No mention of FBSS at all. Is that because you know that it's price is being skewed and you don't want to admit it since that doesn't support your argument, or you don't know that its price is skewed because you didn't play classic?

What's a "price skew"? If you mean items cost more here then they did on live, well that's a terrible argument because prices varied from server to server on live, and while some are higher here (in your example FBSS), some are also lower then they were on live. I don't see how this affects the grand scheme of things.
I used the items I did to highlight the very top end of both markets as an example to gauge just how much platinum is floating around in relation to live. The fact that the cost of these items is virtually in sync with what I remember them going for on live tells me that the high end person at most probably is only willing to spend around 400-500k on an item max in either market. There will always be exceptions, and some items have had more offered on them due to rarity (see fungus staffs), but in general I think regardless of what's going on at lower price points, there simply isn't enough platinum on the server to facilitate the
need for a money sink quite yet.
