Inflate/deflate depending on the price of the vicious hammers.

I have no idea if an increase in demand for an item would cause it's price to rise. OffTopic: Dear god your spelling.

Increase in demand = higher prices but MUCH MUCH MUCH easier scrolling and godly weapons = lower prices so who knows. Im gonna lay of merchanting for 2 or so weeks after the hammer because prices wil be crazy.

LOL... I love when 12 year old kids apply economics to a stupid game where when you trade, the 1st word someone says is, offer.. Stop trying to predict Maple... You can't, its a bunch of little kids typing in random numbers...

Maple has a player driven economy, and as such, you can more or less predict where things are going based on certain information. People only say "offer" to test the waters. Either they don't know the price of what they have, or they want to see if you do.

You can apply economics to selling lemonade from the sidewalk in front of your house. :D

Inflation and deflation applies to the aggregate prices in the economy, it's not a term that pertains to ONE ITEM. That's just a general increase or decrease in price. And you are able to predict maple story prices; economic concepts are applicable to this game, to a certain extent.
