Tradable Ebon Set?

I saw ebon armor pieces in guild stores. Prices are quite high, like 100k. It's dungeon set, right? How is it possible to get tradable pieces?

    They used to drop unbound in Maw of Lorkhaj for about...I want to say 2 weeks. I've got quite a few of these pieces myself.

    Tamriel Unlimited was a mistake. One Tamriel was a bigger mistake

    They are armor pieces from before 1 Tamriel where sets like that were Bind on equip instead of Bind on pickup

    In the time before 1T ( ;) ) worm and ebon and many other cool sets like lich were actually gained by unique methods either overland or in a variety of dungeons, those pieces were bind on equip and kept that bind on equip status as the game transitioned to its current gear farming system. I myself bought my first set of worm cuz back then it was a nightmare to farm (I did manage to farm lich back then though!) :p

    Ebon drops like candy anyway, no reason to pay those rip-off prices.

    People pay crazy prizes for this kind of new old stock.

    A purple ring of the dreugh king slayer sold for 43k in one of my guilds.

    I even wonder if people actually make use of these items or just keep them on a mule to look at them from time to time.

    I think it was about 3 months? It was from one update to the next that they changed them to be BoP.

    I have a couple, as well as a couple of pieces of Viper and Hircine that are not bound.

    I could swear they changed it in an incremental
