Money Guide Here You go

Go to Upper Jeuno H-6 Talk to Champalpieu Buy as MANY Rolanberry as you can but keep some space for the Items you be Getting from Crawlers. Now Head to Crawlers nest For the money.I suggest You only bring armor and if u have ninja Some Shihei. At lvl 68 i was getting aggro so u might wanna come at lvl 75 So you have no trouble or bring a buddy

Here Are some Pictures from ffxi.somepage.com where you should go

Image

As you Can see the Guardian Crawlers Pops where You camp Worker Crawlers to level and no people cna not stela it cause it will be claimed when poped.Here Waste all your rolanberry to Get Rolanberry 881. At I-8
In first map.

Image

Here you Can see where Drone crawlers pop you gotta drop down on it (Lizards and bees aggro here to 67 and under) Now here Waste all your Rolanberry 881 to get Rolanberry 874 Drop rate on this is good. You go to H-7 on the second map

Image

Here You Waste all Your Rolanberry 874 Poping the queen Crawler (I didn't go after these so i don't noe any info) For something else want to pop look under. D-7 On the Third map

Image

These are what i was killing The drop rate to pop this thing sucked had to use 5 sometimes.So here Waste all your Rolanberry 874 to pop this if u want to kill this instead of Queen Crawler.F-7 in first map

After You are Done with Go to Selbina And talk to Vuntar at H-9 talk to him them start trading them (I don't noe if u cna trade more then one at a time my friend was trading) Then You should make money (IF u bring a freidn you have chance of Getting more money) if you qish to continue doing this go ahead. Have fun with this guide piece out

This is pretty common info, available at any number of sites with quest info. Most sites I've seen just tag the actual Selbina quest with the info on how to get and upgrade the rolanberries.

If you're going to use it for money making, you should stop after getting Rolanberry 874's. 874 are worth 2k gil to the NPC, and the 864's are only worth 3k. Considering that it takes you 2+ 874 Berries to pop the Matron/Queen, it's not worth it.

864 Berries are useful for popping and killing Awd Goggie, who has a decent Drop rate on Royal Jelly - EX, so cannot be sold, but useful for high-level cooking recipies.

This is a poor gil-making method due mostly to the fact that if someone else is doing it, you're out of luck. Also, the Crawler NM's pop unclaimed - so if there are other people around when you spawn it, they /can/ steal it. It's also highly random, so one run you may make a fortune, but another run may barely cover the cost of the berries you started with.

Finally - the reason there are multiple spawn points for each berry upgrade is that one is in an 'easy' spot, the other one is in a 'hard' spot, with aggro/linking mobs around. The harder spots have(supposedly) better pop rates.

Not worth Premium, IMO.
