Gurthang has just left Hobbiton.

Most Dwarves were never on any side. They cared about their own kind and expanding their wealth. Often they did not care how they acquired this gold, as long as they got what they wanted. Take, for instance, the necklace wrought with a simaril inside it. Thingol thought the necklace was beautiful, and said he was the owner of the silmaril and therefore the necklace. But the dwarves said they had made the piece, and so they killed Thingol and stole the necklace.

Which only shows that material wealth can bring a dwarf to do almost anything.
