You can't find vanity skins for caster weapons. They may exist in theory but the frequency at which they pop up for sale is ridiculously low - at least for weapons with perfect (collector) stats. So while physicals get to collect sexy gear for their characters, casters are basically stuck choosing between collector, crafted, and (usually bad) green weapons.
The best thing you can do with lots of money right now is to roll a warrior and start filling him up with vanity weapons. Until there's a serious change to the game's item system casters just don't have that option.
Peace,

The problem with caster weapons is that the "perfect" ones with collector stats just don't show up in drops. How many times have I gotten a low req staff of Death Magic only to find that it has a 20% recharge rate for Divine Prayers or some other garbage I don't want.

Plus, I have very little storage space.

Here's the thing, I have the same problem sort to speak except i do have items in mind I wanna buy but my chars are set real well at this point and I don't really need. I have quite a bit of sum in pure gold, saveral times your current amount to put it lightly, items that are gonna net me atleast 100k+ more and money invested in 176 rubies 61 sapphires and a couple of ecto as well as 74 CC, not much but its there for me to invest in gold I have no room for.
Thing what I'm trying to say is that the whole point of getting rich is to reach for the skies, meaning get as rich as mutha........... possible. If you enjoy GW and will probly stick around for the next saveral games, why have set yourself so well that you can just blow money on FOW costing armors and weapons w/o flinching? yes, only a few of us can ever get to that point, I myself have only FOW armor on my monk and thank god I don't like the way the rest of the classes fow looks like. Thing is, I'm not even close to getting there yet, till then, gotta stay hungry. I have 6 chars and each equipped w/ a bevy of items I'm comfortable w/, yet I'm still waiting for ANET to increase the storage cap to 5 mill or more just to see if I can cap it. I know thats not much to alot of people here, but its a goal I have yet to reach :\
Oh and not to make ya feel bad but I had that gold amount during my south shiverpeak days w/ my warrior b4 I discovered farming, so welcome to a milestone.

I have a warrior, my problem is I'm not much on vanity, so I don't spend much. And my goodness did I overfarm before I stopped. I have 900k in storage, about 75k in pocket change on my 3 PVE toons, over 400 dyes (including 19 black and 67 silver), 115 Bleached Shells which I shoulda dumped before Factions came out, 90 Candy Canes, and all sorts of other stuff. No point in giving anything to guildies, because everybody in my guild is freaking rich already (our guild hall had every NPC within 3 hours of Factions being released on April 28th).
What's funny is that most of us got that way from pure grind and not buying and selling. The last high-ticket item I sold was Victo's Axe when it was new, for 100k. Two weeks later I bought the shield for 85k, so that kinda evened out (moreso when I accidentally sold it to the merchant for 35 gold. ARGH). Lately all I do is Alliance Battles, random arena, and foolishly hope my guild will get serious about GVG once more. So I know what it's like to have it and not need it. And still sometimes I go and farm in the desert just to pass a little time, and wind up with even more money...
