In particular, we noticed minimal traction in filling these chests with raw gems if that is the request. We wonder what would entice people to provide raw gems or other valuable items that might be hard to gather or carry.
I'm going to have Lia request raw sapphire, topaz, and fire opals to better stock the shelves with low-level enhancements and eventually higher-level enhancements and resistances (as her skill improves).

one of my characters would be more likely to fill a direct request for raw gems than just randomly drop things at saddlebags
If Lia asked Charlee for sapphires and they mutally agreed on compensation either coin or credit, she'd go out and fill the order but if she was just out in the ice caves doing her thing and gathering sapphires she'd likely just use them for herself. (just an example)

So the chests in question are labeled "items meant for Lia". It's meant to be a deposit of goods for Lia specifically so she can more easily work on supplying the Saddlebag with goods. As it is meant to be a trade for goods Lia can use, how we hope to run it is the goods are dropped off for only Lia to take out and then the gatherer take the appropriate coin for delivery. We are simply trying to figure out what most people are willing to do this kind of trade for.
Part of the gold the Saddlebag makes goes into the required materials for members to craft. Those funds are being allocated for this, so a private discussion between Lia and the gatherer will not do. All other guild members and Riven especially will need to be involved on agreeing on an appropriate value. However, with that said, I'm sure we could have a discussion on the discord with Barley to see on an agreed trade if that is preferred.
