I want to make a shop selling forge materials. Would it be easier to ask what things you DONT use rather than what you do? Is this something forgers would be interested in?

definitely, and there are topics around here like that already
there are 2 questions you would want to ask I think:
- would players rather buy raw drops or forging ingredients made out of them
- which drops or ingredients players prefer to use
Corrupt 1
Draining 1
Fate paste 2
Invig cat 2
Protect paste 2
Boon remove 1
Then the usual gums!
Sujis is my go to forge shop, but like yesterday things were unstocked so another store would be great!
As long as you’re fairly close to those prices I’d be sure to use you from time to time

I like to go to EZPZ or Suji’s for any forging ingredient needs.
If I do forge I generally use compound boons, with assorted gums, setting+decon 3 resin, maybe some vigour catalysts, solvents, and an experimental paste here and there.

I always welcome some healthy competition 
Have a look at my shop (best found through direct portals at TNT and Hunt Hive), those are essentially all the most-bought ingredients. There’s a few others but they’re more niche.
Yup, unfortunately there is a gigantic shortage on hopper eyes/cores and bitter/spicy beans (note to OP, these items will decide whether you’ll get customers or not) It’s impossible to keep these stocked. That’s why i’ve opened the ingredients using those up for custom-order only

Here’s my list of what I believe are commonly used ingredients in forging. Basically I would use Suji’s prices as a benchmark as I know he does all the maths and spreadsheets required to calculate costs and profit margins… I am constantly living in fear of the day that Sujis 10c Paint shop opens. 
Compounds:
- Pure Boon 1, 2, 3
- Draining Boon 1
- Corrupted Boon 1
Pastes:
- Protection 2
- Boon Boost 2
- Invigoration 1, 2
- Stabilization 1,2
- Fate Paste 2
Gums
- All of them except the Trait Expansion
Catalysts
- Vigor Catalyst 2
- Defect Reversal
Solvents
- Boon Removal 1
- Quirk Transmute
Resins
- Setting
- Deconstruction 3

Can never have enough forge shops. Pastes and catalyst needed.
I would argue theres also a niche demand for corrupt or draining boon 2 for totem forging, but for the most part this is it

Thank you all so much!! Suji not trying to overtake anyone by any means. I just really enjoy collecting and crafting. Do not at all enjoy forging. Haha

Stabilisation Paste 2 is missing from your list
I don’t use stabilisation paste myself, just protection 2
Don’t worry about it! Competition is not an insult, it’s the sign of a healthy economy

These item lists are very helpful! Hopefully going to look into mass production soon!
Competition is helpful, and gives time to re-stock those hard items where there are shortages!
