Your inventory size in FFXI starts capped at 30 including gear worn which is definitely not enough space. There is a series of 10 quests which add 5 more slots to your inventory. (They also add 5 slots to each of two different mog house storage types as well.) The quests are all pretty much the same. Get a level of reputation with Jeuno (actually the average of your reputation with the three starting towns) and then trade 4 items to a goblin in Lower Jeuno. The 4 items are always a piece of leather, a metal ingot, some cloth, and a precious gem. These items can be obtained in a variety of ways: crafting, BCNM drops, vendors, and the AH. I did the first in the series recently by buying the items on the AH but I suspect I could have saved a couple thousand gil by buying one of the items from a vendor on the other side of the world. I figure I should look up where everything else comes from since I'm going to want bigger bags again and I might as well buy low if I can. And maybe I can actually makes some moneys selling this stuff on the AH if I actually find a cheap source of them.

Apparently there is a quest to get the starting few gems. It rewards 2 gems, unclear if it is random or if you get to choose from a list. The quest takes place in the shadowrealm but looks to be low level. I already have the item needed! I guess I need to look further into campaigns and the shadowrealm.
I'm also pretty amazed at the price difference between tiers. Gobbiebag VI is practically free! I can probably afford number II soon, but unless I get a painite from the quest there's no way I can do III. Even if I do get a painite from the quest I may well just sell it off regardless... But I need more space!
I may also try farming that level 8 goblin who has a 5k drop and see if the drop rate is any good.
