Economy - Plat

[Saylord]

I have come back after about a 2 1/2 year break and the pricing on items increased, but not only that, the availability of items is much higher. Now this is expected, but I see a ton of items 30k - 1mil. When in the past it was much more common to see 20k - 200k at much less frequency. Where is the plat coming from? Are people killing enough guards to inject this much plat into the economy? I am just curious, pretty impressive how the economy has grown.
