Is this a smart way of getting money?

What Ralath said. Gonna pull numbers out of the air for this example. It takes 16 summoned beast leather LQ to comp up 1 SBL Reg. You could sell the LQ for 5 coppers each. This equates to 80 copper if you sold the LQ to the NPC. You can only sell the reg to the NPC for 60 copper. <--- may not be exact numbers, but it works out like that for all of them. Same for decomping. You can sell the reg. for 70 copper, but if you decomp 1, it decomps down to 14, this equates to 70. You lose copper no matter which way you go with it.
