Dragon eggs were up to 75K each yesterday. Bought 10 at 38k each just last friday. Seems someone bought them all up but you would think there would be enough in game to prevent this.
Just one more area of the economy gone wacko.

You could just sell them now and wait for them to drop again. :P

Where are new ones supposed to be entering the economy from?
Frozen Crystal lockbox was a Black Ice Shaping pack = no eggs
Waukeen/Tymora boxes = reduced drop rates, events were a bit ago
Zen profession packs = most recent promotion was the Forgehammer of Gond, but haven't been on sale for a while, plus they're a big gamble
When there aren't many available, you need to look at the underlying factors rather than crying foul.

I think you are right though becky - the lack of events producing them or the means to get them except older lock boxes - and that is a long shot at best, is causing a shortage of sorts. I had 20 or 30 of these from earlier events, but only started buying them a few weeks back (but i have been watching the price for months)
So anyone know what type of shirt and pants warlocks will use?
Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see any purple pants/shirts for sale on the market these days.

You must be "doing it wrong"; there are hundreds of gemmed shirts and pants for sale on the AH every day.
I've been hearing leather.

Hmm. Ok. I bought several purple pants and shirts with many of my toons, but could not find any "purples" for sale when I looked a few days ago. Maybe I searched incorrectly.

It's lifted right out of the D&D rules. Warlocks have light armor proficiency; wizards have none.
I also think it would be a bit of a leatherworking overload while leaving the tailors with too little to do. I will say that Makos appears to be dressed in cloth robes though.
I'm not sure exactly what people have been finding on preview (I can't get on because it crashes).

1) Items drop for them on the preview shard.

"Professions: There are new "Emperor's" Uncommon Shirt and Pant items for all classes. They are invisible to the naked eye and come with a Free Appearance Change to transmute onto any existing Shirts and Pants. They require Level 18 of the respective profession, 25,000 Astral Diamonds, a Dragon Egg and Ornate Pants or Shirt as appropriate."
People are buying them up to either flip or use for this cosmetic.

What you EXACTLY mean by 18 of respective profession anyway? And will they be BoP or BoE?
My CW's "respective profession" is Tailoring. My Hunter's "respective profession" is Leatherworking.
Make sense?
Just checked, and as of now the shirt/pants are BOE.

Bought some for a new CW I leveled to 60 just a couple days ago.
. . . Most dragon egg gemstones were stored in extraplanar dimensions, so dragons (and others) couldn't find them, which most of them would have collapsed when Mystra fell, as Mystra's Weave was the fabric holding the outer planes apart, while the inner planes (like the elemental and energy planes) remained largely intact. The Abyss is an exception however for the outer planes, it drifted and merged with the Elemenal Planes, now known collectively as the Elemental Chaos.
. . . These gems vary in size sometimes, but the oldest of them are smaller than real dragon eggs, a by-product of the ancient magics used to encase them in statis and transform them into magical gemstones. With all these dragon eggs now in Neverwinter... and the rise of the Tyranny of Dragons... I would be worried for the saftey of the realm and those who hold these eggs!
