So I figured I would make use of the 30% coupon and unlock some of the crafting guilds I haven't unlocked yet. These are on lower level alts, some of which are still in the early stages of crafting for various reasons. I just started one in the Tailoring guild and she is still in the first stage of guild reputation. I would like to purchase the unlock for this guild for the later stages, but it does not appear as an option in the store. I know I don't have any other tailors guilded, so I know I don't own this guild. Am I only able to purchase guild access after completing the first stage of guild reputation?
Just wasn't sure if it was a bug. I wish they'd uncouple guild access unlocks from the characters so that you could purchase them at will.
Yes, I am aware of this, however I know I have not previously purchased Tailoring Guild access. This is the first tailor I've ever actually raised, since my fiance keeps a maxed tailor. The question is at what point is the character able to access the guild access unlock from the store.

As soon as they can join the guild (expert <craft>)

The character in question is an Expert Tailor. She is also in the Tailoring guild and completed the guild introduction quest that grants a guild reputation item. She has crafted her first set of guild reputation items. As she just started with the guild yesterday, she is only a Guild Initiate in terms of reputation. I cannot see the Tailor Guild access in the store while on this character. I do not own the Tailor Guild access nor do I have any other tailors.
So...does the access to the store unlock only become available after the Guild Initiate tier of reputation is complete?
This is the only other explanation I have, you cannot buy this while VIP as you are currently renting access.; I have characters who can buy the guild and haven't earned a single bit of rep yet, so something has to be going on

Nope, haven't been VIP since December. It's kinda baffling. I just picked up the Woodworker guild yesterday on another character, and I can see the guilds for my tinkerer, though not buying them as she maxed out Jeweler while I was still VIP. Maybe it's just super delayed in recognizing that the character having issues is in the Tailoring guild. Boo. =\
The purchase of the crafting guild unlock is only possible after you complete the expert tier and receive and then complete the quest to learn to use the "superior" crafting facilities. This is counter intuitive as you can join a crafting guild and gain rep all the way upto apprentice without purchasing the guild unlock.

Very counter-intuitive, but would certainly explain what's going. Going to see if I can get enough leather together to complete the tier.
Thanks!
ETA: Just completed the expert tier and completed the quest for the superior workbench. I am now able to see the Guild Access in the store. Major Thanks!
On another note, seems kind of strange that we have a superior workbench quest as we're able to use the bench before even completing it.
Vip characters do not need to purchase guild access to increase guild reputation past acquaintance. Once vip runs out they will no longer be able to increase guild reputation (over acquaintance) without purchasing the guild unlock. If you reach maximum guild rep while vip you don't receive any additional benefit from purchasing the guild unlock when vip expires (until a new guild rep tier is added).
If you are certain that you have completed the quest to access the use of superior tailoring facilities (craft three specified items for trainer and give them to people) you should have received the passive skill superior workbench access http://lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Ques...h_%28Tailor%29 check your tailor have they earnt this passive ability?
