So, could someone then craft some armor using a really common style, buy a transmog scroll and change it to a REALLY rare style?
The way transmog works is you gotta have BOTH items, the one with the stats you want to keep AND also the one with the desired appearance. I repeat, you must have both items in your bag. They both must be equippable on your character. They must BOTH be of the same armour type (in most other MMOs this is how it is, so you can't mog a full set of light armour into heavy etc, results in people complaining).
The transmog system mentioned above uses the name of the system in World of Warcraft.
However, the stones part is currently how things work in Guild Wars 2.
In both games, there is the item with stats and the item with the appearance, that are combined.
There is also a similar system in Aion, where 2 items are combined, the stats and the skin. Simples.

then dont use them. It's not like Transmogrify Scrolls are hurting you.
As long as I can see through your transmogrify, that is true.
I'd rather have a Transmogrify scroll that turns a player into a cheese wheel
