Another possibility is that the total amount of the plat didn't change that much over the years. But the number of people holding them increased, and more plat is in circulation vs locked inside the bank of very few people.
Looking back the high level tradable raid loots are up for sale much more often, and their prices have dropped, things like white dragon helm, boots of the storm aow helm/leg/mask... which puts plat in the hands of raiders who cash in one item to twink many alts which drive up the demand and possible prices of mid range items (50 to 200k).
