You learn the "true" value of items by playing the game on the server. You will probably lose some money and some opportunities to earn more money along the way. Its a wonderful game. Like other things, btw, the best way to learn is to make friends you trust and ask questions along the way. P99 is actually filled with plenty of very helpful folks despite all the boogeyman conspiracies of RMT traders attempting to manipulate the price of items.

As for price changes this is part of the game. There is no "static" economy --- the content is static, but the server is changing all the time. Where people play, how much they play their mains, how often the make alts...all that stuff goes into controlling the supply and demand of items...i.e. the market price.
