about the black dyes they get

Hmm. I think you're right. Rare as hell for me. We're talking < 10 ever in my presence and only 3 to me, since 3-4 BWEs before launch. It's been hundreds of hours since I've seen a black dye drop.

In the last two days I've seen 2. (Neither of them to me, but that's beside the point.)

The first time I played the game I found a dye in pre-searing. Sold it at the merchant for 5 gold.

I picked up two black dyes in the past two days, having never seen one before. Now I don't know what to do with them, because some say you can't make anything selling them to traders, others say you can't get anything for them from other players. So I guess they'll just sit in storage for a bit.

Damn, I wish I realized at the time how rare black dye was. My ele is completely decked out in black/silver blend.

Looks nice though...

Although, after hearing that black is rare, have only found one since. Go figure.

I only play about an hour a day if that so I dont expect to find to many dyes, but my main chr. has only found about 3 or 4 black. then I started a seconed chr. and at level 1, I walked out of the city gate and the first 2 skales I killed droped a black and a silver. I couldnt belive it(course, hes lvl 8 now and in postsearing and I have found only 1 dye(blue) since then...LOL)
