Are the mimic stones a limited time sale?

The crown store mimics tones, which allow you to craft in any style - are they going to be up there indefinitely or is it a limited time thing with the thieves guild release?

I ask because I thought I was getting a good deal the other day when I bought up the whole mercenary armor motif set for a total of around 10-15k gold (not all that expensive for me right now), but then i turn around trying to find the style stones for the merc set only to realize that they're priced at 80k or more. There's no way I'm going to spend more on style stones than I spent on the motif to begin with, so the mimic stones are really my only option.

They're not listed as a limited time thing, and everything I've heard about them from ZOS implies that they're here to stay.

Having said that, you can get the style material for mercenary by doing group dungeons on a character that knows 1 or more chapters of the motif (the more chapters you know the better your chances of getting the style mat). The final boss has a chance to drop a laurel (if you know the entire motif, the final boss will drop a laurel 100% of the time in a vet dungeon, in a non-vet dungeon the chance is lower).

Not much chance of finding decent dungeon farming groups as a V6 stamblade.
