seems like they are still available...

?

Yeah, what do you mean by "still available"?

I mean, I have like 14 of them in the bank or something like that. So they will eventually go on the AH.

Just that the Nethershard vendor is still present in the capital city, so you can purchase them if you somehow still have shards.

That's fine, tried to adjust the numbers but still having 24 on one toon, can be spent on the bandages/felstones that being unique can't be purchased at once.

Oh strange.... But so many people are hoarding them... Might take a while for price to go up.

They are technically "still available", yes. But they aren't in that, someone can't today log on and decide they are going to farm up the shards to buy one. Though they'll be "available" via the AH for a long time to come.

Was nice of them to leave the vendors in for a bit so people can spend any of their excess shards.

This is actually good for me. I did several invasions on various characters, but only remembered to spend the shards from my main.

Same here. Wasn't interested in the invasions so never had any shards. Prices already went up from 300 to 800 so quickly bought one incase it rises even more.

They will likely stay in the 1k range or even lower for at least another year. A lot of people have stockpiled them, as it seemed like a good long term investment given that they're technically no longer obtainable (as in, there is no way to generate shards anymore). However, actual scarcity (and thus price increases) won't happen until the people who hoarded them have sold theirs off and the stockpiles are left with the few big AH players on each server, and that is likely to take a while. Hell, if anyone here missed getting one and still need it, just PM me and I'll give you one for free.
