Is a fine idea to keep prices in check, But 6gp for a gem bag is a killer.

As soon as the suggestion box opens again I have what I hope is a solution.
Non-weight reduced containers rendered trivial to buy and make, one of each is given to every new character.
Weight reduced containers (and, well, all containers) are removed from loot.
Weight reduced ones are added to crafting, at their various tiers and DCs and recipes.
This doesn't specifically address gem pouches so much though I will say that this does include adding weight reduced gem pouches - gems have no weight but gem dust does.
EDIT: As part of this I would turn "collect loot into containers" to ALWAYS ON by DEFAULT, since it's sort of buried away and hard for new folks to understand. If they started with basic containers though, it would be more intuitive.

That looks like a great suggestion to me.
Also much agreed on the auto-loot thing, it's something I always forget to do on a new character until a few dead mobs in and it would be a very edge case to wanting it off in the first place as I don't think lacking the container even matters.

Love it, But I still think the price for a gem bag could be a bit higher, Also, Most bags are for sale, They are just.. spreaded all over Arelith, Honestly, Same with tools etc.
Something something, Coffee.
But yeah, Things currently are eighter made to easy or frustrating depending on who you are.
As crafter, You could still undersell the now npc 3k scrollcases*, I guess. Not worth it to most. 6gp gem bags, (Honestly, they were always over priced and you could make them with some luck and 1 skill point) Yeah, I don't see a merchant-crafter make those no more. (And they were so fun for low lvl tailors).
The gem dust thing: I always kept gems on my, another bag with dust I stored.
Alternative suggestion for the low scroll cases and gem bags:
Gem bag: Remove sinew from the list (and still fix price/stop selling them by npc)
Scrollcase: Remove copper ingot from the list.
